FUSION QUILT - Free Pattern (see below)
My BFF Gayle is a quilter and wanted to do a 'buddy' project that consisted both her love of quilting and my passion of crochet. She found a wonderful design by Tiffany of Fannylou Designs - the 'High Tea Quilt' was a fun and wonderful experience.
I've never quilted before so this was a great easy introduction to a basic quilting for me. After the winding through a maze of hundreds of fabrics I finally found a charm pack that was truly charming (lol). I also decided that a wall hanging would be enough of a challenge for me to start. After a I finally got all of my squares sewn and the blanket stitching done - I was ready to crochet the edges.
Because I'm using the quilt as a wall hanging I decided to use thread for the crochet borders. It provided a smooth glossy finish and a tighter designed edge. I chose Aunt Lydia's #3 thread because it is a heavy enough gauge to frame the work and show off the stitch design I had in mind. The finished product surpassed my expectations - I loved how it turned out.
After sharing photos on FB everyone was interested in the edge design - SO - I have written down the pattern and want to share it with all of the 'Threadies' out there! (If your friends want the pattern --Please give them my web page address and let them download themselves.)

Infinity Stars Scarf
This pattern came to me recently on a 'snow weekend'. A chance to work up something quick and de-stash. It took about 3 hours all together to work this up. I used 2 brands of yarn but both were 'Bulky' #6 weight.
You can work it up shorter or longer depending on how many times you want to wrap it. The stitch count works in even numbers - for each 2 stitches you add (or subtract) 2.5" of finished work.
Click the link below for the FREE pattern. Show me what colors you made it in; find me on Ravelry as 'CoziCrafts'.
Thanks y'all - happy stitching!
