Thanks for posting a Tutorial

The instructions for business card holders was shared on Stitchmap (see side button). A fellow member found them here at The Crafty Cupboard. Thanks Melanie! The internet has opened the world of crazy quilting to me and I love it!! I have found so many sharing sites. I have visited Kathy here many times. On the CQ4Newies group we are doing an Underwater or Under the Sea (UTS) Round Robin. I remembered Kathy posting about UTS. Her post taught me the needle weaving leaves or fronds in pea green. Thanks Kathy! The cup cake pincushion was another Stitchmap project. I really layered on the icing! The tutorial was posted on Buzzing and Bumbling. Linda shares several other good tutorials. Thanks Linda! These small pincushions were talked about on CQI but I don't remember any particular website. I think there's a flickr site for these. They are made from soft drink 2 liter caps and the cap from a spray starch. Almost like potato chips... you can't make just one!! I have swapped several mug rugs and have enjoyed making them. There are several sites that offer instructions.
