Recent Projects

When life gets busy it is hard to find extra time for sewing and quilting projects. I tend to focus then on smaller projects so I can still get my “sewing fix”.
 
Here are a few projects that I’ve been working on over the last few months.
 
Velvet Ribbon Pillow
I got the inspiration for this pillow from a basket weave suede pillow I saw at Pottery Barn. I chose velvet ribbon to keep the cost down and since this was around Christmas I picked a rich red color.

Finished size: 16 x 13 inches
 
Quilt-As-You-Go Mini Tote Bags
I made a few more of these adorable little tote bags I made a couple years ago. All of them sold on Etsy, so I decided to make another round. It is a scrap buster project and I am always amazed at the end product. It is a fun little bag to make.

Finished size: sizes vary slightly, but approx 6.5 x 10 inches
 
Buntings & Banners
I’ve been working on a few patterns for a Scalloped Bunting, a Mini Scalloped Bunting and a Pendant Banner. It’s easy to make your own bunting and show off your sewing skills at the same time. Make it for your next birthday party, holiday celebration or use it to decorate your craft space, nursery or child’s room. The sky's the limit!
 
These are now available as PDF patterns in my Etsy shop.

Last but not least, I am working on a Picnic Quilt pattern, but I will leave that for my next blog post. Happy sewing!
