New Shiny Curtains for the Sewing Room!

These had to be the easiest curtains I have ever made!  Found the fabric at JoAnn's Fabric during a 1/2 off sale!  Perfect for the sun room (sewing room) because the fabric is like a canvas and should last a long time.  I have to be very careful what I put in this room because of the direct sunlight. 
Ran to Lowe's and purchased a package of 20 screw hooks, 6" x 3-3/8" for holding of the rods.  Found some old curtain rods buried in the garage and used those.  Made nice 3" ties on each end of curtain so  you don't have to worry about unsightly hardware showing! 
Hope you are having a great Saturday!

It is going to be sunny all day so Penny & I are off to the Flea Market in search of some fun finds!

And You Thought SnipItUp Was On Vacation!

 We have been covered in thread from top to bottom for a couple of weeks!

While the computer was down with the flu (apparently the computer folks lost all our files!) we took advantage of the spare time to make new quilts. Computer is feeling oh-h so good with a new hard drive, ram and software.  Be sure to check out the store this Saturday to see the new items.  etsy.com/shop/snipitup


hmmmm going to rain all day.......off to the sewing room.
 

Weather man said nice and sunny all day, making it a

perfect day to finish this latest quilt.  A bit more challenging and with fun new prints from Moda!

Fun Weekend Project!

Found this old wood spool from an electrical company in Irvine and turned it into a usable cottage style bookcase.   Really easy to do...just sand, mark and drill holes on top and bottom for 3/4" dowels.  Cut dowels to size and apply with glue. Applied an off white stain with a cotton cloth and that was that!   

Our first Barn Yard Quilt!  Cutest chicken feet, peeking cow, rabbit ears and a chubby, little pigs bottom!
She has applied a barn door, roof and 4 windows.  Made with bright rose, soft yellows, pinks and greens.
