**Update: Our guest blogger for this week wasn’t able to do her post, so there will not be an inspiration post this week.   I apologize for any confusion.  Please keep Heather in your thoughts!

Hello week 16!

Last week you all made such well-dressed little elephants…

How cute?!

All of the modifications are so clever.  I especially love Simone’s addition of arms.   It really changes the look!

Alright, so we had 18 entries and the winner of the $15 gift certificate to the Intrepid Thread is #12, Kirsten @ Gemini Stitches.

Congratulations Kirsten and thank you so much to the Intrepid Thread!

This weeks project is the Patchwork Ribbon designed by Melody Miller (of Ruby Star fame).

I love the unexpected usefulness of this project!  I would have never dreamed up making fabric ribbon, but it is such a great idea and would really be the cherry on top of a handmade gift.

If you decide to make some patchwork ribbon  of your own, be sure to come back and enter it for a chance to win an AMAZING prize pack of Cosmo threads from Lecien.   

You may begin linking up your finished Patchwork Ribbon today through Sunday July 22nd at 11:59 pm EST for a chance to win the Cosmo thread sampler from Lecien!

Wishing you a  creative week!

This week we are making the Zip Organizer.

This is a project that will require a bit more patience, but I know you all can do it if you take your time.

Make sure to read the Errata page, this project does have some errors printed in the book.

Krista from Spotted Stone will be inspiring you this week with her zip organizer!  (actually organizers, she made 3!)

Projects that are completed and entered this week are eligible for a chance to win an amazing Cosmo thread sampler from Lecien that has over 70 different colors included!

If you’ve never used this perle cotton before, you will love it!

You may begin linking up your finished Zip Organizer today through Sunday June 10th at 11:59 pm EST for a chance to win the Cosmo thread sampler from Lecien!
