Man! I can't believe how long it has been since I came to my blog. I am, as usual in a big muddle of unfinished projects but have been plugging along on a few hand projects...cherry quilt mostly. I have 6 or 7 tops that I consider worthy that need to be put together. Unfortunately, once you use cotton batting , there's no going back so it's more expensive and I need to get a bunch. Fabric Depot will be having it on sale soon but I can't afford to stock up like I used to. I had some nice new large flannel blankets I was was thinking of shrinking and using but ended up donating them to a safe house.
Here is a pix of an old 1976 Blazer logo when they won the one and only championship game. I am thinking cross stitch maybe, for my daughter in law who works there. Problem is (besides ever getting it done) is that I really don't think she appreciates stuff like that and it is a lot of work. It came from an actual newspaper from the 76 victory and I would have rather transferred it right onto a piece of fabric but it's discolored at the fold and I couldn't scan that out. I have not tried freezer paper for that purpose yet but what I bought for my printer is too hard to peel off the fabric. Freezer paper would be MUCH cheaper so I need to try that. Plus the unlimited fabric choices! Don't get me started thinking about that. Anyone want a copy of this?
