Att mustascher är i ropet i inrednings- och pysselvärlden är inget nytt under solen. Jag kan inte heller säga att jag är först med att måla mustascher på ägg. Men det spelar ingen roll – det är värt att upprepas.

Happy Zombie

I’m not sure who started it, but I know for me it was because Katy , Megan and Brenda lit a fire under my butt with their #scappytripalong on Instagram (I’m pretty sure they’re behind all the madness/scrappy crack). I was just minding my business, getting my daily fix o’ pix on my Instagram feed - and the next thing I know I’m up to my eyeballs in 2½” squares. It’s so funny to go back in time only a few weeks to read Megan’s blog post , where she mentions about 8 other people making the scrappytripalong. HAHA… It’s more like 800 people now making (or have made) one! The Flickr group has almost 800 members, and the #scrappytripalong hashtag on Instagram has almost 3000 photos.

Fabric Folding This is the fabric folding method I used in my re-do (BTW, not quite yet a re-DONE… but I’m getting there!). Anyhoo… I’m not sure if this is the exact way Lois Hallock does it (I have her book … I guess it’s time I read the words instead of just looking at the pictures!). This is how I learned it from my friend Karen when we folded her fabric in her new studio (and Karen learned it from Lois). So here’s what I do: 1) Place folded yardage with selvedge to your left, the fold to your right. http://thehappyzombie.com/blog/?p=124#
http://www.sugarbeecrafts.com/2010/05/thread-rack-tutorial.html# I used to have a thread spool holder that I bought at an estate sale - it was small and didn't hold all that I wanted/needed it to. I looked into buying a holder, but you know how "thrify" I am - I didn't want to waste valueable crafting funds on a boring thread holder. And then I saw some pegboard at a garage sale and found my solution - make one! So here we go - a quick tutorial on how to make a thread spool holder - in case you need one, too. First, gather your supplies:
