Clearly Perfect Angels

New Leaf Stitches - Clearly Perfect Angels

Have you seen this yet? I know that there have been similar things/guides to be used but after seeing this and the video on where they demonstrated - I have it listed at the top of my Christmas wish list for Santa this year! ;)

I better make sure I remind him that I'll be in KY this year... so that he knows where to find my stocking ;)

Love from Texas!

...another Notion I may "need"

ok -so I should be in bed - but I am not sleepy - instead I have been searching for more binding tools and helps and have found one more thing that I think I may "need."It is called the Quick Easy Mitered-Binding Tool that I found on Eleanor Burn's website www.quiltinaday.com

Here is their description:

With this sturdy acrylic gadget, your bindings come out perfect and you save time. No longer do you have to piece or sew your binding. This tool allows you to bring your backing fabric to the front of the quilt and act as a binding! Several of us tested this product and all of us love it. It is especially great for small quilts, wallhangings and placemats. $15.95

Sounds like something that could be very useful if I had enough extra fabric from the backing to fold over and use on my quilts...

Again, I would love to hear your oppinions on this notion before ordering. ;c)

Oh, and too I found these thread snips on clearance on her website too for just $1.50. Whish I could see exactly how they work... but if I order the other gadget I will add these onto my order too. For $1.50 why not?

and an UPDATE - I did find ONE PAIR of my sissors that I had "lost" - you will never guess where I found them - in a basket I keep over the dryer that holds the grooming supplies for our miniature schnauzer, Jackson. Hummmm..... I've been infected by "baby brain" waaaaay to bad this time around as I have no recollection of how these got there!??!?!? LOL Now where on earth is the 2nd pair??? ~Bonnie

I found two things today!

I think I have found something that I "must" have b/c I sooooo need to finish up the bindings on a few quilts but don't remember much about bindings since it has been several years since I actually attached one to a quilt....

It's called the Binding Gizmo and today I watched as it was demonstrated on www.QNNTV.com

It is available from the Quilting Delights website.... and here is their description:

The Binding Gizmo
The one and only Binding Gizmo is a fast, accurate and simple tool to create perfect binding every time!! No more guessing, no more mystery, no more miscut angles, no more mistakes! Along with the Binding Gizmo, you will receive a 26 page spiral-bound book with instructions on how to use the Binding Gizmo to create perfect bindings every time! $24.95

I would love to hear from any of you out there that have this book and tool or have seen it used.... or know someone that has used it...... any feed back is welcomed - even if you never heard of it but click on the site and rad about it - your oppinion.... :c)

Also today while cleaning I found two checks each for $40 from David's grandma Reliford. These wer put up away from Christmas wrapping papers as to keep safe.... and boy were they safe. Four months later I discover them! One made out to him and the other to me!!!

Perhaps I will use my Christmas check from Grandma to order the Binding Gizmo. ~Bonnie
