It always seems to be busy the week of the Quilt and Craft show at Darling Harbour. Heaps of people come in to the store because they have seen machines at the show that they just love and want to see more. We are going tomorrow (Saturday) taking a bus load of ladies with us.
I have finished another bag this week. This one by Moonshine Designs. There are 2 designs in the pattern, this is just one. 
It is done with the Krinkle Magic. This is what it looked like before it had shrunk. About a fat quarter size of fabric and I cross hatched the fabric about a half inch apart.
After I steamed it with the iron it shrunk in about 1 minute. It was so quick. I love it, BUT is isn't cheap. One packet which is about a 1 meter piece sells for about $44.00, in saying that I only used homespun so what I saved on fabric I spent on Krinkle Magic.
I also LOVE the flower and the side where the handles go. I will do the next bag next week so keep an eye at for that one. It has a bigger flower so that will be fun... LOL..... Anyone that wants to do this Bag ,just let me know so I can start on kits. It will be later in next Term.
Today we had a software lesson on Embird. It was great and BIG thank you to Lesley for teaching us. We had a great day and before we knew it, it was 4.30. Boy the day went quick. We probably could of sat there all night, but we wouldn't want to go to the show in the morning and we are looking forward to that.
Thursday night was the monthly Guild meeting. It was only a few of us that braved the cold weather but we got alot done. This year our charity is sewing up pillows and bags for the hospitals for there Breast Cancer patients. We actually finished a hole bag. YAH.
