I do like the way this book came out.

I give the credit to Holly for her instructions. It was fun to do. I have seen the one she will be teaching at the Quilt Walk this year and it is beautiful.

I don't have the words on the front yet but this is it otherwise.  The paper is called Laundry Line by My Minds Eye.
 
I did simplify it a little.

I wonder if I need a flower on this page.  Don't you just love those Martha Stewart border punches?

I liked the idea of leaving the right hand side page for journaling.

This is a gift to my dear cousin.  She is the only one who gets it about home made gifts. 

I sewed on some of these and although you can't really see it, it looks pretty good with the stiches on it.  I think I might try that again. 

Enjoy !

I found the pictures from last week so, a week late but here they are.

This is a quilt Beck finished from the quilt walk.  It is so pretty IRL.

LaVee hand quilted this beautiful star.

Here we are listening intently to Holly so we can put our books together.  It was kind of like a puzzle.

I don't know if you can see the cute paper but each book will be unique and they are super cute.  Holly spent hours getting the kits ready for us.

Here is Beckys latest block.

Enjoy!

Last Wednesday was sew night.

In stead of sewing some of us began making a book like those Holly makes.  Holly did all the work of cutting and putting the kits together.  It was great fun but of course our books are not done.  One more night should do it.  I hope.  She sews on her pages and it makes them look so finished.  I am not sure mine are going to look that good.  I will try to show you the great kits she put together and all of us working so hard as soon as my camera shows back up.  Dianne who is expecting a new grand baby is making the cutest baby book.  Holly really was able to make kits for each of us that fit our personalities. She is going to be teaching the class at the quilt walk this year.  I am thinking of making one to keep pictures of my quilts in. It may take me a couple of years though to fill it up. 
We have sew night again tomorrow because guild meeting was changed to the 27th.  MaryLou is going to show us how to do rope baskets.  It should be fun.
