Another week without sewing (sigh...)

   

Just because I didn't sew anything this week is no reason not to post, right?  It was a busy week including a day trip to DC for a meeting at the Pentagon which was kind of wild.  In case you're curious, there is a McDonalds and a CVS drug store (among many other interesting things) inside the Pentagon.  And I don't even mean in some ground floor public area.  They're deep into the building on the 2nd or 3rd floor.  It's a whole other world in there. 

I came across these Denyse Schmidt scrap bags here and wanted to share - what a cool idea!  These would be great for patchwork or little projects or just to use as reference before investing in some yardage.

Another super-cool find this week:  Charley Harper Cross Stitch! (via Fancy Schmancy)

 

You can see lots more here.  "Carrie," you say "I didn't know you cross stitched?"  Details, details...  Maybe I'll learn!  I've always thought cross stitch patterns were so, excuse me, country crafty if you know what I mean, so was thrilled to find these modern designs.  Am I missing out?  Are there other cool cross stitch patterns I should know about?
