I will be watching to see what others come up with - I can't think of anything off hand

After years and years of procrastinating, I finally did some paper piecing. Carol Doak Stars, here I come. YES! Watched the tutorial on this site.

Magic pillowcases

For my guild it's the magic pillowcases! They are addictive and fun. Who doesn't like a pretty and awesome personal pillowcase!

What is magic about the pillowcases? Is there a pattern?

As soon as he has time my husband will re-measure the casserole carrier for a 9x9 or 8x8 dish, as everyone already seems to have the 9x13" one. Me and geometry agreed along ago not to get in each other's way!

Only thing that come to my mind is the twister quilts they seem to be all over. I fell in love with the shamrock and cactus. I'm going to make a long overdue NM quilt...

#1 piecemaker you'll do great with the story book. I made a couple when I ran a daycare at home and they are so easy and fast!! I still have mine, didn't realize it til the other day when I was looking at our library downstairs.

How do you make the story book? Have or are going to have the third new great-grandchild.

Would love to see a pattern for this.

My most recent project has been to make Pineapple Placemats & am currently teaching a neighbor how to make them. Now I'm into doing microwave bowls since I've really perfected the ones that work well for me.

Where I live in the Pacific Northwest, Little Twisters seems to be the new interest. I just finished using the 5" tool and made a red and white heart wall hanging. I still need to quilt it. If you like to buy charm packs when you visit a new quilt store, I like the idea of using the Twister tool. We also have started a hand embroidery club to share our love of hand embroidery (it was an off shoot of our Thimbleberries club). The book for Thimbleberries club this year has a monthly hand embroidered block. Some of us love putting embroidery work in our quilts (whether it is machine or hand we like it!)
