So cute!!! I love it! You are very creative!! Your friend is going to be so pleased.
Now show us your fabric for the new pieced quilt. I wanna see...
Speaking of scissors, I was at Wal-Mart tonight and saw the Microtip Fiskars. Duh!! I didn't even think to look there since our Wal-Mart usually has next to nothing like that. Oh, well, the ones on ebay were only a little bit more with shipping. They came the other day and I think they will work well for the ragging (keeping fingers crossed). They seemed pretty sharp when I tried snipping with the tips.
