i am back on track with this post.
not much to share as i am sort of taking a break from the holiday sewing rush.
i have finished the top for my cousin’s quilt. she had a little boy the 1st part of December. the quilt was simple to put together. i used a charm pack of Pure & some brown Kona cotton.
i am backing it with fleece. i just need to quilt it & bind it.
i came across this great blog Thirty Hand Made Days & i love it. i got these great thank you post cards from there which i am sending out for some gifts i got. Mique has a lot of great crafts & ideas on her site.
super cute!!!!
a new semi related to quilting project that i have started. like the rest of you i have several old quilting magazines that i can not part with because there are projects/ideas in them that i might need someday. so….. awhile back i got this idea from someone on Twitter & it has become a new project for me for 2012.
nope i won’t be using my sewing machine for this. i will be using my scanner. i have started going through the old magazines & tearing out the projects/ideas that i want to keep. i then scan them into pdf files. heck of a good idea. i love Twitter for stuff like that. it takes time to do this. that is why its a project for all of 2012. i did one today so i have a head start.
i have another long weekend coming up so i hope to get the quilting done on the baby quilt & maybe work on a couple other things.
happy sewing.

Cute quilt, great cards, and such a good idea on scanning those patterns in! I need to do that myself – before I drown in quilting magazines!
