CQ For Newbies - Squishie Mingle
As an example, my “Squishie” for this mingle contains the following:
• 7” square of 14 ct. adia cloth;
• a generous piece of muslin;
• cotton fabrics: 1 solid, 1 batik, and 5 prints --- three of them small and two paisleys;
• satin – one of the following colors: dark purple, lilac, and a sparkly teal blue;
• my first attempt at creating a siggie – although the image is faint;
• 4 white cotton fabric pieces using stamped images created with acrylic paint and fabric medium for embroidering upon;
• 1 yd. of lace;
• 3 color coordinating full skeins of DMC floss;
• 3 bobbins of silk ribbon – two 4mm and 1 7mm:
• 1 yd. or more of perle cotton
• a small baggie filled with seed beads, pearls, crystal beads, charms, coins with holes, ribbon, silk flower and leaf, and colored buttons.

wow! You amaze me with how much you can accomplish! I love your quilt stitches, especially the fan stitch! And whoever gets your mingle will be so excited!
Your house looks so cozy and nice!
Ahh, Thank you, Sweetie. I decided at the end of last year that I was going to stop sitting and thinking about all that I desire to do and start doing them. Not that I don't have those moments of procrastination, we all do, I just try to keep pushing myself through them, doing what I can, when I can, provided the opportunity arises.
That will be a great squishie. I'm very tempted to join in, but I'm not sure I have everything I'd need, and I have no place to shop at the moment. =)
