    Tip Toes Is a song! But I don't know the words. I remember a long haired guy with a ukulele for some reason...hm....


    And Flowers in the Attic was a good book but horrid movie Just my .02, which we all know is only worth half of that!

    I am tempted to buy this and make some floral folded stars, which can be found here on Nancy's Notions. Although I would be tempted to try it without the pattern first. Thoughts?

    I thought it would be cute to make this out of florals, and then embroider my name on the fabric button in the middle. Our guild is getting bigger and they are requesting us to make name tags. It says you can make them out of 2.5", 5", or 10" squares....

    here's the link....

    Tip Toe Through the Tulips Is that even a song, or words to one??

    A book I thought of is, A Secret Garden

    For a movie - Flowers in the Attic comes to mind, but I've never seen it.

    Hello Quilters
    I've chosen my fabrics but wanted to make sure of the cut. Do we cut a actual 5" square or do we add the quarter inch allowance?

    No hard fuzzy math here, psonoff. Just cut a simple 5" square, and....viola! You're all set! Easy peasy, lemon squeezy (that's my nod to the hot temps here today) LOL

    It’s an actual 5 inch square, just like those in a charm pack.

    Yay! Can’t wait to see all the beautiful florals. I’m planning to make a prairie points runner (Donna Jordan) with them.
