Twisting Pinwheels

Fun pattern we picked up last week.


Possible Quilting Design

My idea is to emphasize the part of the design that looks like giant interlocking rick rack and do it by using curvy lines that can be stitched continuously.  Posted from my phone!!


possible quilting patterns


this has two "loops" in the rectangle piece


this has ONE loop in the rectangle pice which i think i might like more its simplicity vs the above one

A possible gift for TJ and Hope Caters


I was waiting for somehting to download and tried this  how cute is this  ..the tray cost me $5 in a goodwill sotre and the paint is the magnetic and the chaulkboard...it would look so cute in their front window!! what do you think......or i may just keep it and hang it somehwere as a message board....who knows!

fabric pens samples





here are some pix of a few words using the fabric pens....they bleed but i can go over it and clean up the edges....the fabric "moves" alot while you are writing so i will have to work in small areas...i am thnking maybe smaller pieces of fabric to start with but am not sure that would solve the creeping problem....i wonder if actual fabric paint and a wide brush would be better...am going to look out n the paint box for a jar of fabric paint and try that before i make up my mind...thoughts?
