Just when I thought all the birthday surprises were over, yesterday I received a package from Australia. It was from my blogger friend, Helen, at Aunty Henny’s. Inside the package was a beautiful card and a fabric cover for notebooks called a List-Taker. Unfolded, there was a gorgeous pen and spaces for notepads. Included was a description of the “Quilted Note-Taker” and a sample of a notebook that would fit perfectly (5×8 inches). Did you ever see such amazing fabric?
Note the tiny scottie button.
I’ve been the happy recipient of Helen’s projects before and she always includes a link to the pattern.

Patterns are super-easy to order here by e-mail, to pay by PayPal and then to receive the 4-page PDF file to download within minutes ($8.00). I ordered the pattern, thinking these would make good Christmas gifts.
Check out Helen’s blog for her chats about what she’s quilting along with some great tips and links.
That is SO cool! It even has a Scottie!
