I found this tutorial the other day on Cathie Filian 's blog. Not hard.. you could even set the children down at the table with scissors, ruler, pencil and glue stick.. let them make some to decorate their rooms.
This awesome stack of fabric scraps came from one of my good friends for Christmas. I said "here is my next scrappy quilt!" I don't even think you can see all of the prints in the picture.. the stack was so tall it fell over.
Also in the package was this quilt and fabric book by Barbara Brackman. I was thrilled because I didn't have it.
My kids are all still here, the boys go back to their own homes tomorrow. I have three grown children, our daughter who lives here, then two boys who live in Columbus Ohio and Macon Georgia. And we just don't get to see them as much as I'd like. So when they come to visit, we all have such a good time, and it goes too fast. This year they brought a new board game called "Settlers of Catan", and it is so much fun. But I'm just learning it, and get beat pretty bad every time. Tonight they went to visit some of their friends, but they promised they'd get up early enough tomorrow to play at least one more game with me before they have to leave.
Soon it will be back to normal. Hitty Club is the 10th, and I have something in mind for that.. my next real project. Then I can start on Jackie's Black & White Challenge!
Now I better go clean up my card scraps..
