When I stopped in at the
Attic Window Quilt Shop this past Saturday, the Stitch-In was in session. Above
Tammy shows us this nice iron cover that she made. You can use it as a pressing pad as well as wrap your warm iron in it when you are ready to go home. No more burned carpet in the car.
Adrienne (left) made an iron pad/cover too. Above you can see how the case folds around your iron. NOTE: When
Happy Scrappers met recently, Adrienne was looking at a pink batik fabric. Look at the lovely dress that she made out of it. Great job Adrienne!
This was the scrappy technique that was being taught. You use your scraps by sewing them to old adding machine tape, and then use these strips to make a block. I wish I had taken a picture of the block they made, but forgot. Sorry. Above are
Adrienne's strips.
Diana made these strips. Notice that on some of the pieces she sewed scraps together to make the strip wide enough to go across the tape. Great idea Diana.
Nancy shows us the block she is making for Sampler. Love those colors.

What a GREAT idea - no waiting around for your iron to cool!! Really love Adrienne's dress, she looks so cool and comfortable.
I'd love to try that scrappy technique - the tape seems like it would be better than phone book pages. Thanks for shouting out my free pattern hon!
