Keeping busy


I received the ear plugs for the smart phones from Monica (you can see my post here) so I added some charms to many of them.  These are going to be for gifts and some have already been sent out in the mail!

If you're trying to envision how these work or fit in your smart phone you can see a picture on my post here.    I love my charms on my phone and I hope the recipients of these feel the same!! 

After adding the charms, I thought I'd make some snap bags!  My daughter wants some specific sizes but I have to  wait until she gives me the measurement(s).   I wanted to give my Q buddy, Susan, a snap bag and thought I'd make some to have on hand!
The colored snap bag on the left was for Susan and I gave it to her today!  Susan and I took off to Trenton this a.m. to one of our favorite quilt shops!  I only picked up a yard of fabric, which is a novelty print for dogs!  I'll take a pic and post later this week.  Susan and I walked to the stain glass shop where she purchased a stained glass book with a pattern that is perfect for her to use in making her next winning quilt!!!   Then back to the quilt shop  for lunch at the cutest cafe!  It was a beautiful day for the drive and time spent with my buddy!! 

So now, Kalee and I are vegging on the chair before we head out for a walk!  It's hard fabric shopping and eating lunch out!  Have to rest first!

  1. Hey...you gave me an idea......to make small bags....and use that as an excuse to practice machine quilting....that is if and when I get my machine fixed. Snow has kept us home for two days.....hopefully I can get to TN to drop off my machine before the end of the week.

  2. Those little phone plugs are so cute. Have not tried the snap bags as yet. I'll put it on the to-do list.

  3. Those charm plugs are amazing and I love mine...thank you. Your little snap bags are simply fabulous! I made a few but didn't like my results. Your quilting really makes them special. Shopping and lunch out really can be exhausting...
