Show Update

We are back at the hotel after a wonderful day at the Flin Flon Quilt Show and thought we would share a few pictures with you.  We also thought we would share some advice with you.  If you're going to quilt in a hotel room, NEVER have the iron plugged in for a long time directly below the smoke detector, you may set it off!  Definitely an entertaining trip!
Here's Barb snacking in the booth.

This gorgeous quilt made by Kathy Schwartz is using the Quick Curves ruler.

Fabric!!

Well the plan over winter was to clean up some UFOs (Unfinished Objects) around my craft room.  We got further into winter, new stock kept arriving and the idea got shelved.  Now we got some MORE new fabric!  That idea is no longer shelved, it's right out the window!  Here's a peek so you can be tempted as much as I am!

New in Scrapbooking!

Here are some of this week's new items!


Prima resist canvas shapes. You can ink, mist, stain and paint theses canvas pieces. The resist designs on each piece give really cool effects :) The page above has the bird and cherry blossom canvas pieces using Wheatfields Glimmer Mist, Pink Petals plus Pinecone Versa Color ink.  After inking and misting the pieces were wiped off with a damp paper towel to bring out the resist effect.





Doodle Bug Designs "Boys Only"




Echo Park "Boys"





These cute brads from the Eyelet Outlet in shapes like gears, kitchen mixers, strawberries, ice cream cones, bottle caps and dress forms. Also Celebrate it flowers,(there are tons to a box) and Kaiser Craft Wood Flourish gears.




My Little Bicycle  "Swoon"



Doodle Bug Designs baker's twine









 Tonic Studio Guillotine cutter. This cutter is definitely worth the higher price tag. It's great for cutting chipboard and several layers of paper at a time.



Hockey and Curling paper
