Winning Vote


Walk into my Parlor
By Mary Howitt

"Will you walk into my parlor?"
Said the spider to the fly:
"Tis the prettiest little parlor that you
ever did spy.
The way into my Parlor is up a
winding stair, And I have many
curious things to
show you when you are there."
"Oh No, no!" said the little fly.
"To ask me is in vain;
For who goes up your winding
stairs can never come
down again."


Awe Ha!! Says the little Witchy Hostess.....
The votes are now in and it looks like we are going to be making
Halloween totes for our next swap.
I will be taking names for those that want to play in this swap starting on
Aug 1st - Aug 21st
.
The projects need to be
received not sent to your partner no later than
Sept 25th.


The requirements in this swap:
1. One Halloween tote bag made with Halloween fabrics. Please make your bag at least a 13 X 14
2. 3 little Halloween goodies... exp candy bar, pack of gum, life savers... etc or even sewing notions.
3. 3 Halloween FT Qts and one spool matching thread.
4. One surprise gift... inexpensive!!!! I stress inexpensive!!! Exp: cookie cutter, Halloween decoration you make, old Halloween recipe book you already have... or even fun recipes on card stock. Remember inexpensive.

I would like to see those that participate to use up their fabric stashes and create something wonderful :) Embellish your bags anyway you want :) Exp: buttons, applique, crystals...etc
So ladies get your thinking caps on and lets see what you

Val anyone that sews can sign up for the swap! You don't have to be a quilter... that is just what I like to do.. besides, Annies, Aprons and anything else my little 10 times too small heart likes to do :)I have always had the desire to be a quilter.. I think I like making the blocks more than the quilts... lol Isn't that the usual way of us quilters! Tops tops tops everywhere unfinished???
So come on join up when its time.. I would love to have you :)
