Trying out the Pearl...

Pearl Goodness!

Score!

A wonderful package arrived today, 2 lots of Pearl/Perle cotton I won on eBay.

I have been wanting to try this out for a while and at under $10.00 for all of this how can I resist?

It is all size 8 so now I just have to figure out what needle will work best for hand quilting with this.

Any suggestions?

Getting Ready for Bunco

The ladies in my neighborhood play Bunco, good times, good times... 

This month is my turn to host so we have been cleaning.  

If you know me well, you know this is not my forte.  

I prefer to sew or watch Days of Our Lives or whatever other more important task needs doing ;)  

So anyway, I had to recover the kitchen chairs.  

 

Three yr. old and fabric covered kitchen chairs do not mix.

  

So I opted for this mix, Joel Dewberry covered in your Grandma's sexy vinyl.  

Much easier for cleanup!

Who's feet are that?

Well, clearance + disturbing = a must have.

Introducing, my new gnome pillow for the couch.

 

Is he giving us the thumbs up?

Or hitchhiking with a baby on his back...

Hmmmmm.....

Just some pics...

Still have a broken flash, indoor pictures are going to be a little iffy for a while...
