Repurposed items on parade!
ReplyDeleteI'd like to see some clever ways to use all the scraps of quilting fabrics!
ReplyDeleteI would love to see unique items that we don't normally see in all the magazines. The woven pocket that you had in the last issue was one of these items. I used it for the fiber arts section of my art class. One of my students used brads to attach his pocket to the cover of his art journal. It was a big hit!
ReplyDeleteI would suggest increasing the use of paper/mixed media in stitching and craft and decor projects! Thanks for sharing...
ReplyDeleteLooks like a fabulously cheerful and summery issue. What fun.

ReplyDeleteThe colors in this issue just draw me in! I love them. I'd like to see more ideas for dressing up plain t shirts to go with simple girls' skirts. My girls seem a little big for pillowcase dresses now and I'm looking for ways to tie their plain shirts in with the skirts I make from cute quilt prints. Either applique ideas, flowers, buttons, etc.

ReplyDeleteI'm a teacher and school is out in 3 weeks! I am so looking forward to sewing time! My baby girls are (almost) grown now, so I want to sew simple little colorful dresses for the next door baby girls.
