Creative Day in the Quilt Lab

Here is how I can tell.  It's a big mess!
I am getting ready for two events.  I am giving a talk next week on Pennsylvania patchwork pillowcases.  I tailor the talk to the audience and the time allotment each time.  This time I had to resist the temptation to bring too many pillowcases.  It is so hard to decide.
The other event I am  preparing for is the Pennsylvania German Folk Art Sale held at the Mennonite Heritage Center in Harleysville, PA in December (www.mhep.org).
I have designed a new needle case for this year.

Many other color combinations in progress.

Time to get back to work!

    My sewing room (sunroom) today looks similar to yours, only I think mine is in worse disarray! I'm sure those little needle cases will be much loved! Have fun at your events! ---"Love"

    My sewing room ALWAYS looks like that. I am always moving things to another space only to find that I need that space for the next step! Good luck on your presentations and the little needle case is super sweet.

    I love the little needle cases. Especially the one with the cheddar/red polka dot fabric. I blogged about that fabric on 9/27/12 from Cape Cod because I saw some of it in an antique shop in some quilts and when I had gotten the reproduction fabric prior to that, it didn't seem like it could be authentic - to my untrained eye anyway. I just can't get enough of repro fabric!
