zanthessI started on another project... *holds hands out for slapping*
I was going through some boxes in storage to toss old stuff out and make room for new stuffs and whatnot, and came across a box filled with all of my old girl scout patches. Even though I do still have some nasty memories of being in my troop, but fond memories of being with my dad (he went on all the camping trips with us) makes them important.
I'm currently taking all the patches off of my uniforms, and will be sewing them onto squares of denim (denim will be acquired while "treasure hunting" at the local Good Will), and then all will be assembled together to make my first quilt.
After dating a guy a few years back, I always remembered the denim quilt he had that I stole every time that felt so good, not because it was warm, but because it was heavy.
I will also be using the fabric from my old uniforms by cutting them into strips and using them in the border of my quilt. That way everything stays together!
And! I'm taking my mom on the Western Washington Quilt Shop Hop next week. If you go to 16 stores you get to enter into a drawing for a sewing machine....
I'm such a dork.
