Mom begged to use the plan she is working on as her frame for today --"it qualifies as a design, doesn't it?!" Ok...I think so. We made a foray to the fabric store on Garland "Sew Easy Two" a couple weeks ago and so she is gearing up to make a quilt to use as her bedspread to set the decor in her room. I am going to save the surprise of colors for when she gets some blocks made. (her 365 contributions may be steps of her quilt progress in the weeks ahead)
I am gearing up to go to Letters of Joy Calligraphy conference in Edmonds WA tomorrow. I was dealing with all my money (many customers pay me for sewing in cash) and realized it would be nice to have a decent coin purse.
I really like my regular wallet, but it's coin compartment is a royal pain. So, I used the "design" aspect of our frame for the day to create a wee coin purse. Think I should make some to sell. It is really great because it will squeeze open, coins on the flap for seeing/picking and closes snug so they don't scatter when the purse is tipped or turned. I will try to give an evaluation after I use it this weekend at all the art supply booths. (Shivers of excitement!!!!) More creativity will be on tap when I get back from the conference. "Just you wait!!"
