A little goes a long way

I have a fabulous customer who makes unique handbags and more, she is as crazy about wax print as I am and she recently sent me a picture of a her green boucle, while she had it wrapped around her shoulders she had a eureka moment, what could possibly make this snugly wrap better?

AFRICAN WAX PRINT OF COURSE!



I love how wax print is just as interesting on a small scale and I have a Grey wool blanket that needs some life injected into it so I think I may be stealing this idea.

lovely lovely blankies

I have a thing about blankets..... I think its because they are so comforting, in my house there is always one in easy reach, There has to be, I'm a skinny malinky so i need the extra layers to keep me warm! I have done crochet blankets in the past but its tooooo sloooooow I need quick crafts, and thats why I love sewing. I recently tried quilting, I LOVE it, You can make it as simple or as complicated as you like and when your done you have something very useful that could end up being a family heirloom!
