Here is a fun idea for that 4th of July backyard Bar-B-Q or tailgate party. All you need is a couple of wine glasses (I use plastic ones for outdoors), some battery operated tea-lights, and a little time in your sewing room with the new Quilt-Smart pattern for wine glass lamp shades. Whip some shades up in red, white, and blue fabric, add a little trim if you like, and you have a very simple, fun decoration for your party. Do them in white lace and you have a perfect addition for your wedding reception tables. Why not some pastel “shades” for the baby shower? These are sure to get comments – and they are fun and easy to make. Bright colors will add a magic glow to that special birthday party. Check out your local Quilt-Smart dealer (or buy them on-line if you can’t find them in a store near you) and start designing your next party.
