KAFFE FASSETT CRAZY



Yes, I think I have determined that I am Kaffe crazy! I seem to gravitate towards his fabrics. Something about the randomness of design and riot of color is so cheerful and appealing to me. I had tons of small strips and scraps left over from my "S" quilt and decided to sit down and crazy patch them together in kind of a wonky log cabin pattern. This is what I came up with! I padded the handle on this laptop bag and made it extra roomy to accommodate a larger laptop. I also added an interior pocket for my charger. I love it!

BEAUTIFUL RINGS FROM THE TAFFY BOX


Look what I found when browsing for items to put in my "the ties that bind" Treasury. I loved these so much that I had to order some for myself. I had been wanting silver bands to wear on my thumb and these are available in custom sizes from www.thetaffybox.etsy.com.
The beautiful customization is what sold me! Koryn the shop owner was wonderful to work with and offers several different fonts and decorative icons to make these rings so special!
