It’s true, I’ve been taking a vacation from blogging, but that doesn’t mean I’ve forgotten about my blog. I’ve been busy collecting new inspirations and ideas to share with you!
Here’s a peek at one of the most exciting things I’ve been doing recently: taping some episodes for the Creative Living with Sheryl Borden Show.
I thought it would be a breeze, since I’m used to teaching quilting and crafting techniques, but there are a few significant differences between TV and the live classroom. For one, your time limit is minutes, not hours. And two, if you mess up, you have to start all over from the very beginning. But Sheryl made the taping easy and fun, so I wasn’t stressed at all. I’m so excited to share my fabric cover-button techniques in hi-def!

fun fabric appliques for card making & scrapbooking
These segments will air on Creative Living in 2011, but I’ll give you a YouTube preview soon!
Congratulations Laura, how fun! I wish we had more American TV channels here so I could watch you on TV, but YouTube works too:-)
Oh how cool, congrats Laura!!
Laura, I gasped with glee when I saw the photo of you making custom fabric “huggies” for to-go coffee cups! I saw some boring readymade versions of these at a local Caribou Coffee shop a few weeks ago and immediately decided I wanted to make some snazzier versions for myself out of my stash goodies. Do you have project directions published anywhere online or in a book, or do I need to wait for your show to air? Also, I was thinking of using some of that insulated stuff for a middle layer with my cup sleeves, the stuff that’s used in pot holders, but I don’t want to make it too puffy. No one wants a bulky diaper looking thing wrapped around her latte…
Hi Rebecca,
Thanks! I’m getting the video ready for Youtube. It should have been up Friday, but I’m having conversion problems. If all goes well it should be there sometime this week. I’ll drop you an email when they’re on Youtube. The show won’t actually air on TV until 2011.
