Appliqueing For Dummies and the world's Smallest Quilting

I hate that Every time I go Looking for Blogs about appliqueing or Quilting they assume I know what they are talking about like my grandmother sat me down and that we had this amazing heart to heart one sunday after noon about the joys of quilting and there must have been this book that everyone who quilts got and I obviously  Didn't have the book because there are quilters and there are Non Quilters and soo I'm going to tell you about what I learn As I go along and it will be Quilting for the semi-slow to Moderately Brain Damaged.

The First Thing I did and I didn't take Pictures of Me appliqueing was Me making a Burp Cloth For Julia

I printed off the letters and I appliqued them with Heat and BOND nothing else simple Heat and Bond I didn't even go back with a Embroidery Floss My friend asked me how I did this soo I decided to make a Itty bitty tutorial.

You needs some
Fabric this is just scraps
Iron
Scissors
Heat N Bond

Iron With the Pretty Side Up and I prefer to Cut the shape out after wards cause if you cute the shape First then Would you believe that paper will stick to your Iron where there is no fabric between the iron and the heat source Just figured I would share this with the class 

 Because I can't hold a Camera and cut out a Shape What you missed I cut the shape into a heart Sure simple I did not use a template So no judging my work. I still think its Nice I tried

Because Im kind and Have a since of Humor Instead of showing you that I'm perfect I'll show you Im totally Flawed and My machine is NEW!!! and I really haven't played with it >.< But now instead of thinking I can't do that you can now Think I know I can do better then that girl. I hope your now filled with Encouragement

100 Wish Quilt for Baby

1.Find a good quality, 100% cotton piece of cloth.  It can have special meaning or simply be a pattern that you like.

2.Pre-wash the fabric in the washer with cold water.

3.Cut into a square, at least 8x8 inches.  This is the square that will go on the quilt.

4.On stationary or card stock, write a blessing, wish, prayer, note, or verse for Julia.  Don’t forget to include your name!

5.Cut a piece of your fabric and attach it to the wish so that Julia will someday be able to match the wish with the fabric on her quilt.

6.Send it to us!  If you need our address or more info, email us at artistically_blonde@yahoo.com

How to make water bottle labels!!! (using Paint)

Okay for this project you are going to need

Water bottles
Scanner
Printer
Scissors
Tape
glue

Step # 1 REMOVE the label from the water bottle you then need to scan this into the computer!!
I used Deer Park water

Step #2 create a label side by side next to the OLD label
I continued to use the Kawaii Bumble Bee With the Honey Comb design

Step #3 Print your Label for size be reminded DO NOT LET YOUR COMPUTER RESIZE IT make it print 100 % you have to make it do that because it kept wanting to size it too fit !! and I cannot tell you how annoying that was don't be upset if you mess it up the first , second , possibly 3rd time if your boyfriend /hubby is handy you can make him help.

Step #4 Cut your labels out be sure to leave a little tail of white soo you have something to attach I used tape to attach the white tale to the bottle I would then Glue the labels Onto the white tab

Viola Special water bottles Total Cost for this project was $4 dollars for the water bottles
