On Another Note 3

-

Hello and welcome to On Another Note where I share links to beautiful things I found in Blogland! Sometimes it is hard to find them all yourself and these you don't want to miss!

I just love this block by Jess and she wrote a great tutorial on her blog Shadow Star for do. Good Stitches Cheer Circle | Jess K Quilts

 

Shadow Star is a color popping block that would make a lovely quilt! I could see using this block in a tote bag, purse or pillow! Make sure you book mark this one! You can find Jess on Instagram at Jess K (@jesskquilts) • Instagram photos and videos

OMG! I love Violet, when I saw this turtle on Kim's blog My Go-Go Life: Monday Motivation! {free pattern link in post}! If you like soft toys this is a must make! Find Kim on Instagram Kim Niedzwiecki (@gogokim) • Instagram photos and videos

 

This little wallet sure looks handy and a great gift idea made by Ashley Nickels, part of the Dear Handmade Life Team, for Simple DIY Fabric Wallet - Dear Handmade Life. The tutorial is easy to follow! So check it out for yourself you can make up a few for your favorite people. They look like they would make great business card holders too! You can find Ashley on Instagram at Ashley Nickels (@alphabetashley) • Instagram photos and videos her feed is full on inspiration!

 

Have a great Monday we are dealing with Pink Eye! Parent alert this is not serious if treated! You or your child can catch it anywhere, not just from school. If your child gets red swollen eyes call your pediatrician!

 

My poor little man. Drops 4 times a day and no school until Thursday! It came on over night Friday with a little crust on the right eye. Got drops called in by pediatrician on Saturday. On Monday, we have it in both eyes, ugh! Think we will be playing some games! Create and be unique! Lisa

Thanks you Madame Samm Sew We Quilt! and Erin Sew At Home Mummy for being the best cheerleaders in the world. Madame Samm I love how you keep thinking up great hops! You keep us challenged, that is for sure! I love "Stitching On Prints" it is so fun! I tried out DMC Cotton Perle, Aurifil, and a pack of cheap stuff with great colors. The Cotton Perle is inexpensive and works pretty well. The cheap stuff is awful it is hard to pull through the fabric and I will not buy again. The Aurifil is just right. I hope to get more and start "Stitching On Print" a series. Where we work together once a week and learn stitches. I love the effect in the mug rug. April Showers Blog Hop Day 1! These are the Blogger for April 8, 2013. The April Showers Blog Hop is from April 8 - 18, 2013. Please stop by and give a comment for all their hard work. You can get the full schedule at Erin's blog Sew At Home Mummy Erin@Sew at Home Mummy Patty@A Stitch In Time Jenny@Squawk

Aurifil Thread Giveaway - Black and White

Let's talk thread! As Quilters and Sewers - thread binds everything we create together. Some will say the most important item is fabric, spend the extra on fabric, I say buy the best thread! Cheap cotton threads breaks and rots after a few years. Have a problem with your thread breaking try a spool of Aurifil 50 wt. thread! It may just cure it! Just a side note - if you have old thread that was given to you, use it as a decoration don't use it in your machine. Never buy old thread for sewing, it will just cause you a lot of frustration. When I needed a bag to hold my smaller rulers, I chose Aurifil 50 wt thread to zig zag the bag because it is strong and durable! I use white to sew almost everything light colored and that includes topstitching. I went back months searching my most used color and go figure it is Aurifil 50 wt. thread #2021, Natural White! It only goes to say that my other most used color of Aurifil 50 wt. thread is #2692, Black! Sometimes topstitching
