Happy Crafting

Cory's Class .... and Happy Easter ...

We had lots of fun at Cory's house yesterday ... here's the cards we did!

This is a cute set of 3x3 cards ... with a gift box and envelopes. Used the Under the Big Top stamp set and matching designer paper. 

Have fun stamping (and or sewing!)

Busy busy bee ....

I've been sooooo busy this month ... making samples for a craft fair screening, finishing some special order items, trying to build an inventory for upcoming craft fairs ... whew. Had to take a few extra days off to breathe in between cards and sewing! Here's some pics so you are up to speed!

Special order Snoopy quilt - queen sized and 2 pillow cases!!!

Here's a close up 

Cute coasters for craft fairs ....

And my newest ... pillows for kids ... cute and cuddly... 

and just the right size :)

Hope you're keeping busy!! See you soon - card classes are filling up quickly. Don't wait :)

March's Stamp a Stack Class

We had a great time in class this weekend ... Friday night's regulars helped assess the cards as usual - SUPER time consuming! So I recruited Barb to help me on Saturday prep more parts for the larger Sunday group. It worked ... they only took about an hour extra ... give or take .... but every one loved the cards! That's the main thing.

Here's the stack of delicate doilies that we "big shotted" and prepped ... (actually, Barb did most of these)

Here's the cards:

Cute pocket card ... cased from Ann Clemmer &Stampin Dog

Here's those doilies in action ... 

this is my favorite this month ... embossing on vellum

And YAY finally a boy birthday card ... these are the cutest dinosaurs!

Take out kits are coming ... for those that are waiting ... the extra prep for class set me back a few days ...

Keep Stamping! Or Sewing!

Koolau Quilters!

Hi friends!

We had a VERY productive evening ... here's a couple peeks ....

Jeanie and I are hanging out on my NEW JUMBO ironing board. Specially made by Lilah and a friend. It's so awesome. Wide enough to lay out a fat quarter. It's the BEST. Thanks Lilah!

Barb had left already by the time I decided to take pictures, but she left her container with all her hard work in it ... she was worried she had lost it! But her yellow brick road baby quilt pieces were safe with us. Delivered today to the owner!

Jeanie had already put away her chair covers (pads) but she volunteered to show off potholders in progress tonight was trim, night. now ready for binding ...

Lilah just kept bringing out quilt tops to measure for backing one and then another and then another and another and even more!! She got a lot of backs ready to be pinned!! 

Sandy FINISHED her daughters cute - cute - cute quilt. Jodi's been watching it grow and grow - 

it's well worth the wait. It's it great?

Just a group of friends who love fabric and love to create things! Join us some time!!
