Over at my Oilcloth Addict blog I a little Q & A segment. Here's my favorite Q & A post ever....

I found this question in my inbox today and I think that it's the best question ever. I do have some ideas on what to do with oilcloth, twenty ideas in fact!!

Q: What can you do with oilcloth?

A: I have an entire book coming out about a month that will answer that for you. Sewing with Oilcloth is a pretty little book filled with 20 patterns with lovely pictures by Meghan McSweeney Photography. There is an entire chapter filled with tips, tools and trims that will make sewing with oilcloth fun and easy! The other 3 chapters have projects for you, for your home and for your little ones. There are projects of oilcloth, laminated cotton and chalk cloth.

In the meantime please check out my Oilcloth Addict Blog for tutorials, basic tips, and loads of great ideas from the crafty community and my fellow oilcloth addicts! 

Many thanks and happy sewing,
Kelly

Creative Insight!

I just loved today's Twitterscope!  I see this as sage advice, as I have carved out the entire weekend to work on the first five projects for my book. See all the planets have lined up for me, I made sure all  the orders would be out of the way and I have a new MacBook Pro (my new baby) to help me stay organized. I have started on several projects already but they need tweeking and the patterns need perfecting. After all, I've got to do ya'll proud!  

The light bulbs in your brain begin to flash with creativity today. You feel alive and refreshed, ready to make good use of all the ideas that are coming your way. But turning an inspiration into a concrete plan can be tricky business, so you're inclined now to handle it slowly and deliberately. Nevertheless, don't be overly cautious; respond to the current opportunities by being willing to take a calculated risk.

Thanks for all the love this week, I am so happy to share the BIG NEWS!  

xoxox,
