Give away

I came across a great give-away and immediately signed up! It's at http://www.abbeylanequilts.blogspot.com/ and the occasion is "national quilter's day" We declared that day international: C and I spent a whole evening chatting and quilting.

 Isn't this a cute threadcatcher/pincushion? Abbeylane is also giving away one of their great patterns.

I never ever won a give-away so I'll probably have to order at least the pincushion..:) But..you'never know; maybe I'm lucky!



Last sunday afternoon I spent sewing. I had to try the tutorial you can find at Janet's blog, designed for zipper fobics like me..

I'm not alltogether satisfied so I'll have to make another one :) No big deal since I went to the weekly market and came home with some flowerfabrics at bargainprice. (don't you love bargain-price-fabrics in ONE sentence??? I know I do!!) I found even cheaper polkadots so I'll definately visit the booth again. For now I have a new ZIPPERED makeup pouch!
