Covered buttons are completely addictive! I haven't made any in awhile and after receiving my order yesterday I promply cut out 100 circles from my scrap bin! These are going to be magnets, I love magnets and my daughter has a blast rearranging the magnets on the fridge! Thinking about adding a magnet (paint) wall to the play room to use them there.
The
pixelated quilt is finally finished. I didn't have anyone to hold it up for me so these are the best shots I could get today. The backing is made from AH Raindrop Stripe yardage I had originally cut for curtain panels, I am happy it has left my scrap pile and is being used!
I sewed two long lines a 1/2" from the seam in each row. This is my first attempt at straight line sewing. It was much quicker than stippling, that's for sure. I quilted the entire thing using my
daughter's small table while accompanying her in the play room, lol! Really should have invited someone over to take a picture of that ridiculousness!!!
All my fabrics are currently in
Ikea boxes as we are getting our house prepped for staging to sell. I relocated the cabinet that previously housed them to the family room. So after much digging I found this red dot fabric I forgot I had. Yay for using something out of my stash!
I picked up this project the other day, it was started...ehem...a year ago and got tucked away, not sure why. I have to go to the store to get more Perle cotton in the correct colors, but I hope to share a finished product soon, lol! Have I mentioned my love for Anna Maria Horner fabrics? LOL

I love magnets too! Made some for Ben to play around with and put up a magnet wall in our kitchen since the fridge is brushed aluminum. Don't use the magnet paint! It is horrible. We used a whole can on a 2'x4' section of wall and framed it. Only small magnets will stick and half the time they will not hold up a single piece of paper. I would paint a sheet of steel from the hardware store, frame it, and use that instead. It is probably way cheaper too!
