Fancy Dancy Block Holder Thingy

Helen has put up the next instalment of the mystery quilt so that is what I shall be working on this afternoon, (pictures later).  When reading the instructions she mentions using a Clover Sandpaper board which I don't have.  Hmm I do have some sandpaper though, bit of crafty thinking popping up here, so off I go to make my own.  Not happy with just some sandpaper on a board - I thought – heck I am a crafter I need this to look pretty LOL so grabbed some glue and got gluing.  So here is my Fancy Dancy Block Holder Thingy I made this morning to put my wee pieces on to hold them in place whilst marking the diagonal lines.  Front has the sandpaper with a pretty embellishment framing it and the back has some funky material I have with some more ribbon LOL  ahhhh much happier now……….

  4. Well done Sharon. Mine is just a piece of sandpaper on one side of a piece of board. Not nearly as funky as yours. Maybe I should dress it up a bit?
