2nd entry for T-shirt Re-do Contest

Here - I cut up an old t-shirt into 4" squares - sewed them together - and "couched" on some funky yarn - and I ended up with a pretty cool looking scarf. These scarfs are all the rage these days. So - hope one of my entries brings me a first place :)
I think that after the contest is closed, everyone should be able to vote on the website. I'll keep you posted.


P.S. isn't Tessah a great model?

"Grease" T-Shirt Re-Do

I entered a contest where you had to re-vamp a T-shirt in pop culture style. Here is the little bag that I came up with - Hope I win!!!! Grand Prize is $1000 Babylock Sewing Machine. Used left over scraps from Dane's quilt. All the black fabric and the "Grease" logo are from the t-shirt. You can enter up to 3 times, I plan on submitting 2 more entries.

School themed centerpieces

Last May, my Alaska BF, Lisa, threw a party for her Hubby in honor of his college graduation from UAA. She needed a school theme for centerpieces - because his degree is in Elementary Education. I scoured the web for an idea and found this great blog - which I now check out every day.

Here was how Lisa's turned out. (Green & Gold - UAA colors) - I think she did great!!!

Another Fun Diaper Cake

My sis-in-law, Jamey, is planning a baby shower for her friend Misty. So she asked if I'd make her a diaper cake - love it.

Finally Finished CSQ - Bug Quilt for Charity

So - yesterday I finished a Crazy Shortcut Quilt (CSQ) I started back in March - or maybe February. It was actually my first attempt at this method. It was intended for my high school friend, Maura's new baby, Alistair. With my dad's illness and death this spring/summer, my quilting took a nosedive. But a blogger friend, Judi, at Green Fairy Quilts is heading to Romania to donate quilts to an orphanage....that was the fuel I needed to finish. MAURA - I promise Alistair will get a cute quilt soon. XOXXO
Here it is:
