Before we went off to Calgary I made a little knitting needle roll for Jessica. She has taken up knitting and has been busy making scarves and blankets and such. I didn't post about it before we left because it was a surprise.
I made it out of Laurel Burch fabric. Perfect fabric for Jessica. I included the collection of knitting needles that I got from Jim's mum.
It was a pattern that I found online. Very easy to make up and I might just make a few more.
Love the cats!! I love Laurel Burch fabric. I have a great collection and it was nice to find a good use for some of it.
All rolled up with a couple of black ribbons.
I am working the next two days and then I am going to a beading workshop with Eileen Neill on Saturday. I am quite excited about this workshop. If you go the the website and click on the Beading picture you will see what I am going to be making. It is really cool! I have always wanted to do the beading embellishments on quilts but have never been brave enough to figure out how to do it myself.
I have made up my little "quiltlett" and I am all ready to go! I hear she is a wonderful teacher and I have seen her fabulous collection of beads she had for sale at our Quilt show last September. So I plan to take lots of money with me to the workshop!!
Wish me luck!
Wow, I love the needle roll. I have always wanted to make one, and have never had the courage. Was it an online tutorial, or a pattern that you purchased? The fabric is just darling.
