Who woulda tho't..read about this hint for storing bobbins. Went directly to my office supply store for a box of 25..cost about $7. Plastic spiral notebook binders! These will hold 19 bobbins per, but I am cutting them in half, & as you can see, bobbi
DISASTER STRUCK! Made this mug rug ITH..and started a quilt with diff bikes for my cycle loving son. Got 4.5 of them finished and my machine screamed bloody murder and froze solid. It's so locked the hand wheel won't move. Is not thread in the bob
Got Legs? Basketcase's design dresses up this leatherette shoulder bag. I asked a while back if it could be done (the embroidery)--well, see for yourself. What fun I'll have strutting around with these "strutting legs"...it will be like having a ne
Little purses I made for little girls. We've been chasing a blood disorder for several months, and the medical lab gals have been wonderful. Most of them have little girls. Gifts for them. Meantime, been having physical therapy for torn rotator cuff
Firebird by katulle...I LOVE it! Afraid to begin on very sheer black shoulder wrap. It was daunting project, but stitched out beautifully. I want to do it again!
ITH tissue holder I got a brainstorm w/this one--to use some lace trim that had ribbon already attached...instead of fabric top. Pleased with end results. DBC are the best & I have truly enjoyed my scholarship here. Alas, it is almost expired!

This quilt I will keep. I do a lot of charity quilts, but I've spent hours - days - months on this hand quilted, machine applique of SBSUE and Sam. I washed the crayola marking out, dried, and hugged it tight. I aim to be selfish and call it "MINE"
A friend asked if we could create an ITH purse-- like a hipster-- to carry a mini iPad or reader, etc. I played around this wkend and came up with one that fits my 7" Android tablet. But I'm thinking I might leave my heavy shoulder bag at home, and be
SB Sue and Sam, applique 5x7 blocks for a quilt. Am up to #25 and only 2 repeats, but more designs to choose. Been collecting for a while. I just adore ITH applique. Trying to do one a day, but other projects get in the way.
I've been making mug rugs & coasters for the nurses who've been infusing my husband w/his cancer drug. They've been so kind! Most of the designs I've added have come from this site--from cuties. Thank you girls!!
More mug rugs for the nurses..took them today when we had another treatment. The mats were a hit with the ladies, tho I had to explain what a 'mug rug' is. There were enough mats to share with the station down the hall. This was our last trip for a mon
pen/pad case. I finally got my pen/pad installed (had it for 6 mo.)& knew it needed storage case, so made one today.Pink pocket has side zipper for usb cord-back pocket for pen -whatever. Love these dancers, use them often, but don't remember where I got
