As I was having my morning coffee, being inspired by my coffee mug...:whacky:, I was thinking, what do I own (or save) becuase I'm a quilter, but is not directly related to quilting (or sewing)?

- a set of 4 coffee mugs with pix of quilts

- hair clips

- sand paper

- used dryer sheets





ok, how about you?

Could be, sometimes the weirdest things give you an idea for a quilt or whatever.

I have loads of color books, design books (ie Dover press type),
iron-on embroidery patterns. (never used for embroidery)

Laurel Burch mugs, (made in the 80's BEFORE she started doing animals) they're floral.

Photo's my husband takes....(camera geek ya know..):bg:

Old t-shirt front's that have great designs, the t-shirts no longer wearable, but I just knew, given enough time that I would have a system that would enable me to duplicate the picture some day.
(and now that day is here.....yay !!! )
