Tote !

I finally got around to making my first tote. It took me 2 days but I think next time it will only take a few hours. I can't wait to go shopping for fabric to make different patterns! My big one will be a BRIDE tote to use the days we are on our wedding trip.

Quilted cosmetic bag

For years I have been intimidated by making purses and bags. However what intimidated me even more was zippers. Yesterday I conquered both fears. Here is a quilted cosmetic bag I made. Today I will start on a charm pack party tote I can't wait :)

UFO finished and used in sewing room

I had one top unfinished. This weekend I decided to finish it as a lap quilt for my sewing room. It is by far not my favorite but it will do until I can make myself a new one.

Grandma's comfort

I gave been real busy in my sewing room. I decided to make my grandmother a comfort quilt since she is in a lot of pain and going thru deciding if she will seek treatment for her condition or just live whatever life she has left. Anyhow , I wish I could be with her but I can't so I made her this quilt to surround her in love. Hopefully it helps just a little bit.

Spring Purse

I just finished my first purse. I learned a few things and the next will be more stable but here it is. I love the colors :)

My friend Brooke and I have also been talking about making spring/ summer purses. I picked up this pattern to make our purses.



I got awesome prices too. one pattern and 5.5 yards of quilt fabric for $50.00. I'll take that anyday. FYI the fabric for the disappearing four patch quilt is for a thank you quilt for my mom. I will give it to her at the rehersal dinner for our wedding to thank her for all her support all these years.

extension table

I have been sewing on and off but my big news this weekend was.... Josh and my friend Matt built me an extension table for my Bernia.







I also did some unexpected fabric shopping at Walmart. My Walmart had some fabric .75 to 1.50 a yard. I picked up 7 yards....
