Archive for May, 2010. Can I just say that I’ve ALWAYS wanted a vintage metal frame bed? I’m obsessed with them. Well, the bed fairy came to my house yesterday (aka, my parents). They had one in storage that needs some love. I have always lusted after the ornate ones, but this one just seems to scream – paint me bright turquoise! It’s missing the vertical braces on the foot board, but isn’t it lovely? I think it will be amazing once it’s done! Don’t you just LOVE the fabrics that are on the bedding?

I promise…. One day I’ll be better about blogging and updating! I wanted to show you guys how the old metal bed in our guest bedroom turned out. Thanks to my super sweet hubby, the bed was sanded and rust was removed. I went ahead and sprayed painted both the headboard and foot board with a Rustoleum Heavy Rust Primer. After applying a very yummy color from the new Martha Stewart line at Home Depot (a product that I highly recommend), here is the end product! I also received the other day in the mail a c...

If you sing a song, i’ll quilt along…. I came across this quote in the most recent issue of. And fell in love with it. If you haven’t ever seen this magazine, go check it out! It’s great inspiration to get the creative juices flowing and it’s also very intriguing with the stories that they share of these women artists, such as Amy Butler, about how and where they got started.

How to make patterned letters. If you sing a song, i’ll quilt along…. Getting ready for fall…. The weather here is perfect after several, several hot days. It’s drizzly, rainy and isn’t supposed to be warmer than 75. I’ve been craving doing some fall projects, but when it’s still so hot outside, it’s really hard to think pumpkins, leaves, and beautiful autumn colors. Here are some of the projects I’m going to be working on in the next week or so. She also has instructions for tomatoes! 4 New garden flag ...

8216;s blog this morning that the 2011 color of the year is honeysuckle! They had a great collage of the different fabrics in this color. SO fun! A few weeks ago I ran across this amazingness on the Somance Design. It’s intended for color matching, but I think it would be amazing in a quilt! Until then, I’ll just play with my swatches from Voler that I use for bike jerseys. Here’s to the year of the honeysuckle! Responses to “PMS…”. Feed for this Entry. Leave a Reply Cancel reply.

Craft'n Time: Ribbon and Burlap Tassel

http://craftntime.blogspot.com/2010/05/ribbon-and-burlap-tassel.html

Wednesday, May 5, 2010. Ribbon and Burlap Tassel. After making lots of Keychains and a few ribbon topiaries, I have accumulated many, many ribbons. A trip to the mart of wal furnished the burlap and another trip to various local craft stores yielded the trims and wooden letter. Basically, I googled "fancy tassels" and found several tutorials, but this may have been my favorite one to follow: http:/ betasseled.blogspot.com/. So what do you think? Should I take this to the shop that sells my keychains?

Sweating to the oldies…. Getting ready for fall…. How to make patterned letters. Ashley asked me awhile back how to make pattered letters in Photoshop. You can also do it in Illustrator, it’s a little different, but if you are interested, I can do that one, too. I’m using CS4 for Mac. 1 So you can do one of two things to get started. A) Open up a file that you have already. 8211; or –. So, I’m going to go to file new. You’ll get a pop-up window that looks like this:. And that your resolution is 72. This ...
