What prompted me to post a comment, however, was your mention of quilt shows. My mother and I have decided to attend our first quilt show at the end of the month on Amelia Island, FL. We are combining it with a weekend spent lazing around in a bed and breakfast there. Do you attend many such shows? I am sure they are all different, but do you have any suggestions for newbies on what not to miss at a quilt show?Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8343238.post-54588803860681964222011-02-11T19:59:43.617-05:002011-02-11T19:59:43.617-05:00I also put together kits for my bag - and I love t...I also put together kits for my bag - and I love to see how other people do theirs. I have found that zippered book covers work great for my bag. They are nylon, zip on three sides and usually have an outside pocket. They are long enough to fit pens and crochet or short knitting needles, can hold my music player, cell phone and perscriptions and a small notebook and usally can fit some other goodies as needed. Since any bag or purse I buy can fit two or more paperbacks the book cover organizer fits just fine.Shelleynoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8343238.post-75208615056178867772011-02-10T15:34:17.218-05:002011-02-10T15:34:17.218-05:00Lynn, just a little FYI - the

Not a big show, but we have some very talented ladies in the Las Vegas valley. Thank you for the wonderful books!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8343238.post-21602196429613880962011-02-10T10:53:38.248-05:002011-02-10T10:53:38.248-05:00If for some reason you ever leave the book busines...If for some reason you ever leave the book business (or decide to take up another project in your life), I bet you can make a business off of cool ideas for creative people, like this kit or awesome journals or book wubbies (I still want a book wubbie). I love this blog because of all the crafty, creative things I find here.AIThttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00256420680945546328noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8343238.post-70618847274379275792011-02-10T09:53:18.818-05:002011-02-10T09:53:18.818-05:00I have a kids' pencil box that works well.

They came in a 3-pack of different sizes and I liked the first set so much I bought a second one. One of them is my purse kit--contains my hairbrush, hand sanitizer, chapstick, ibuprofen--all the little stuff that always I move from purse to purse. One is pencil-case size so its full of pens and pencils. I use two to store different sets of laptop cables. One holds just the power cord and the tether cord for my phone in case I need to use my phone as a modem and the other has the various camera, memory card reader, etc cords (because no two devices ever seem to share the same plug). <br /><br />Both pocket-packs came with a tiny pouches that fit credit cards or business cards so I can slip a pared down version of my wallet into a coat pocket. <br /><br />Sometimes I just need purse essentials in my laptop bag so that I don't have to juggle so much luggage. I like being able to move things to different bags without having to spend half an hour digging through the old one and sorting out the junk.BriteLadyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09746599921292379358noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8343238.post-66216926375083044872011-02-10T08:58:51.669-05:002011-02-10T08:58:51.669-05:00What a great idea.

It would save me loads of time that I spend searching through my bottomless purse for things. <br /><br />I was watching an auction show the other day and someone came in with a pretty necklace and pendant. When the pendant popped open, it was also a little pencil. I want one - just not Faberge like that one was. Talk about pricey. Yeouch.B.E.
