Scrap Happy

Being new to quilting, I have never had scraps before. I must be a quilter, because it was an instinct to save any scrap of this lovely discontinued Freshcut Fabric by Heather Bailey. My favorite fabric line of all time had to be used with nothing to spare. :) So I took my pile of scraps and sat down at the sewing machine. I randomly started sewing pieces together and it transformed into this beautiful mini lap quilt top. I'm in love!

Aqua Knobs and Chaotic Quilting

Look what came today! SO excited! I found these delicious Antique Delphite aqua milk glass knobs on ebay. I am so in love with these! I have no clue what I will use these for, but whatever use, they will fit right in! I cant stop drooling over these 6 beautiful aqua knobs. I love ebay!

 

 

Below is a quilt in progress. It has been in progress for 2 months! ugh! The way I have been feeling, I just cant seem to get this done! Last week, I spent a few hours on it trying to get this off my craft room floor. So tired of stepping over it. So my main goal this next week is to get this quilt top sewn. It is made from Heather Bailey's Freshcut fabric collection using the Lap Quilt Pattern "Freshcut Quilt" from her site. I still have to sew more strips together, then cut and sew together the blocks.

I cant wait until my energy comes back! But until then it is mindless crocheting as seen below that will be my choice of craft.

Embroidery Thread Bobbins

I am IN-Love with these Bobbins! Inspired by Heather Bailey! I had a great time out at my Local craft store picking out all the supplies! I bought .99 cent paint, a dowel rod, satin varnish, wood glue, a paint brush, and wooden finials! I even had to go to Ace to get a cheap saw to cut my dowel rod up! I spend a whole evening on this fun project and cant wait to make more!

This was very easy! I cut my dowel rod up into 4 inch segments. Stuck the wooden finials onto the dowel rod with a little glue, painted them, distressed them, varnished them, and then wound them up! :)

 I even found yummy Heather Bailey Fabric for my picture background! What could be more fun than that! I really had a BLAST! Hope you enjoy the pictures! :)
