idea sources

Recently, I bought the book "One Yard Wonders." It is full of very cool projects that use a yard or less of fabric. (That is where I found little Abe's pattern.) Yesterday, I tried my hand at a new laptop sleeve.

The one I had made years ago has sadly seen better days. I decided to use a bunch of scraps of my favorite fabrics I have saved over time.

I save a lot of random stuff. Including a huge old tack board I've had since I was a kid. It was really big, and haggard looking. I cut out a piece and covered it in this festive green fabric.
