Woohoo! My copy of Quilting Arts magazine finally made it across the Atlantic, as did this beautiful fabric postcard in yummy orange tones from Emily H. in MN, USA. Oh, happy day, quilty goodness in my mailbox!! I've been wondering when my magazine was going to show up. And hmm, what's this? Dyed silk cocoons for embellishing?? Now where the hell am I gonna find those here in France?! Maybe I can order some from Quiltzauberei in Germany... Anyway, these little silk pods just may have some interesting possibilities. It looks like beads and things can be added to them. (PS: the flannel quilt hiding under the magazine and card is my blankey and my son's tv watching quilt)

this company here in the uk has the silk cocoons if you wanted to get them .. they are around
Good luck and have fun with them
