Cabin Fever

No I don't really have cabin fever, I have been to busy for that.
I have been trying to write a pattern for a handbag I designed. I showed the handbag to Mary at the quilt shop she said if I wrote up the pattern she would buy it from me. A tough assignment for my old brain, but also a challenge.
I received a 2 month free trial of Microsoft Office, with my new laptop,so in addition to learning to writing a pattern, I am also trying to teach myself how to use Microsoft Office, at the same time.


I have also been cutting strips in my spare time for
Bonnie's Orange Crush Mystery quilt,
she posted the next step on her web site, You can find it here http://quiltville.com/orangecrushmystery1.shtml This months directions involves making 150, 4" fourpatch blocks, before we get the next step in the pattern.



In addition I have a new project,
The next quilt I will be making for the shop is called "Cabin Fever".


I will be using these wonderful Moda flannels "Cozy Cabin"


From the Book called "Cozy Cabin Quilts".


Sew that is what I have been up to lately.

Happy Quilting!
