Calculating Quilter: February 2013
http://www.calculatingquilter.com/2013_02_01_archive.html
Thursday, February 14, 2013. Two years ago I started this wall hanging. After quilting it with pink thread.I just didn't like it. So I hid it away in a box. Took it out a few weeks ago, and made myself finish it. I hate unfinished projects! The colors reminded me of ice cream so I named it Neapolitan. I like to name my quilts! I think the blocks look like Dutch Windmills. I love striped binding! And now I'm so happy it's "finished" and just in time for Valentine's day! And there you have it,.

Monday, October 29, 2012. Polka Dot Pin Cushion Caddy. Between work being super busy and. All the sports I've been watching lately. My sewing and quilting time continues to be limited. But since I'm still finding time to embroider. I decided to finally make this. The pincushion is weighted so it can be balanced. On the arm of a chair or the edge of a table. There are several pockets for holding embroidery tools. And finally a small bag to catch pesky little threads and. I'll be cozy and coordinated.
