Part 2

After a good night sleep and a little coffee and eats we were ready for the last 2 shops,
then home.



We drove from Overland Park KS. to Lamar MO. 


Big place with loads of fabric and nice people. 

I found some great deals



After they served us a yummy lunch we were off to our last stop.


The Rabbit's Lair in Rogers, Arkansas.
Located in the historic part of Rogers in what was originally a drug
store.



I have been to this shop many times over the years and Mary, the owner is a friend of mine. 




You never know what you will find in her shop, it's a wonderful surprise and I never fail to come home with a bag of goodies. 




Like this time I found this beautiful line of blue and grey fabric.
Plan on making it up in a orange peel pattern.

After that it was head home.
Just a wonderful 3 days and can't wait till the next time.

How to Make a Portable Design Wall

I had wanted to get a portable design wall to take to retreats but did not want to pay the price. Looked at various pins on pinterest and took ideas from more than one to come up with my verison. It worked out great and only cost a fraction of the price. The PVC pipes, joints and 2 yards of felt cost under $22.00 My design wall is 4' x 4' which stands approximately 5 1/5' tall. For this size need 2 - 10ft length of 3/4" PVC pipe for the frame and 4ft of 1" PVC pipe for the feet Cut the 3/4" PVC into 4 - 4' section                                                                                       2 - 1' section              Cut the 1"  PVC into 4 - 1' section          The joints you'll need will be 2 - 3/4" elbows 2 - 3/4" T's 2 - 3/4" to 1" T (this will be the base of the Feet) 4 - 1" elbow Also need pipe cutters (this cost me almost as much

Yarn Along 2/20/13 Spoon Pin Doily

It's snowing here and I know some of you are tired of snow but here we will take the moisture any way we can get it. Plus it just gives me a reason to stay in and work on some of my projects. In this picture I'm not sure if you can make it out but in the background there are some wild turkeys that hang around the house sometime, just  chilling This project I'm working on is Spool Pin Doilies.   I had never heard of them before until Bonnie Hunter had mentioned it on her blog . She a had a viewer send her one for her sewing machine along with a pattern. I did not like the pattern but loved the idea so I decided to make up my own version. I wanted a more simple, smaller and fuller doily. So I tried different thread sizes to get one that I like. (From left to right) I tried sock yarn, which I'll redo because I think I like that look. Heavy weight crochet thread, nope too big Bamboo yarn, I like it. Looks good on my Kenmore. Pearl cott
