looking forward

This is up on the "Wall"...

I have this wonderful hoard assortment of Denyse Schmidt fabrics and I've been playing around with what to do with them.

I think there are at least 2 quilts here and Free Spirit is going to re-releases "fleamarket fancy" in the next few months!!

also, much to my husbands chagrin I made this wondeful rag rug out of his old t-shirts

you cut 1-1/2 inch by 4 inch strips out of 4 or 5 t-shirt and sew them onto lines marked on your base fabric 3/4-inches apart. I think photos may be better then words but this was a fast and easy project. There may be a tutorial in the making...

I'm not one for resolutions as I think each and every day begins anew and is a gift. I love how my daughter declares that she wants art in her life everyday while applying to college saying she's interested in economics, history and politics. I am lucky.

For my friends and family I am ALWAYS grateful.

Happy New Year!! Denise Schmidt fabrics are so fun. What happened with Sarah's quilt, did you finish it?

And grateful for husband's tshirts. Poor husband. My heels would get caught in the stuff :) Do you have to take it to the back of the lot and beat it with the rug beater?
Always glad to see what you are up to in fabric. x o h.
