What I sent:
A roll of un-paper towels to Bonnie over at Fishsticks Designs.
I'll admit, y'all, I was a tad intimidated. She's an amazing sewist. Designs her own patterns.
She also has a focus on conservation/minimizing waste.
So, I thought and thought. Then I found a cool tutorial on un-paper towels.
I got to try out some new skills. I'd never sewn with terry cloth before. I hadn't put in snaps before either. That was WAY harder than I thought it would be. (I used one of those hammer it on dealies. Next time, I might try the plier/squeezy tool. I was just worried my hands would be too wimpy.)
Bonnie's pictures are far nicer than mine. Check it out on her blog in action. Here's my subpar photo:
I also sent her a journal because I feel I must share my lust for journals with others.
I got an amazing package from Cindy over at Spin the Bobbin.
I've met her at the Atlanta Modern Quilt Guild. She made me a gorgeous clutch for my wedding!
In all my to do list, I never had a clutch for myself on the list. Now I don't have to!
Also, she knows of my love of all things Tula and sent me some Salt Water. I HAVE to do something with that kraken.
Thanks to all the lovely women who organized the Covert Robin!
Glad you like what I sent. I need to make some un-paper towels. They look great and I'm sure she loved them.
ReplyDeleteThat clutch is clutch. I love the fabric you used for the towels!
