Hello, Quilters! It’s Carolyn Wainscott back with a traditional quilt setting that can be used in so many ways from scrappy to elegant. This vintage looking doll fabric is one I have been reluctant to cut into. Can anyone out there relate? It has been in my stash for several years but “My Vintage Dolly […]
It’s hard to believe I designed the original Double Ring Wedding Quilt almost 20 years ago for my brother and sister-in-law’s 50th wedding anniversary. It was a queen size whole cloth quilt. When Seams And Scissors’ editor asked me for a wedding quilt I decreased the size down to 14 1/2″ to be more usable […]
Hello, All-Carolyn from Carolyn’s Canvas here with one of my latest lightbulb flashes: What about making a comfy baby quilt using flannel tubes like we used to make those woven potholders? That would be so simple and quick and easy and cute and warm and, and and. Yep! And…… Joann’s is having a super, duper sale […]

My sister-in-law, Sandy, wanted a red, white and blue wreath, so being the good sister-in-law that I am and being that it was her birthday and being that it just so happens I had some patriotic prints in my stash-I ran to Joann’s with my 50% off coupon for the wire wreath base and found […]
Hey, everyone, it’s Carolyn again of Carolyn’s Canvas with my new tote that I’m so very pleased with. Just a couple of weeks ago I had been scouting around for a basket/box/plastic container to have on the front seat of my car to keep cold drinks and other things in but hadn’t found anything I […]
Hello again, everyone. Carolyn here from Carolyn’s Canvas to share my new, bright, shiny casserole carrier with you. When I saw Fairfield’s gold Aluminor I knew almost instantly what it would be used for-a casserole carrier. The one I have has seen its better days, has been to many church suppers, family dinners and picnics. […]
