I can't believe how quickly this year is flying by. Just wanted to post a few photos of a quilt and reversible pillow I made, and donated to a fund-raising event. I must admit, I was secretly hoping that no one would place a bid so I could bring them b
Made 3 sets of reusable scented Hand Warmers to give with gifts. The designs are from Embroidery Library. I used 100% wool felt for the covers. Filled some with rice and others with navy beans, and scented them with lavender. Heat them in a
Rose Pillow - made this pillow that was given as a birthday gift to compliment new bedding. I was amazed how well the colors matched since I didn't have any of the actual bedding to use as a guide. Photo #4 is the back side. I use the swirly faux fur
Class Rules - Wall Hanging I made this wall hanging for a young lady who is a Grade 1 school teacher, and was given her own classroom this year. She was totally surprised, and really loves it. The 8 "rule" blocks are from a design pack
Train Case - Thought I would make this train case, which is a project from Husqvarna, for my young niece who wants to be an actress. It turned out pretty nice, but I found it quite fiddly with all the layers and very stiff interfacing (never used that be
Wanted to show a couple of ornaments I made using a few of the corks we have collected over the years. Saw something similar for sale at $15 each in a retail shop. They were very easy to make, but a bit messy with the glitter. (I had forgotten that bit

A couple of Hand towels that I was asked to make for a lady who will be giving them as thank you gifts to her friends. Hope they like them. Both of these monogram fonts are from Cute Alphabets, one of the Cute sister sites. Thanks for looking.
Hello Cuties - looking for advice/suggestions today on steam irons. Mine has mysteriously developed a crack in the water reservoir and is now leaking terribly. Which brand/model of iron do you recommend?
First attempt at quilting - this is my first "test" piece, and I turned it into a table top/mat. I've been wanting to try this type of quilting pattern for a long time, but had not had enough scraps or thorough enough instructions to do it. I'
Steamed Loaves - Was finally able to get some All-Bran, to try out Shirley's (saproctor) recipe. However, by the time I got the cereal, all the raisins were gone! So, no fruit this time. Didn't have any regular soup cans either, so I used some larger
My first try to stitch FSL Edging on 100% Linen to make a doily. After admiring lidiad's elegant creations, I wanted to try making my own doily with FSL edging ITH. This is the result, and the design is from Sue Box. (Sorry for the shadow in the photo
