Got Scraps?




So I started making this blanket, but I couldn't keep going with it because it became difficult to sew more squares onto it with my machine. Maybe I'll work on it some more in the future. For now, it's going to be a crib blanket.

Welcome to our new blog!

Ok, it's the same blog, but with a different purpose.

We're going to post messages and photos of our creative projects. Anything from quilts to bathroom tiling; whatever you work on, we want to see it!

Creativity is defined as "the ability to transcend traditional ideas, rules, patterns, relationships, or the like, and to create meaningful new ideas, forms, methods, interpretations, etc.; originality, progressiveness, or imagination."

I believe it's our creativity that allows us to be more than just ordinary. Your creative nature does not have to be worthy of a place in a museum; it just has to bring a smile to your face (or someone else's) and allow you to feel at peace amidst the chaos in our lives.

So, the next time you prepare a new recipe, reorganize your closets (yes, that can be creative), sew a blanket, or do something that required creativity and the use of your imagination, let us know about it.
