Project Bag...


Project Bags for Quilters

 


I love this pattern !

I have made 10 of these bags and

plan to make lots more...




This is the back of the bag.

There is foam in between the fabric 

and it is quilted in a grid pattern...




The quilting shows up better on the

green lining fabric...




I have the vinyl cut for the front of the bag...




I have the zipper pieces all ready to stitch...




Just need to stitch the 

front of the bag together...





Here it is bound with the handle attached.






Quilters Project Bag

20 x 20 inches

I have made several for myself and

a few more for my friends and family.



Here is some cuteness for you:


This Baby Bull just melts my heart...




He is the grandson to my very favorite cow,

Golden Girl

  



No more sitting in front of my sewing machine...

I am saddled up to the John Deere

mowing more hay fields.


I have added lots of haying videos

to my instagram account

Mini Card Wallets...

 The holiday workshop is in full swing...



I am making Mini Card Wallets...

with SNAPS  !




I pawed through the fabric cupboards and

found lots of FUN dotty fabrics...




I am lining the wallets with

Shape Flex Fusible Stabilizer...




Shape Flex SF101

I love this interfacing...

It is so nice to work with and gives your

projects so much body with no stiffness at all.




These wallets require one piece of fabric

and one piece of stabilizer

and one snap...




I am sewing assembly line style...

The wallets are all prepped and ready

to sew together.




It just takes a few minutes to stitch

one of these cuties together...










The snaps are super simple to install...





These are FUN to stitch and

you can't stop at just one !




They are the perfect size to hold your

license, credit card & cash

when you don't want to carry a purse around.





They require such little fabric,

I found scraps in my bin

and turned them into wallets...




These will be great stocking stuffers...

Zip Cases...

Santa's Workshop is in full swing !

 


I am making zip cases...





Great gift for the guys...

Shave Cream, razors, toothbrush & paste





Perfect opportunity for pulling out

all the great wild life fabrics in the cupboard...





We have a John Deere fan in our family...

this is perfect for him





These zip cases are so roomy.

I lined them with fusible foam

to help them keep their shape...





This was a fat quarter size scrap I had leftover

from a  previous project...

it worked great for this zip case !





Just had to show you both sides of this case...

Side 1   Bear & deer





Side 2  Moose





Found a fat quarter size scrap of cupcakes...

great for a girl's make up bag 

or hair accessories.





I am pawing through the fabric cupboards

and scrap bag to find more fabrics

for more zip cases....I am on a roll !




This pattern is called:  Good Luck Pouch

You can find it at CenterStreetQuilts on Etsy

It is very well written and easy to follow

Pumpkin Placemats & Cattle...

 

Farmhouse Pumpkin Placemats



When I saw the pattern for these 

pumpkin placemats,

I had just the fabric...

I keep a few yards of black & white plaid fabric

in the cupboard for bindings...




These went together quickly...




Lots of FUN to create !




They are a gift and already out the door !

You can find the pattern here:



We have been feeding cattle for

a few weeks now...


Seems like we just baled up this hay in June...





The cows know the sound of our pick ups

and meet us at the feeding grounds...




Everybody shows up for breakfast each day...





This is sweet, little Goldie with her

calf  "cocoa puff",  the grands named him...




She is a little cow that raises

great, big steer calves !



This is Doll Face...

Oh, how I LOVE that girl !
