Mini Design Board...

 I've seen mini design boards made on other blogs, and I thought this was a great idea! Thus I set out to make one today...

I took a piece of foam-board, a hot glue-gun, and a piece of batting cut 3 inches bigger than the board, and walla! You have a design board!!!

I took pieces for one block from my large design wall, placed them on my new mini design board...

...and carried over to my sewing machine...

Time to change to another thread color, 

and get stitching...

Perhaps this may be a helpful tool for you

in your sewing room too...

 I was too lazy to clear off my ironing-board (just don't know how it gets all piled up with things? No clue!! LOL), so I was using this little pressing tool. Not the best option when pressing quite a few seams...

Then I recalled I had bought this mini iron...way back when...and had never used it, so thought that today was a good day to try it out...

I was surprized at how hot it got, and it works pretty good...for someone that is too lazy to get out of her chair today!! LOL...

As I was sewing today, I finally saw the whole movie "Fiddler on the Roof" on the TV, from start to finish... I've only seen bits and pieces before... Now to do some research...

Happy stitching...
