I was so thrilled at this great find that I got it all set up, then decided where I wanted to keep it, which meant clearing out a spot with a pile of misc. stuff all sitting on a broken basket. So I started clearing out the basket and found, among other things, a shop sample that was not finished! I made myself finish putting all the other stuff away, then got busy this afternoon and made this cute little quilt.
It is from the Take 5 Goes to Charm School Pattern using Look and Learn fabrics from American Jane. I quilted it with C&C Gumball variegated thread in a Meander Pattern. Then I used a bias binding with tape measures on it - such a cute finish!![](https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEguXdtxolY57237hTRMlAsds8RpPGwTL-5-ON1vmTPbP6rk2RIzcfk1_JHDeTTFidL7KDn7RWdP_MQpP5QhNtuRAEGWzqSMWWEXnNU1hY7LBVaiBP1jLl1t5taWIF6ChwgNO1jj/s400-rw/100_5932.JPG)

Fun Find of the Day
I found something fabulous yesterday while I was browsing in Bi-Mart. I've been thinking of making a client file for my alteration business so I can better keep track of things. I was looking at the envelope files, but thought they were a little expensive for being just a plain brown, nothing fancy organization tool. Then, I spotted this lovely sage green faux suede box with a lid! All ready for hanging folders to go in.
For only $5.99! Add another $7.00 for the hanging folders and I am all set for only a little more cash than that ho-hum folder!
As excited as I get about these things you would think I would be a lot more organized than I am. Now I just have to be faithful about keeping my files up. I have piles of stuff here and there that I'll be able to store away now, though!![](https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhM8M7MeLWdhmJy76Nm5B3ZSdb_bEEixZBx64L4W6tLuc3jgIvF9rLcDanaLCUeK0FiTp09uk2sL2Q_z9HcoDphH9PFiwcpqB_fQ5JbbjcY0sq1Hxs8OAisBRp2cFyYXGcUWtCM/s400-rw/100_5921.JPG)
