Wanda & Vampy,
I am so very happy you finally got the bib. Honestly I was beginning to think I needed to remake it and send again, it took 2 weeks to get from CO to OH got figure. I truly happy that you like the bib. May you (and lil Miss) have fun using it. HUGS |
I don't know if this qualifies for a RAK but I just want say a huge THANK YOU to one of our board members. She will know it is her by reading this!A couple of weeks ago I had put out a thread stating I had won a gift certificate in the fab shop hop and couldn't be sure if I wanted to get a paper piecing book that made 3 inch miniatures. I said I had just starting pp and wasn't sure if I was ready to tackle 3 inches. This dear lady sent me a pm and said she had a Carol Doak book that made 12 1/2 inch squares - 40 fabulous bright blocks - and I could have it if I sent her the postage. It arrived the other day and I am thrilled and can hardly wait to start some of them! I was really touched that somene read it and offered something I could use to increase my pp abilities! Thanks again - you know who you are!

How wonderful it is to get a smile in the mail box. What size circles are you using for your yo-yo's?
Well I'm using the Clover orange tool, which needs a minimum 4" diameter piece of fabric. I cut 4" squares and just trim the corners off. My project is to make enough Yo Yo's to complete a Queen sized spread 114x135, so I will need 5100 give or take. I'm using only pastel colored fabric, as I saw a picture of a Yo Yo cover and it was so pretty I always had in the back of my mind to make one. Starting Jan 1st I challenged myself to make at least 1000 per month and did accomplish that making 1200. I'm a little behind so far this month, as company has and will be here for a few more days. I make this in the evening while watching TV .... I think I watch to much TV in the evening :0) But if I don't keep my hands busy I fall asleep :0) What I found is that my stash doesn't have much in the way of pastels so Diana sending me some pastel fabric was most welcomed. Another quilter I was talking to suggested using the wrong side of the fabric for even another option? I'm still not sure and will ask for help here on the board how I will sew them all together. I want to butt them next to one another and not overlap at all. I was thinking about sewing them on my machine or perhaps I will have to do it by hand. Hopefully I will be true to my challenge and complete this before Fall. I store the completed Yo's in 1 gallon zip loc type bags ~ 200 per bag...and they look so very pretty in the bags I'm anxious to see them put together. |
sorry onalee i cannot help you with fabric scraps because i dont really work with pastel fabrics. but when i am out i wll check remnant bins to see if i find any treasures i can gift to you. good luck with your project.
