Great idea: CQ needle books

September 13, 2008 by Denise Felton 4 Comments

Photo by Maureen of CrazyQstitcher blogMaureen of CrazyQstitcher blog used CQ hearts she received in a swap to make beautiful little needle books. She says, “How easy it is when someone else has done the work.  All I needed to do was line each heart, add felt for needles and stitch the tops together.” Good thinking, Maureen! And beautiful results. See more examples in Maureen’s blog post.

    Thank you Denise for dropping in to my blog. I am happy that you decided to share the easy needlebook with others. Too long have my received hearts been UFOs. I still have more than 100 to use. LOL

    I forgot to say what an interesting blog this is. I have bookmarked it. Is there an easier way to keep up to date with it? Maureen

    I’m so glad you asked that, Maureen. If you look in the right-hand column of this page, you’ll see a category called “Feeds” with a big orange button. Just click the link for Needlework News feed and follow the directions. Then all of the posts will go directly to your e-mail in-box! Cool, huh? 🙂

    Thanks Denise, I’ve gone for the Needlework news.
    I have my templates cut for the Apple and Pear by UKlassinUS and am about to start on them.

    Thanks for hosting a great site
