.......that get done, that make me feel like I have actually accomplished something!!!
These rainy days indoors have inspired me to finish up some of the UFO's littering the studio.
First done is the BOM for Sandy's Woolie Buddies group. She is designing a pattern for each block. I decided to do my on denim with wool appliques. It would make is more of a usable quilt, rather than another wall hanging. I am running out of space to hang things!!! The wool is from a vintage blazer, and the yarn is vintage also. The little wrapper from the yarn is in the photo.It says the thread is best washed in Ivory Snow!!!!! The denim came from my daughter's jeans!
The next is some doodling I did on some found book covers. More about those tomorrow, on my
other blog!
And, finally, my old Longaberger magazine basket, whose cloth cover had seen better days, finally got a new one!!! I found some wonderful upholstery remnants at the thrift store, and used one of them for the cover, and recycled some muslin for the bottom of the cover. After, I had it all together, I remembered I had wanted to stuff the underside, so it could be used as a pin cushion. But, I am NOT going to pull it apart now!!! I'll applique a pin cushion to the underside at a later date (yup, I just turned this lid back into a UFO again!!! LOL)
And, my signature blocks are in the mail!!!
Linda's birthday blocks were finally done!!! Yay!! Here are two of them - I used all different fabrics (even a bit of the fabric I won in
Gene's giveaway!)
So, I am on a roll, I hope to do a little bit each day, creatively, as long as my muse is awake and inspiring me to move on!!!
