I follow Allie’s blog, and she’s also a member of Crazy Quilting International. I was very excited to get her book. As my daughter used to say when she was tee-niny, “Candy, candy, candy!”

Playing with Angelina!
Yeah, I know, that’s Brad’s job, but I’m talking about Angelina fibers. I bought a few packs of it at the needlearts extravaganza in Statesville. I experimented with embossing the fibers with a rubber stamp and iron:
This snowflake stamp wasn’t “cut” deep enough to work well, so I chose what I hoped would be a better one:
I posted this photo on the CQI challenge site, and won a ‘squishie” full of crazy quilting goodies:
I’ll post a photo of my winnings when they arrive! I’m very excited!

Internet Goodies!
Well here I am again, night #2 of a hateful virus that has me feverish, then freezing (malaria?–no, that’s a sporozoan!) Except for steping out on the porch to snap a couple of photos, I have spent my day (and now my night) surfing the net in search of all things needle worthy.
I recently joined the Yahoo group of Crazy Quilting International. It’s actually 4 groups and you need to join all 4 to access all it’s features:

The eye candy alone is worth the trouble. It’s so rich, you can feel your teeth rot when you look at it!
I visited fellow members’ blogs:
