Gathering Supplies

372149907
The supplies for the David Taylor workshop on Sat and Sun are gathered into one place. There are the boxes of baggies in two different sizes and the box of freezer paper. There is the mini iron and it's holder, a very heavy coffee mug. There is the can of spray starch. There are the two towering piles of fat quarters and half yards of fabrics with their matching threads. A plastic pencil box holds the needles, pins, scissors, pencils, eraser, paint brush for the starch, business cards and other supplies.

Can you pick out the absolutely luscious fabrics that came in the mail from VickiW's Etsy shop? Here is a link to her blog, Field Trips in Fiber. There is one of Vicki's greens that is going to be absolutely PERFECT for the flower center. Woohoo! And the pinks are to dye for (pun intended). Some of my own hand-painted fabric is included but it might be a bit difficult to needle.

The ironing surface that is leaning up against the sewing machine carrier (the carrier is not going), the three rolls of paper that comprise the pattern(s) for the 32x42 inch quilt, and all the other paraphernalia will fit wonderfully into Auntie's wire cart and only one trip from the car to the classroom will have to be made. It's all about conserving energy, baby.

Do you see what is on the design wall behind the carrier? It is the infamous Firewood Quilt. More in a later post.

  3. Don't you just love starting a new project? I love collecting all the fabrics and notions and embellishments. I can see the finished project in my head. Too bad I rarely get to see the finished project! LOL

  7. Hope you have a great time at your workshop. The cart is a great idea for wrangling all your supplies into the building in one trip. The only think I use mine for is to hold the leaf bag in the fall when cleaning up the yard.
