I've been putting off tracing some new designs for the last couple of weeks because I don't have a lightbox for tracing. I had so much to trace that I couldn't stand the thought of standing by my window tracing... praying that the paper or the fabric wouldn't slip or shift. Then it occured to me this morning, all I need is a glass tabletop and some light. I have that! Outside on my deck... So this afternoon I got all of my tracing done for some of my new pattern ideas...

| My fabric squares are cut and ready to be traced... |

| I am so thrilled that I didn't have to have a lamp shining under my table. The natural sunlight was enough to show my design through the fabric. |

| Tracing..... |
 |
| Yeah! All done tracing!!! Here's a sneak peek at one of my new designs... |
 |
| Wilson is sitting at my feet, melting. My poor poochie-poo. I let my loyal puppy inside to enjoy the air conditioning. He needs a haircut sooooo badly! |
 |
| I stayed outside and enjoyed my view as I worked on my tracing. Now off to start to embroider my designs. |
You don't need a lightbox in the summertime if you have a glass topped table!
Happy quilting!
Very clever!
