Before I left for Texas this gal below (Christine) wanted to come over and do some more. Well....since I am here and she is there....Krista (you have met her on my blog) had a sew in and Christine did the following quillow. I think Krista worked on her Kalidascope quilt.
Isn't my friend Beautiful? when I leave Amerika Samoa I am going to make a book from my blog and I will have her picture forever in my book. Can't you tell that I miss my friends now and will when I leave?
Don't you just love the Samoa fabrics? I will say that the Samoan fabric is so much cheaper than the fabrics here in the US....shewee....you can plunk down a bundle on just a few yards of fabric. That was just a statement, not a gripe (hummmm or was it a gripe and not a statement)?
So are Samoan fabrics made locally? Have you been to the factory?
ReplyDeleteQuillows are so much fun to make and so useful. And the fabric on this one is striking! {and yes, your friend is very beautiful inside and outside...just like you}.

Hi Barb great quillows Do you give your patteren away. If you do could I please have it. A friend has given lots and lots of material from a garage sale and we were thinking about making them and giving them to our mission. Do you think there will be warm enough for them. They do sleep in a building.
ReplyDeleteYes,she is lovely,and a lovely memory,sewing with your friend too!!
ReplyDeleteI think it was a griping statement!!! LOL Thank goodness for the internet or you'd be a lot more sad when you leave AS....because you'd not be as easily able to keep in touch with your friends from there.
ReplyDeleteI agree the fabric is great!! Quillows are fun! Fast too! I can't believe how much they are at craft shows.Supply and demand I guess.
ReplyDeleteI love your Samoan fabric! I was thinking I might need to put in a special request/order for some before you leave (if possible). I would love to have a nice variety of colors in my stash. I've decided to make a quilt using the LeMoyne Star block and your gorgeous fabric. The colors are so much fun!
ReplyDeleteDefinitely...a pretty lady like you would have pretty friends. I love the fabrics you brought my sister and me, and will treasure them...gorgeous.
ReplyDeleteAre you going to go see Lee?
Samoan fabric is lovely, I like the colours and bold prints and love the book idea.
ReplyDeleteWasn't it nice of Krista to make me a quillow? lol Surely she knows that purple is my favourite colour...lol Great job to Krista on her quillow. I bet you've stocked up on the fabric by the time you leave hey Barb? Hugs Naomi
