Playtime

This is what I've been playing with
while I should have been doing
???????????
hey, what's more important than enjoying time at the sewing machine ! ! !



This datebook cover used two of those home dec samples from one of our quilt guild members


This smaller datebook used only one sample


I added some pinkish fabric to this sample to make up the size I wanted for this Journal cover

Here's the whole pic of this journal in progress
not much left before it's complete

  5. Do I get to chose which one I want? Hmmmmm - Big T tells me I have to take the presents under the tree and add ribbon and bows. I was doing assembly line wrapping, and he put them under the tree before I was ready and now I have to regroup. There goes my morning of doing nothing - besides laundry (getting to be that desparate time when you have to do laundry).

  6. I think someone should adopt me and teach me some of this important stuff, especially since I have a NEW sewing machine!!! Any suggestions?
