Karen sent me this lovely package! Look how pretty everything is wrapped. Karen sent me so many wonderful things. There are lots of different fabric-scraps, a bookmark-kit, a sheet to print my own pictures on fabric (YAY! Thank you!!), and a huge piece of the blue fabric with sun and shooting stars
Thank you so much Karen! I love it all!
I finished my paper this morning, Charles is turning it into a pdf for me, so I can send it to my professor tonight :-)
So....what to do? I probably should go buy the books I need for my next class. It starts monday, and I need to read 180 pages before then!
But I really miss my sewing machine, so I made some more flying geese, and decided I want to make a zig-zag quilt. It would probably be a lot easier making a zig-zag quilt from half-square triangles. LOL! That'll be next time!
I like these dots. I was afraid it was way too pale with all the white and the soft colors, but I quite like it. I think I have just been working on Charles' quilt for too long. I need to finish that!
Wonderful gift from Karen! Good luck on your paper! I am sure you will do fine. The zig zag quilt is fabulous.
ReplyDeleteLove Karen's packaging too! Lucky you! I love your dotty zigzag and Yes, I would think that HST's would be easier than flying geese but it looks great~!
ReplyDeleteit's fun to watch you turn little pieces into beautiful projects. i have had mixed results with fabric paper. i think it is the combination of paper, ink & copier. i was tricked by a comment into thinking your dots were going to be trees. the zig-zag works with the dots. when you stop by you'll see that i left you a little something.
ReplyDeleteHi Tine-
ReplyDeleteI was just wondering with all the classes you're taking what your ultimate goal is? Just curious...:)
What a nice package from your friend-I always love getting mail!
What a cute quilt! I love the dots against the white.

ReplyDeleteOhh. I like that zig zag quilt. How cute.
ReplyDeleteCongrats on getting your paper finished. Nicely done! And good luck with the reading - I hope it is a really interesting book, otherwise 180 pages will seem like too much. I like your zig-zag quilt - such pretty colors.
