I actually went to the Creative Stitches show with a list. I did not deviate much from it. I have to admit that this linen scrap assortment was not on my list but who could resist these funky Japanese linen/cotton scraps? Perfect for pouches! I also picked up a new stitch ripper. I like them sharp so I end up getting a new one about once a year. What a difference!!!! I was ripping stitches like a crazy person today. Yep. I have to admit it. I was doing some paper piecing and I go through stages of messing up and stitch ripping until I get in the groove.
I also wanted some new pins. These Clover flower headed ones are pretty close to perfection but I actually like the finer ones even better. And the trim on the wooden spool? It asked to come home with me. Who was I to say no?
Off to take some quilt pictures while the sun shines! Happy Sunday!
I wouldn't have been able to resist that busy mom linen either!
ReplyDeleteI love the linen. I know everything *I* make is 'dalicious'!
ReplyDeleteLOOOOVVVVE the Japanese linen fabrics! I have a bunch that I have collected and cannot bear to cut. As for you CLOVER flower pins: were they super expensive? I would love to own these but keep pricing them out and REFUSE the asking price at certain stores. I guess I'll be buying them on my next trip south of the border! You had a very successful shopping trip! Yay!
