Primitive Mag.....
I have just seen one of the projects in the new Prim Mag, a lovely quilt/ wall hanging. The girls are expecting to have the mag mid January. Guess we'll be a couple of weeks after that. I order extras so if you want one just let me know. Looks like it will still be $13.00.
Done, thought you might like it.

The borders are on......
And the quilt is ready to go to Lisa to be quilted. Threw it on my bed this morning to take a pic for you, my bed is only a double, but this quilt fits nicely. When let you see it when Lisa has worked her magic. It really only took me a couple of hours to put together, you've got to love that.
Its $13 Julie, and an extra $3 if you want it posted. Is that ok, will be ordering tomorrow.
Cheers

Kits.....
They tell me kits are the way to go. I agree they sell well in the shop, l just find there never seems to be enough time to organise them. I hope to do a lot more kits once we move. But of course that's still a coupl;e of months off so l may as well give them a go. l have moved the Kit Album to ...

Had a lady call in yesterday to tell me she was making a scrap quilt and had run out of scraps, She asked if l had any to spare. She seemed sursprised when l told her that l bag the scraps up into fat 1/ 4 scrappy packs and sell them. She wasn't interested in that. I am heading down to the butch...
