An Unexpected Find

craftborg@gmail.com (http://www.craftborg.com) — Wed, 23 Jul 2008 13:40:32 +0000

In the midst of all my travels in the past few weeks, my family spent some time with my in-laws. My mother-in-law is not crafty AT ALL and has no desire to be. However, she has great appreciation for handcrafted items - particularly quilts. An elderly cousin passed away recently and my in-laws now have a lot of her things, including several quilts that she pieced together and quilted. My mother-in-law showed me one and said she wants to use it as a wall-hanging, which is a great way to display a quilt. The one she was considering was a nice quilt, but then she mentioned that she had another one she could use and asked what I thought. As soon as I saw it, I realized there was no thinking required - it was a no-brainer!

This is a postage-stamp quilt. Every square is 1″x1″. We don’t know what year it was made, but it is likely that it was both hand-sewn and hand-quilted. If I remember correctly, it was not my in-laws’ cousin who made this quilt, but rather a friend of hers. In any case, it is a treasure and I hope my mother-in-law can find a way to display it. It deserves some recognition.

C-Borg Radar -Seller- The Daily Pincushion

craftborg@gmail.com (http://www.craftborg.com) — Thu, 10 Jul 2008 18:40:53 +0000

In my recent meanderings around Etsy (Doesn’t everyone just randomly cruise around to peruse the eye-candy?) I found the coolest Etsy shop filled with the most beautiful pincushions.

The Daily Pincushion specializes in floral designs crafted in felt and thread, like miniature paintings. The detail is lovely.

Check them out and also be sure to notice the adorable small emery cushions that can be made to match the larger ones. I’m in love.

I wasn’t paying attention today, recorded a 14 minute vlog entry, and broke the rules of YouTube by trying to upload it. Apparently there is a 10 minute limit there. Who knew? Anyhow, it is still here for you to enjoy if you’d like, just not within a YouTube player, sigh. I promise to behave next week.
