Latest Shopping Finds

I found a patchwork pincushion pattern from Hello my name is Heather site. and I am going to work with this cherry fabric and give it a go. Nice to have some simple gifts ready to go for the upcoming birthday's, don't you agree?



I now own a Jelly Roll made by my LQS to make a Boxed Square quilt from Mary Johnson. This will be simple but a new technique for me.

Some sale fabric to make napkins. I found this great tutorial at Sisterchoice blog site. If you go to the Dec. 2007 archive and scroll down you will see it. Fantastic!

Then there are a couple pillowcases in the works for dad, brother, and nephew. These fabrics are based on interest and locations for them.


For my niece I have already cut out a twisted sister pattern using some fun Princess and knight fabric.

Finally some great yarn from my friend Caroline. Her on-line shop is fun filled with new yarn every week with new inspirations creeping upon her daily.So I ordered two great color and then she threw in a Christmas surprise of the Lolita colorway which is the pinker of the three. The red one is called tanager and then the painted bunting.
