Vintage Collage & Quilts

New Book

Who says moving is easy.  My new sewing room is ALMOST finished.  I took lots of photos & put together a little book.   There is a little preview of the first 15 pages.  Just click on the book photo.   There is also, on the left sidebar a mini widget . 

 

 

Book Preview - "Memories Sew Sweet"

My book has finally arrived from the publisher!  They send the designer 12 copies.  I will be ordering more to sell.  I do have 6 for sale right now.  They are $14.00 each plus Calif tax if applicable & $5.00 shipping.  US only.  Email me for purchasing options.  You've already seen the cover so here are a few inside shots.  I don't think they have gone out to quilt shops just yet but are also available straight from the publisher, Leisure Arts.   Update 9/19 - 3 books left but I will order more.  p.s. now Amazon.com carrying both of my books as well!  See upper left sidebar. 

My New Book "Memories Sew Sweet"

I've been waiting patiently (well, maybe not so patiently) for my new book.  It is now on Leisure Arts website but I plan to have some soon to sell myself.  Maybe some of you will actually be seeing  it before I do!

 

The other day I was looking at some wine labels & this one caught my eye - what a crack up!

 

I was in Nevada recently with Shirley looking at some homes for sale.  Here the Beave is peeking in the window. This is a cute patio home. 

I finally finished my Eastlake dresser in the kitchen.  You must know by now that blue is a favorite color of mine. 

Shirley, Eileen & I went to garage sales while in Nevada.  I found this cutest little sewing machine for $5 with tons of prefilled bobbins, threads, scissors, tape measure, etc. 

 

Victoria Magazine

I can hardly wait for the "new" Victoria Magazine to come out in November.  I was looking at their website & found an unexpected treat of photos.  Go here & click on the Advertising tab.
