I wanted to share with you a little gifty/pattern I'm working on but 'eeks' and 'yikes' - I've been so busy launching geese (my friends on "Easy Street" will understand that) - I've run out of time to get my 'tute' together.
But I can show you a pic of a nifty 'cord keeper' my friend Lauri made.
If you've been following my blog - you will remember I posted a tutorial to make these "cord keepers" - they are super for holding various computer cords, Ereader cords, earbuds...you get the idea. They're sooooo easy to make - and would make great stocking stuffers!
Lauri enlarged hers to accommodate her Kindle charger...I think she got very scientific and used her cereal bowl for a larger circle - heh heh. Yes, you can make this any size!
If you're new here - or just plum forgot - you can find the original tute HERE.
Now don't forget:
1)Leave a comment for a chance to win the "Mountain Majesty" panel - that's all, just a comment.....nothing special...a simple "I was here and I think you're awesome" will do ~ LOL.
2)Take a peek at the 'cord keepers' if you missed them before or just wanna peek again
3) Hop over to the PARTY - and see who else is joining in the fun - rumor has it there are OVER 150 Bloggers ready to Party Hardy!!! (a full list will be available after midnight (EST) Sunday night.
Til Laters....

What a great panel! I love using panels to make lap quilts for my husband and kids because they're fast, they look nice, and I don't need to worry about any seams coming undone through rough use.
ReplyDeleteGreat cord keeper tutorial. Those will make good stocking stuffers. :)
I love the christmas picture you have. It took me a moment to realize those are pigs not reindeer. These eyes must be getting tired. I can't wait to try that tutorial for myself. Thank you for a chanc eto enter your giveaway.
