Quick Stuff to Sew magazine & win one!

IMG_6064

Just a ‘quick’ post while I write a more thorough one on my weekend watching the judging at Quilt National.

As you may have seen in last Christmas’ post, I made dozens of mittens from recycled sweaters that I felted. I sent the directions into Threads magazine with many samples for photography this summer. Yesterday I got the finished issue and found that I had the BACK COVER!!

It should be on newsstands soon so pick up a copy. Lots of interesting projects to make for yourself or as gifts. My Koos loop scarf is also in there too….a fabulous fast gift to make!

Leave a comment on some projects you’d like to see in next issue and I’ll select a winner for a free copy of this magazine on Oct. 6! But please leave your email address so I can contact you.

    First, I want to say I've made several short versions of the Koos scarf, so thanks for that! Your mittens look so cute!

    Hmm... How about a simple wrap with different ways to wear it? I even have a simple idea, but I bet there are much better ideas.

    I haven't had the pleasure of reading this magazine as of yet. I'll sure have to keep my eye out for this issue at the newsstand!

    I've never heard of this magazine before!
    How about a cowl? The weather is turning cooler here and a cowl would be perfect!
