    LOL. I couldn't stand all the Bow Tucks! SO many were SO cute, I just had to make one!! So, I did the cutting and much prep last night, and finished it today. Unfortunately, I have a neuromuscular disorder and I don't think I'm going to be able to CARRY it! It's so heavy!! But, I'll use it as long as I can! :o)

    The other is my pin cushion, thread catcher. I actually made it a while ago but thought I'd add the picture since I'm here. :o)

    Right now, I've just got cardboard in it. Going to go to Lowes and get some tiles to use.

    haha...... this was my first project, as I am a TOTAL beginner not just at quilting, but also sewing. I put the straps on backwards. lol.

    Those are so cute. I need one of those pin cushion/thread catchers. What is weighing it down? It looks like a "must have" for me. Lol.
