Rainy Day Inspiration

The Pacific NW often brings  a load of liquid sunshine! We will not be let down this week!!!

A rainy day is perfect for starting a new project, stitching on that binding, labeling a completed quilt...

Here are a few patterns I have either made or am contemplating...

This book is written completely in Japanese. Although I don't understand a word of Japanese (who cares!) the pictures are so inspiring...

These are my favorite little scissors, great for clipping threads at the machine or while doing hand work...

If you've never tried printed treasures for making a label, take advantage of a rainy day and try it...

 More inspiration can be found by hopping on over to The Pine Needle to check out all the beautiful fabrics, books, quilts and notions.  You can join us this Friday, April 2 for Happy Hour from 10:00 - 12:00 where Janet Pendergrass will be teaching a class to help you construct the Bistro Apron designed by Michelle from Busy Bee Quilt Designs. Saturday, April 3, we are hosting an Easter Egg Hunt for all you quilters. The pinecones will be hiding eggs all around the store filled with candy, discounts and fabric!

We love to hear from you, leave us a comment about your rainy day inspiration!!!

*The patterns, books and notions in this post are all available at The Pine Needle
