DH wondered if moonrise bought them that way.

Moonrise said on a few pages back that she loves shrink-wrap. We have all been impressed! :-D

She is absolutely adorable, not only as a ballerina but as an angel also.

Yes, Ruby Ann is checking her plie. She just turned 3 and just started taking ballet lessons about 3 weeks ago. Ruby is very serious about ballet!

She is in heaven... :-D


LOL, no, Ruby is potty trained. However, I can see where one might think that. She also makes a cute 'angel'. I have another photo I will put in of her in her angel costume. She is Grandma's little pride and joy!

Finally finished my Christmas projects and took the time this evening to open my squishy. I was going to save it until Christmas, but couldn't wait. What a treat! Thank you:

and Cindy G. (no board name)

What a wonderful collection to add to my on-going stamp quilt. I looked through each baggie and, can you believe, there are no duplicates in 500 swatches! That says a lot about the eclectic taste of quilters and the great variety of fabrics from which we get to choose. Looking forward to the March swap! Thanks everyone, and double thanks to Missi for your hard work.

What a cute l'il ballerina! :mrgreen:

Re: my squares ... Yep, I cut them all with my rotary cutter, and then packaged them in shrink wrap. The shrink wrap is so nifty! First you wrap the item up in the plastic like you would wrap a gift, taping the edges and ends. Then you heat the plastic up with a hair dryer, and ziiiiip! It shrinks right up and forms itself to fit whatever's inside. So cool! (Okay, so I'm easily amused! LOL!) :lol:

Hey, you impressed all of us!!!

Where do you get shrink wrap? I might have to give it a try.

Being a proud Grandma to Miss Ruby, I will say, Thank you. Wish you could see her in front of anything that shows her reflection... practicing her ballet poses.

I got the shrink wrap off eBay a few years ago. Seems like it was around $13 plus shipping for a huge roll. I've barely made a dent in it. :)

Hi, all. I got a baggie of squares from a Cindy G. in Ohio, but she neglected to write down her Board name. Cindy, please let me know who you are so I can properly thank you and put you on a list I'm creating. Thanks!
