Opinions needed please!

Ok, So I am trying to tidy things up and take up less space with all the boxes filled with projects. I bought a dresser that has SIX! whole drawers that i can put my projects in. My question is, can i put them in zip lock bags and not seal them up or should I just fold them all together and not put them in the bags? Someone told gram that it's not good to put fabric in a bag that it needs to "breathe". So please tell me what you guys think... I am not sure what to do now. But I do know I need to put things in the drawers so I can have more floor space back! :-)

Gram's Wall hanging

Gram did this wall hanging for the lady that we saw in Nebraska. She saw it when we went into one of the shops she took us to in Nebraska. This is the front side.This is the back side and the label I made for gram. She got a lighthouse stamp and then a stamp with a saying about giving love away. Can't remember it right now.

Another Christmas Present Finish but a Little Late


These are the two bags that I made for my friend Tracy for Xmas. One's a little bigger then the other and then I changed the colors around on each. She loved them. :-)

Gram's Xmas Present


The week before xmas one of the quilting magazines came in and there was a pattern in it that I saw and it just said gram on it. I had to go to Murray's to get gram a giftcard for my brother to give to her I decided that is what I would get her for xmas.
The top photo is what it looks like on a bed.


This is what the whole quilt looks like I think its going to go together really quickly. But we will see it! It could be wrong and this could be a hard one because I thought it was so easy.



And these are the lovely colors that Adele and I picked out for the quilt. The bottom fabric is a cheater fabric for boarders! :-) Gotta love when you can cheat!

SSS Luncheon

Today we had our SSS Luncheon. We went to the Marsh Side Restaurant and then we did a Yankee Gift Swap! Kathy was the first one to open a gift!

Here is Lynn with here Swap Gift and wearing her "Halo"!

Lynn swapped for Barbara's gift and even gave her the Halo!
This was my gift! I got a folder full of fun stuff. It was wrapped in fabric, then it had a pigment pen, some white fabric, and directions on how to make labels! I will have fun experimenting with this once Lynn is done with Gram's light box! :-)

Krissy's Quilt

This quilt I am making for my friends wedding. She has always loved horses so when I decided to make her a quilt for her wedding I knew it had to have horses on it. I found the fabrics for the quilt but didn't know what pattern I was going to use so when one of the quilting magazine's came and I saw this pattern in different colors I knew it would work for the colors I had chosen! I really hope she likes it. I will also make two pillow cases for her and two throw pillows because I got so much horse fabric.
