It didn't seem like 20 days ago since my last post but that is what it says! Time is flying by like crazy isn't it?
I really haven't done a whole lot of sewing during that time either. But here is what I did get done. I pieced five of my Gobble it Up! table runners. I like knowing that I have a stash of them in my closet ready to be quilted when the busy season starts. That way I only have to quilt them up and get them listed in my Etsy shop when it gets closer to fall.
One day I visited a local quilt shop, you know looking for a few new pieces of fabrics to inspire me. They were having customer appreciation days with door prizes. I didn't even know what the prizes were, but I signed up, it doesn't hurt to do that;) And at the end of the day they called to say I was one of four grand prize winners!!! OMG here is what I won. A CutterPillar light box! This is going to be really nice to use for both applique and for my card making. It is thin and pretty light weight and that it is a pretty green doesn't hurt either! The neat thing is that it has a cutting mat with gridlines that you lay over it and you can cut right there. I'll be anxious to try it out.
Even though I didn't get a lot of sewing done I still had a good week. I hope you all did too. Hopefully I will have more quilting time and energy this week!
I have a CutterPillar Glow and I absolutely LOVE it. It is the best thing in my sewing space. I plan to get one for my craft space someday. What a great prize to win.
ReplyDeleteThanks for sharing. It looks like they come in a wide variety of prices which I assume means some do more than others. I will have to think about that one. I look forward to seeing what you do with yours.
ReplyDeleteOh, lucky you! I hope you post a review once you've used it so we can hear what you think!
ReplyDeleteThat is a great score. Congrats. Yes, getting those table runner tops ready is a good idea.
ReplyDeleteGlad you've had a chance to piece some of your turkey runners! They're so cute! That looks like a great win, too. Congratulations!
ReplyDeleteWoooow! So fun that you won that prize, Vicki! Looks like something you'll get a lot of use out of!
ReplyDeleteCongratulations on your win! That is a very nice prize. Hope you are doing well and found some energy.
ReplyDeleteHi Vicki! Well, how cool is that?! I've never heard of the CutterPillar Glow but it sure looks handy. Of course, your turkey runners look spiffy, too. I know those will sell well! ~smile~ Roseanne
ReplyDeleteI find that prizes are often useless but I don't think you could have won a more perfect prize for you! Congrats!
ReplyDeleteLucky you Vicki winning the CutterPillar. I had seen one of those demonstrated at a quilt show a few years ago.
ReplyDeleteWhat fun to win the CutterPillar. I have another brand and I so love it!
