Quilters for Comfort and Hexagon Table Topper

This quilt top is in progress.  I just added the bottom row.  The first three rows are each from a different person.  A Row Quilt that will eventually be finished and presented to a verteran.  This is a project with Quilters for Comfort.  Now a Yahoo group whose members are all across the country and make quilts that are donated to different groups.  This is just one that is in progress.

 

This Hexagon Mat or Table Topper starts with a hexagon, Praire Points and borders are added.  Such a fun project.  Would make great gifts.  

No binding here....just turn and top stitch.  Have looked at this kit at Sharynn's Quilt Box in North Vernon, IN for longer than I wanted to admit.  Finally broke down and purchased it.  So much fun!

More to come later.  

Happy Weekend End!  May God Bless!

Spicy Spiral Table Runner, Grey Quilt, USA Eagle embroidery blocks.

Spicy Spiral Table Runner

Made a fast trip into a Lawrenceburg, IN quilt store:  Quilter's Garden and this is what I came out with....well, I came out with the pattern and a kit for this runner.  I have since cut off the edges and am ready to bind this unique table runner.  

I will show the second version as soon as it is finished.  :0)   Hopefully later this week.

 

 

Here is a part of Peanut's quilt that is part of her wedding gift.  A gray chevron quilt with a pinch of yellow in a border.

The first of ten blocks for a veteran's quilt.  Hope to make a rag quilt out of these embroidered jeans.

 

Bare Essentials Bag

I love the design of this bag.  It was fast to make and so very cute.  I will have to change my wallet again if I continue to carry this. 

It has a pocket on the outside and one on the inside.  Closure is a magnetic snap.  

You don't see the lining because the constrution uses headers that match the outside of the bag so if you are a bit off when sewing or pressing it is okay.  Gotta love that!

This is just one of my projects over the past week.  More to follow later.  

Cards. Snowman, Lighthouse, Henna, & phrases

Ugh Tuesday was spent doing paperwork. Then a couple fun hours with the grand kids. More paperwork and then a few minutes of fun with the Sizzix Big Shot and some new embossing folders from Darice.

(Jacquie..I have not seen a big difference in embossing between this machine and the Cuttlebug. However this machine takes up more room as it does not fold up.)

I love the Snowman. The lighthouse is nice and the floral is called Henna. They all embossed beautifully. The "hello" is also embossed. The order came in from Consumer Crafts today and I had to play a little bit with something before the day was over.

Happy Day!

Accuquilt Tumbler Quilt

Here are the tumblers I cut out of a sample set of fabrics from Northcutt Fabrics, My Asian Garden, Cherry Blossoms line. The tumblers are the 6 1/2 inch size. Besides these, I cut several 2 1/2 inch squares using the value die from Accuquilt. I had almost no waste from the fabric set. I was surprised by that.

I am about ready to sew these together but that should be easy. The corners of the tumblers have the points of the triangle cut off so I am expecting no dog ears.

Can hardly wait to see how this goes but I have been sewing nearly all day and the prudent thing for me is to stop and wait until another day. So I put it on the design wall just to see it and be ready for my next sew day.

And Kit likes this wall. While I was placing the tumblers there was a small white paw coming around to catch me.

Five and Dime from Mountain Peek Creations

My friend left this pattern at my house so I had to play.

Paris baby quilt for Glamma.

Finally finished Glamma's baby quilt for Vivian. Also finished labels for both this one and Vivian's that she gets to keep at home. Embroidery designs are from Julia's Needle. I did them in a plum/lavender on water spotted nearly black and trimmed blocks in a plum with green batik smashing and borders. Used the same black on the binding. The label was a Lilly oval with fonts added from my Janome machine. Now Glamma has two little quilts for Vivian.

And this was replaced with one with the correct date!  Just an hour and half off!  

Third bag completed last week. Spring has sprung! Well, I am trying to convince myself of that with these bags.
Loved all the ruffles. They will rag out and add more character to the bag as it is used.

Bag number two for last week. Another Fresh, Spring Bag.

Latest bag finished on Saturday! Yeah Rah. Now it is listed on Etsy.
