    There are three quilts in the working stages right now. The poppies, the scrappy stars and the wall hanging. My vacation is the week of Thanksgiving so I will get a lot of work done then. I'm ready!

    peace

    Project of Doom, combines book shelf with your favorite "fandom" (harry potter, star trek, doctor who etc....)

    Oh that is hilarious. My friend likes to browse Pinterest and loves quilts although she never learned how to sew. I think I have to draw the cats by hand since I need them in the right position, and I will need to do a LOT of embellishment to get the strips to look like books. I noticed in the picture that the artist used selvages on some of the books - it is a good idea.

    Here is my WIP so far....

    Stopped by my favorite 2nd hand antique shop and found this beauty. This is pressed glass and the pattern is strawberries, a new one to me, so I had to have it for a few $s. She is 5.5" tall and 9" across. I would love to find more of this pattern.

    It would also make a great quilting pattern on whole cloth, imho.

    Isn't she pretty!

    Make your week a good one.
