WIP

Working on some Make and Take projects for the Quilt Show and Expo that is coming to Kansas City in October. This is our first consumer show, and we are so excited! Just trying to come up with a fun quick project...harder than it sounds :) Also tossing around a kit for kids to learn-what do you think? How did you learn? Any good ideas out there?

I taught my middle niece last night with just a simple hand drawn design. We did her initial and some flowers on a satin ribbon. She LOVED it! It was so much fun and gratifying to teach her. I just love those girls-lucky me :)
Okay, off to more brainstorming in the Air Conditioning (thank goodness--its over 100 here today)!
Cheers,
Brooke

A work in progress....

Well, another work in progress for the Trade Show coming up. This one is a pillowcase. I used the new Oriental Designs Pattern (you can find it here). I just love this pattern--and just in time for the Chinese New Year! I will be sure to post an after picture-this one will look so good all pressed up on a bed. I can't wait! Not much more left to do.

Well, I hope you had a wonderful time ringing in the New Year! I am looking forward to what 2011 will bring-many projects I'm sure and many new patterns (wink wink) :)

Happy Monday All-hope your week is filled with lots of stitching!
