Remember when I was talking about Japanese Kanzashi fabric flowers and had a link about how to make them?

Great minds think alike. Peggi was already making them for her latest Day of the Dead sugar skull piece.

Here are the three designs in the series unstitched, just so you can see what adding the flowers adds to the design. Nice job, Peggi!

Well, this isn't an official holiday but I found new scissors fobs for sale everywhere this week, so I am announcing that today is the day to add fobs to your collection. If, like me, you don't like to use scissors fobs*, then pick up your favorite to use as a zipper pull on that fabulous project bag you just couldn't resist last year. BeStitched has a nice selection of owl fobs from Barbara Elmore to celebrate fall and Halloween.

Needle Works is having a Fern Ridge Collection trunk show (fifteen percent off). These are scissor fob kits and look to be very light weight. Love the mermaid!

Of course the ultimate in Halloween Bling fobs is from Ruth Schmuff, who has some amazing Boo! fobs for sale. (Don't miss the Hello Kitty one, either.)

*Personally I find scissor fobs heavy, always in the way when I'm cutting, and I never go anywhere so I don't need to know which pair of scissors is mine. Here in CH, they ALL are! LOL That doesn't mean I don't want some of these fobs Just Because....
UPDATE: More scissor fobs!
