Monday update:
I made a small version of Stacy's petal pin cushion and am ready to tie a larger version. These will be for the dance hall bathroom - one for safety pins and the other for threaded needles, a few sizes of buttons, maybe some ribbons for repairs of all sorts.
I also made some little stuffed, calico, ginger-bread-kid-shaped dolls - not sure why yet - I guess the scrap projects inspired me. I used a cookie cutter to make a pattern but modified it to my liking.
For weaving class, I completed last week's homework to weave some textured patterns. This weekend we learned leno patterns - open weave, geometric lace-looks. I will do a bit more of that and then some more-solid weaving to finish off my "sampler". Other homework is to design a simple plaid and calculate the yarn yardgage needed for our "personal plaid project".

I love the gingerbread idea! I need to remember that one with Christmas coming up - I've even seen cute candy buttons on the notions wall.
You're going to have to email me a picture of your sampler - I'd love to see your weaving.

I will take pics once it's off the loom and e-mail them to you. It may take awhile. haha
