Thanks everyone, it is no longer snowing but today it is bitter. This morning when I went to the barn it was 2, now after noon it is up to 5 - whoopee! I have to either make or buy booties for my Bridget lab, her little feet froze this morning, to the point where she even sat down and held up one little frozen paw.
The thread catchers are so darn simple they go together in mere minutes. I made a dozen in one short evening and today at the cookie exchange the girls loved them. The biggest task was finding some cute buttons at a reasonable cost to put on them. If you plan far enough ahead, my dear friend Roberto Fabuloso gave me the idea to look on ebay and etsy, they have a lot of really cute buttons for reasonable. The link to the thread catchers is http://gigisquilts.blogspot.com/2011...ar-thread.html If that doesn't work (I copied it off my printout) google Gingerbread Girl's Quilting Adventures, she has it as my first tutorial: a triangular thread catcher. Have fun, I gave my favorite quilt store one of my templates I cut out of plastic so they can make kits to sell.
