Small Splurges

OK, it's been a hectic week.  The most exciting thing I can find to write about this weekend is last weekend's shop hop.

I had a list of supplies for future projects and mostly stuck to the boring list:

-  2.5 yards of white fabric

- black pearl cotton

- sewing machine needles

I also found some supplies I could use:

- really nice wool felt

- a zipper

And, finally a few small splurges:

- a kit to make a flower pin (see picture above)

- 2 fat quarters (see picture below)

In my free time this week I got the pin mostly assembled.  I still need to finish the back and attach the pin.  I refuse to use hot glue like the instructions insist.  I really like this pattern and will probably make more of these flowers in the future.  They'll make cute gifts.

And here are my fat quarters.  No, I don't really need animal prints but the called to me.  I'll fit them into a fun small quilt or a bag sometime.  But, currently I have no plans for them.

Good news is that a longer weekend is here.  Hopefully I'll get to work on my projects and have something more exciting to report next week.
