More Projects!

Our guild, Tewksbury Piecemakers, held it's first meeting of the new year last night.  Anyone who took part in Show and Tell had their name entered into a drawing and I won! It was so fun! I "showed" my Arcadia Avenue quilt. I won a package of 2.5 inch strips and a pattern that I can make with them. I felt the new year started with bang! For me, anyways!!

I found out that Handi Quilter has a pattern to make a dust cover for my long arm. I usually throw a sheet over it! I went to Joann's and found the perfect fabric! Isn't it adorable?? I'm going to use backing from my stash. I figure you'll only really see the top fabric. I'll quilt it first and then cut my pieces. Should be a fun project! (Just another one to add to my ever growing list!)
