Happy Hump Day! I finished the Boy Quilt Top. I used
Sujata's new book. The blocks were really fun to make. Hooray, it's all from stash fabric!
My stencils have arrived and I'm open for business at
my new Etsy store. My mailing supplies came and I'm ready to ship. Thank you, Linda, for being my very first customer!
**Update 1/22/15 the Large Baptist Fan stencils are sold out. I have re-ordered more and will let you know when they arrive. I still have the Double Fans. Sorry!**
Since my main goal was to have them produced for my own use, I've reduced the cost as much as I can, considering the shipping, so that they are affordable. As I said to Rich. I don't have to make money, just not lose money.
Nancy, asked me about the quilt that was under my potholder project on the last post. So I'm re-sharing it here today.
It was a challenge quilt that I made in 2008. We were each given a 1/2 yard of the Asian print and had to use it. I added all solid fabrics. I would call this a modern quilt, wouldn't you? Imagine, a modern quilt - before the modern quilt movement. (meow)
It may appear very random, but all of my scrap quilts contain some order. Can you find the order? Order always makes scrap quilts more pleasing. If you figure it out (or make a guess), I'll put your name in to win this custom made potholder.
This backing is one piece but really looks like patchwork. I wish I had more of this one!
I'm still working on my antler project. It is proving to be a difficult one and I've had some set backs. I hope to show it to you soon.
One other bit of exciting news; I own the domain name FunWithBarb.com. Now that domain is automatically redirected here to the blog where all Fun can be found. (sounds like a small thing, but it took me several days ;0 - Thanks again,
Anna, for your techy help.)
Good luck in the potholder drawing! I'll ship anywhere.
Mr. Kittie, Starbuck: fabric inspector.
