MONKEY BUTTONS WORKSHOP

The above workshop last Thursday was really good. Amanda is a very good tutor and she does a whole lot more than just bags. It would be nice to get her back at a later date to do one of her quick quilts, she has designed several using Jelly Rolls, have a look at her website.

I have spent years of frustration trying to find a good way of marking quilts ready for quilting. Well here is the solution....(I got it from Amanda at Monkey Buttons). It is made by Clover and is described as a CHACO LINER PEN STYLE. Mine is bright yellow but I gather you can get it in other colours and is just brushes off when you have finished. It is like a tiny wheel and is filled with powdered ink, you can get refills. I'm sure some of you already know about it but it's new to me.
