Well, it's another rainy day at the Z Farm. I am working on a quilt for a friend's baby. After deciding on a design and choosing the fabric, I made a block and discovered I really didn't like it. Back to the drawing board! I used a different fabric for the center blocks and so far I like how it looks. However, this morning I felt like I needed a quick project to get done today. The quilt would just take too long. I looked through my pile of quick projects and decided to make a little sewing book to organize my pins and needles. This will be nice for quick repairs or to grab to take with me on a trip. The directions came from the Martha Stewart website. I wanted to make the cover a little decorative and try my hand at needle felting. I used the tools shown, cut out my flower from blue wool batting and used wool yarn for the leaf and stem. I really like the way it turned out! Now I feel like I created something and actually got it completed in less than an hour.
