While I was cleaning I found this little bookmark I made when I was in my early teens. My grandma had taught me how to hand embroider on pillowcases and now I wanted to just do my own thing. I took a piece of grosgrain ribbon and did my sloppy version of satin stitch embroidery, not knowing the correct way to do it. When I finished both sides I placed them back to back and did a whip stitch all around the bookmark. This was probably the first Wanda Original.
I LOVE Hoffman batiks. They are silkier than all of the other brands and I really like the patterns they come up with. Batiks Plus carries only Hoffman brand batiks. They sell 40" yards at a price equal to or lower than most quilt shops (which sell 36" yards).
They also send you free fat quarter gifts with your order. AND I ordered on Tuesday and got my package on Wednesday. I would call that great service.
The week before that I received my package of some new Kaffe Fassett fabrics from "From Here to Quilternity". Her price is the best I have found and these fabrics aren't carried in my local quilt shops.
Now I just need to start cutting and sewing.
