If I could take a class with Nancy Crow I would like to do that.  I have heard from people who have taken classes with Nancy Crow that she is a very challenging teacher.  I think at this point a good kick-in-the-pants to Up My Game would be a great experience!  I did visit her web site at some point in the past year or so but her classes were all booked way in advance, cost A LOT and it's far to go ( she's in Ohio and I'm in California).  Kind of a long way to travel for a good kick in the pants!  LOL   But maybe I should really look into it...

Another short post.  More random photos to entertain ...

My Daughter in-law is a Nurse Anesthetist and she says when your all dressed up for surgery the only way to tell one  person from another in the surgery room is your cap.  She likes to where seasonal fabric caps to jazz things up so I made her this xmas fabric cap for Dec.

I make these caps reversible.  Since they need a lining I figure why not make it decorative!
This Santa fabric is a real hoot!  Deep Sea Diving Santa and his reindeer!  
Who'd thought?
I really like making Holiday gifts!
I think it's a great way to say "I love You!''
Happy Holiday sewing!
take care, cw

Blog Hop and Going Primitive...

Give-away! Yeah! I am participating in the Quilt Gallery-Blog Hop Party w/ Give-Away .  (link to the right)    But what to give-away?   I’ve been collecting fabric seriously for more than 20 years.   So here’s my give away.   TEN  -  Fat Quarter’s (that’s a $25-$30.00 value) selected from my stash tailored to the request of the winner!    I’ve pretty much got it all; batiks, repro’s from the 1930’s and 1800’s, all colors, kids fabrics, bugs, food, flowers, oriental, flannels, plaids, etc...   The winner can request a smorgasborg or all of one kind.   Fun for you to make a wish list, fun for me to tailor a collection just for you. What do you need to do?   Leave me a comment at the end of this blog ( please, just one comment per visitor) and a way I can contact you if you are the lucky winner.   I will even cover over seas shipping!   I will draw a name at the end of the blog- hop at midnight, ...

Winter Blog Hop and Crumbs

Here on the Central Coast of California we really can't complain about Winter toooo much 'cause nature is pretty kind to us.  We do get the occasional high winds, power outages, and if it rains for several days in a row with high tides; low parts of the town have been known to flood (that really can be a problem).  But we've none of that bitter cold stuff or shoveling snow 'til you are so tired you could just spit.  But I'm happy to be in the blog hop just to say hello and exchange info. and ideas so here's my give away... I've been playing around with jelly rolls lately.  Because I'm toooo cheap to pay someone else to cut my strips for me I've been making up my own.  So here's a bunch of strips I put together; 10 - 5" strips (one strip is hiding in the picture).  That's equal to 1/2 of a jellyroll.   I know-   jelly rolls are 2.5" strips but I figured you can cut them in half if you want or you can use the extra width for wh...
