new stuff

my daughter and her new granson!    born late friday evening, he and mom are home now, doing just fine!

i just remembered, i did not get pix of the baby quilt and things i made for him.  i was in a big hurry to finish them ... last sunday my daughter came down and brought me back to anchorage with her.  she brought me back down tuesday night after i had a chance to shope 'til we dropped and visit around.


  some of my loot; we went to all five quilt shops , michaels and joann's! 








 i found this new gadget, a craft cutter that, i hope, will do a good job cutting little bitty applique pieces.  made by slice, it has a ceramic blade [very small]   it's supposed to  stay sharp forever, and will never rust




it seems that i've done a lot of other shopping, too.   an olfa circle cutter that works slick as a whistle, and two good fabric sales .






will see if these patterns are easy peasy bargellos!  one pattern uses a jelly roll, the other a layer cake.
