Just wanted to share my little ginger babies…fresh out of the oven…
They turned out very sweet…if I do say so myself!! Hard to believe that these little guys are made out of some old wool jackets that I felted by throwing into the washer and then the hot dryer!
Yes, they are mighty cute…BUT they’re not the only babies in town…have you checked out the NEW Baby GO!!?
She’s adorable!
Lady GO! GO now has a BABY GO!GO! SEW cute!!
Baby GO!GO! is made for the woman on the GO! Hey, that’s ME!! The perfect travelling buddy…
Accuquilt has also released 10 NEW dies…and the small tumbler block is one on them!! I am SEW excited! Accuquilt sent out a questionnaire asking what dies we would like to see in the future and I said “a small tumbler block would be nice” and not even a week later there it is!! WOW! NOW I call THAT service!! :o)
See it’s only 3 1/2” compared to the big 6 1/2” tumbler that is out already. And if you lay 5 pieces of fabric on top of this die you are going to end up with 15 tumblers in one roll!! I will be able to cut out a whole quilt in less than 15 minutes!!
GO! to Accuquilt and check out the rest of the dies…you’re going to like them….
This morning I am off on an adventure with some quilting buddies, Claire and Dawn…we are going to the Boundary Bay Quilt Show. (Just outside of Vancouver.) I had to set my alarm for 5am as we are catching the 8 am ferry. YIKES!! Now that I am retired that is a Killer!! The things quilters will do to get to a Quilt Show or a Quilt Shop!! Start your engines and we are OFF!!
While at the show, I am hopefully meeting up with a blogging friend, Krista… better known for her POPPYPRINT Blog…WE have never met before so I am excited!! We have been emailing each other for over a year so it will be nice to put a voice and a face to her written comments!! I told her I would be the one wearing a rose in my hair and carrying a book (Pride and Prejudice)…just like in ‘You’ve Got Mail’…love that movie!…Hope she doesn’t stand me up! It will be a quick visit as we have less than 2 hours to do and BUY everything! The ferry won’t wait for late quilters!! Sheesh!
AND yes I am taking my camera!!
Have a super Saturday and Happy Quilting!~P
Your gingerbread topper is adorable! (an instant reminder that holidays or just around the corner)
ReplyDeleteThe gingerbread men are adorable! I need to make one.
ReplyDeleteHow fun to get to attend a quilt show and also to meet a fellow blogger. The getting up at 5 am does not appeal, though. I will be looking forward to quilt show pictures.
The ginger babies are so cute! And so is that little GO cutter.
ReplyDeleteLots of fun babies on your blog this morning! LOVE your gingerbread babies - adorable!!! The Go! Baby is perfect for someone like me that would enjoy having one just to cut template style quilts.
ReplyDeleteEnjoy the show; I'll be expecting a FULL report. teehee!!
Oh the Gingerbread Babies are so cute! Adorable for your table, great job!
ReplyDeleteIt is lovely i like that, the felt here is very expensive to buy is it over there
ReplyDeleteHugs Janice
Your gingerbread table topper is the cutest thing. Have fun at the quilt show. Thanks too for the link to Accuquilt, I don't have access to all of these websites while on vacation and I wanted to see the new dies. I think I'm going to want to get the small tumbler. Too bad I wont be able to meet you tomorrow. We are looking forward to the Enchanting Beauchart Gardens.
ReplyDeleteYour ginger babies are so sweeeeet! Really smart idea of yours to recycle the old jackets.
ReplyDeleteEnjoy your day!
Love your gingerbread men and I do like the smaller tumblers. I prefer small cuts, so hope to see more.

Wonderful wool mat for the holidays. Love the gingerbread and the way you cut them from camel wool and checkered wool. The look just splendid on the black background. I love using the theme of gingerbread in my own kitchen from Thanksgiving right thru Valentine's Day! I know... I extend the season on a bit, but I just love Gingerbread!
ReplyDeleteI love your gingerbread babies! How perfectly sweet!
ReplyDeleteSweet Ginger Babies! They are perfect for the kitchen table! Sounds like a fun time!
ReplyDeleteSWEET gingerbread men! Have a lovely time today and try not to fall asleep in your coffee - I think a quilt show or fabric road trip are the only things I'd get up that early for!
ReplyDeleteYour gingerbread men are really fab...love it!!
ReplyDeleteI love the gingerbread men!! love, love, love them! Thanks for placing them in your giveaway!

Maybe I'm not reading right but Amazon has a Go! for $209 right now. What's going on? Does that mean it's not including some vital stuff? blessings, marlene
ReplyDeleteThose little gingerbread men are very cute and I love the way you recycle into your crafting
ReplyDeleteHave a lovely time at the show.
I'm adding one of those Go machines to my Christmas list!
ReplyDeleteI love your gingerbread babies...so cute!
ReplyDeletehave a fun time at the show..

Stand you up???? Me??? I would never do that! I'm SO happy we met up today and my new, GORGEOUS, wool mug rug is already set up right here beside my keyboard. My husband just came in and said 'wow, where did that come from? It's nice!" Since you are a quilter, and you have a husband, you know what high praise this is, right? Like, high! Thank you Paulette! Mwah.
ReplyDeleteOh your little ginger babies are so adorable! I just love it!
ReplyDeleteHi Paulette!
ReplyDeleteI'm wanting to say
Glad you had a great time, it is now midnight in the middle of the country!
I can see you met up with Krista too!
Too bad you only had a few hrs at the show, did you get your scissors for you new scissor fob?
I bet you had something to stitch while on the ferry, too
Take care, Leslie
