Running Late...

2.20.2010

I had to work later than planned today so I'm a bit late in posting this...but here's my project for Friday Night Sew In!




Skrits for Haiti: check out I Have To Say for details!

I also cut a bunch of strips for the Stamp Quilt Sew Along, but I can't find my camera to post those pics!.
I found my camera!! Woo hoo!=D
Here are the strips I cut (I lost count how many exactly, but I was stripping for over two hours!).








Randoms...

Here's what I came up with when I reorganized my studio.


The pegboard is SOOPER cool. I spray painted it yellow, then waited a bit for it to dry (but not too much, you want it a little tacky), then I laid some old lace yardage I had on top and spray painted with green. Remember, the lace will be covered in spray paint and therefore never again the same. (So, uh, don't use grandma's.)
Those miniature galvanized steel buckets are my new favorite thing. They are $1 (!) each at Michaels and they are so handy, super cute, and I'm totally obsessed.
The metal hooks for the pegboard came in a kit for like $8. Right now I'm only using about half of them.


sorry for the dark shot.

And here's what came in the mail the other day:


Kona jelly rooolllll! I got it from the quilter's daily deal; I think I paid $9.95 or something ridiculous. (seriously, they change it everyday and there's always a RAD deal!!) Maybe I'll make a gradient quilt...or I dunno. I really like what Cherry House Quilts does with solids. Anywho, I thought I'd take a picture before it gets torn apart! It's so pretty!


Finally, here's the fabric I chose for my Skirts for Haiti project.


The polka dot print is a repurposed sheet I got from Whimsie Dots, and the green is quilting weight cotton. I'm saving the project for tomorrow night for Friday Night Sew In.

Well...I suppose that's it for now. I'll leave you with a picture from my new blog banner photo shoot.


DORK!!
