Connecting Threads

Connecting Threads asked me to do this project in flannel. OK -- I don't work with flannel that much. However it worked up nice and easy. the project is called "Stuffed Cubbies" This would make a cute I spy or hunt and seek quilt. You could put a lot of fun prints in this quilt. :o}



This is the catalog picture. this was a group effort I made the top and then off to the long arm and then they have someone who likes to do bindings.



Hope you have a great day.

Smile

In December I made a pillow for my favorite chair. I liked it so much I decided to take that cover off (put a zipper in the back) and make a cover that would work through the year. I inherited a book from a friend called "If Quilts Could Talk" by Whimsicals -- Terri Degenkolb (I've been to Terri's blog many times) anyway in her book she made a small project called "Big Smile". A wall hanging or table quilt the measures about 12" x 23". Almost the size I need for my pillow form. (12"x22") I cut the back ground piece down by an inch and then put it all together.








Now my chair looks like a happy spot. nice..:o}


Hope you have a great day.

zippy bags

I like to have different bags to use for the occasion. I decided to try making a small bag that I can use for everyday. So the search began for just the right pattern. I found one and made it up. But when it was done it went into the donation bag. (just didn't like the results) Then I came across the pattern Zippy Strippy by Atkinson Designs. I like the Atkinson pattern line the patterns are great and more important I like the results.

Now if you have this pattern or have made this pattern you know that my bags are a little different then the original design. I wanted a bag that was a little more square and it needed a handle. So with a few changes I have a bag that's just right. I made 2 one to keep and one to give away.

Hope you have a great day. :o}

Ferdie

I took this pic a few months ago. I guess I wasn't paying enough attention to Ferdie because he got as close as he could without sitting on the quilt.

Hope you have a great day.

Pillow project

A few weeks ago I stopped over at Carrie's blog I like to check in on Rosie. (I have a soft spot for dogs and cats featured on different blogs) any way Carrie had just posted a cute project for a pillow. I have the prefect chair for this pillow. So I went home and started working on it.


I used Christmas fabric for this one and I just happened to have a border print left from another project. :o} also I put a zipper in the back so I can use the same pillow form over and over.



This is one of my favorite chairs. This is where I sit and do my hand work. And the pillow is just the right size for this chair.


Hope you have a great week.
