wipes of fun

t loves to pull things out and put them back in.  well maybe sometimes, just pull things out.  if you don't know where she is, look for the trail of items laying where they aren't supposed to be.  

a while ago, i saw where scraps of fabric were cut to fit in an old wipe box for babies to play their in and out game with.  just so happens that i had an extra wipe box laying around.  i cut my scraps to a double layer of 7x9".  well not the fleece one, that doesn't fray and both sides are the same.  did a zig-zag around the sides (this was a quick project, you could cut the scraps bigger, sew them inside out & turn to make them look nicer)

t loves them.  not sure if she has a favorite scrap, but they have also been put in other items....a water pitcher she got out of the cabinet. and now she has leaned to open the whole box, so its also fun to put the fabric in and then dump it all out.    

scraps & next show

so i am kind of a horder when it comes to cool fabric that i have used in the past. i dont like to part with it. so...i keep it. i really love it when i get to use those scraps for something cool. these are scraps that from all the flannel blankets that i make. a friend is having a benefit for her dad & asked me to donate. gave me a good reason to use up scraps & it was fun. cant wait to use up more for aonther baby quilt like this.

next show-saturday april 6 millard west (176th & q) from 9-4. i have been sewing like crazy so i have a great selection. my mother in law will also be there with her sewing-serindipity clothes (http://www.etsy.com/shop/SerendipityClothes). we'll be in wild cat 1 (1st gym) but please remember there are 2 gyms-there are lots of great crafters there. hope to see everyone there.
