I must have a fabric addiction!

I don't seem to be able to stop buying fabric.  I check every day on ebay, etsy, artfire, twitter and the numerouse fabric sites I have to see if there is something I have to have or if a fabric I am almost out of is available.  It is crazy!  I just bought fabric today that I really didn't need but wanted.  I love Patty Young.  She has some great fabrics and she just came out with some new ones.  I had to buy some from her new fabric today.  Here is one of her fabrics I did a board from:

Amy Butler is my Fav!

I fell in love with her Lotus group and this is one of the fabrics

What do you think?  It is different.

                                                                                                                          

Here is a new Board!

I have gotten some Amy Butler fabric that I can make one board from and here is one of them.  I just thought instead of buying lots of fabric for one board, I would just try enough fabric for one board and it would be one of a kind.  I love Amy Butler fabric.  What do you think?

Check out this board!

Here is another board I made to go in my Western Collection.  I didn't realize that there weren't many western memory boards available in the market so I am hoping I have a new thing going.  I put a concho in the middle and instead of using ribbon I used leather strips. 

I have made ten boards

I am so caught up in Western Material that I have been making boards in several and now I have 10 boards and really no buyers.  I think they make great looking boards but I am not sure if they are going to sell.  My son picked up 5 to take to his church tonight because he thinks he can sell them there. But I guess I will have to wait and see.  I just didn't know there was so much fabric out there until now.  I am really hoping I can find a market for it because I have not found any other western boards for sale and this may get me out of the designer fabric I have been doing boards in for a while. 

Well Spring was short lived!

It started snowing about noon but it didn't stick just left a mess.  I was really hoping for spring.  I made a new board for a girl at work and I think it is so cute.  It has cats and kittens on it in a garden.  Lots of colors.  It is just so cute!  I bought more material to make more boards, I am like an addict when it comes to fabric.  I am always looking for something that will make a great board.  It is a good thing that I am selling some boards so I can buy more material.    By the way, I finally sold my 100th board.  That is quite a feat for me. 

What do you think?  You know what I think.

Thursday night blues

I have been on Etsy looking at other member's shops and realize how talented these people are. They range from drawings to paintings, from all type of jewelry ideas to hairbows. My crafts seem very minor to theirs. I make quilts, mainly for family and friends. I tried to sell them on Etsy without much luck.
I enjoy making my boards because I take an idea I have and I build it. Most of the time I get good results. Sometimes not so good!
Anyway it is fun to see the ideas people come up with craftwise!
