On the hunt for wooden spools.  My friends Tricia gifted me some, then Marie, and now sister Charlene is sending me some from Texas!  Yippee!  Here’s what I’ve been up to and looking for more creative ideas to do with them.  Right now you can find the quilt wrapped spools at American Country Mercantile.   The hunt continues….

I've been wrapping and sewing strips of vintage quilts around all sizes of spools. Fingers got a little sore. =)

Like my model? Take 1. lol

Lincoln - take 2. I filled up the Longaberger chip and dip bowl for the display.

Take 3 - he told me the bowl was toooo HEAVY so we moved on to putting them into the Medium Flare Basket.

Take 4 - say cheese!

Pick a Letter

I’m still on the hunt for an awesome G or B (for BASKET of course!)  or maybe both!  =) 

The "R" is great for my maiden name, but a "G" would be better. And I decide that if this sign said Wake Up America with a Diet Coke pictured, I would have for sure bought it.

Seems the letter R was the letter for the day!

Did you say Eeeeee!

at the Flea Market.  I met Martha Kohley who makes these darling cakes out of paper.  She is teaching a class on how to do it.  You can contact her at 503.581.7225

Wish the picture was better but these really are darling and no calories!
