I know - apples in Washington - probably overdone sometimes - but I love the fabrics. I am going to make some potholders to start with - not sure what else I will make - any great ideas? Since I don't need new chair seat covers - those are out - - - thinking - thinking - - -
I needed some small christmas prints for my ornaments that I made earlier this year. I want to send one with each christmas card next year. These two fabrics seemed perfect.
And here are three fun fabrics - the corn is for a Crow quilt I am gathering fabrics for
The middle batick fabric could go in christmas ornaments or stars like Belinda lured me into making - and the bottom fabric with multi stars is just so darn cute I couldn't resist it.
And then here is the yarn and plastic canvas I bought last weekend - these are colors that I need for the lighthouse project .
You can get plastic canvas books for any project you could imagine at this ebay site - she has lovely things to choose from - and so many choices!
It was fun to get the package of fabric - Ben was here (our four year old grandson) - and we had just finished binding a quilt when the package of fabric arrived. He looked at the quilt and then at the fabric and said "Grammy, you are quite an expert on quilts". That little boy just melts your heart!!

Looks as though you did well with the fabrics, especially like the Christmas ones. I've done a lot of cross-stitch but never tried doing it on plastic canvas. I really like those lighthouses though and they would fit in with my grandson's nautical themed room. Hmmmm! May have to think abouit trying it!
ReplyDeleteYou are an expert on grandsons, too. What a cute comment he made. I love the corn fabric -- I have some also.
