A friend of mine put on facebook last night that she was looking for a friend who quilts to make a few things for her. She and I had quite the discussion, let me tell you!

First up: Three protective hanging bags about the size of pillow cases where she can keep her completed counted cross stitch pieces safe and dust free. I'll put a 1/2" dowel across the top fold and stitch it in place. I'll leave a slit in the top center for the hanger and put a zipper in the bottom. I may go crazy and put a zipper down the center front as well. What do you think?

Next, she wants a wall hanging made from a fairy panel she found in deep purples rich greens. After that she wants a tote bag a la Vera Wang to keep her current stitching projects.

Last but not least she wants a lap quilt made out of the same fairy fabric.

Should be interesting and I'm looking forward to the challenge.
