The pencils I use on fabric are not ‘fabric’ pencils at all. Crazy, right? I love the General’s White Charcoal Pencil on medium to dark fabrics and I use Blackwing’s 602 pencil with firm graphite on light fabrics.
Click here to find the pencils and 2-Step sharpener. And don’t miss Blackwing’s excellent sharpeners and pencil caps. They make me happy :-).
In yesterday’s Time Out, I showed how I choose colors for a quilt. If you listen closely, you’ll pick up a variety of other tips that you may not have considered before. Everything I talk about is in The Quilter’s Practical Guide to Color—a book I am very proud of :-).
Next week I’m going to show you my favorite binding tricks. See you then!
Elma May is this week’s winner and she will receive a Sewing Needle Guide. Congrats, Elma May!
You might not think you need one, but you do—especially now when we are all doing so much online shopping. This guide lists the most common hand-sewing needles and what they are used for. It is very handy!
I’ll be back with another Giveaway next Wednesday. Until then you can shop for all sorts of sewing notions, books, and other fun stuff at pieceocake.com!

My boss made me work today… but I’m self-employed so I have myself to blame for that 😂. I thought you might enjoy seeing where I make videos…
I’m working on a new class that will be on Creative Spark in the spring, that will be a book in a year or so. You’re going to love it!
Rebecca Livingston makes the most amazing mugs—and she made these especially for us!
