FUN ! FUN!! FUN!!!!!!

I know you are wondering what I am doing with all of that...that...well...that!!!



I am making them into these....


A month or so ago Robin sent me a note pad just like the one above (different fabric). I told her that I so loved it and if she didn't mind if I tried to mimick it and make some of my own. Well.... Robin being the generous person she is, sent me the pattern.....now you can have it, just go here Fast, easy, fun...and makes for a great gift because I sooooo love mine.

Oh....will you take a second to click on my side bar where it says Connecting Threads and go over and vote for Gene's fabric....

    It's one of my favorite patterns Barb. It really goes so well with the Tote Along. I often make both as a gift for someone.

    Great looking notepad! That is a very clever idea for a gift for an office mate.

    Thanks for the shoutout about my fabric designs.
