A week-long Making Friday
Happy 2011, everyone!
I’ve been lurking a bit, postponing the start of the year proper, not quite checking email or getting blog posts written (except over at ELLE Decoration, of course), but that doesn’t mean I’ve been getting a tan or anything. How could I have, when a sample pack of strikeoffs from the Cut Out & Keep fabric collection I designed for the Cloud9 Fabrics Designer Series just arrived in my postbox? Just look at those babies – such a satisfying result from such a fun collaboration.
Of course, my fingers started itching to make something with them, and once I got going, it was hard to stop. Take a look at what I made:
I’ve got more pics and closeups of Cut Out & Keep at my Flickr page. If you like what you see, get in touch with Cloud9 Fabrics to pre-order yours (shipping in April).

love the prints!
and especially love the pincushion. do you make them to sell?
skinnylaminx
Thanks, Jacci. I haven’t added pincushions to my list of things to make, but this was pretty easy to do, so maybe I will. If you’d like to try it yourself, check out this tutorial at http://blog.creativekismet.com/2007/11/16/patchwork-pincushion-tutorial/
