    What I did yesterday

    My quilting guild (which I've just joined) require you to wear a name tag . . . if you show up for a meeting without yours they charge you a quarter. Some of the women have gotten quite creative in making their tags - so I thought I just HAD to follow suit. I've had this working in my brain for a couple months and yesterday I decided I just had to finish it. The name is sewn on my embroidery machine, the patchwork is an altered disappearing 9-patch that was sewn on my "Kate Smith" Singer Featherweight. It has a light-weight cotton batting and the binding is hand-stitched. I have added some special pins that mean something to me . . . and just this morning did a re-arrange and added a couple more. The finished name tag measures roughly 6 x 9 inches.

    it's best not to try to put it out with gasoline.

            Sandy - that's really cool! I love all the added pins and also the background. You are so clever!

            If you're ever inclined to make one that says TRISH on it, just let me know!

            Hugs,

                    I don't have your name tag done, either . . .

                        So cute--so clever--so adorable---so big! That seems like a big name tag to wear to meetings, but then I guess all will see it and you can save your quarters for MSQC precuts! SuzyQue

                          You did a great job... what a wonderful idea!
                          You know you've had too much coffee when you can thread a sewing machine while it's running.
