Nature Boy Quilt...

 

I challenged myself to gather up fabrics 

only from the cupboard 

and make a quilt...



This quilt is for a friend 

who loves to fish and camp...





These are leftover fabrics from previous quilts

made years and years ago...





It was FUN to get these vintage fabrics out

and stitch them into a new quilt...





Elk, Fish, Moose...





It took one day to put the quilt top together...





It took one more day to machine quilt it...





It took the third day to bind & label it...





Done !

Back side...





It was FUN to paw around in the fabric cupboard

and use up these wildlife fabrics.

I drive the feed wagon

while the Cowboy flakes the hay off the back...





The cattle follow the piles of hay

falling off the back of the truck...



This is Little Goldie...


She has a brand new calf...





It is very dark brown now,

but in a few weeks it will be golden

just like its' mama...





We are a month into calving and there

Tote Bag...


This tote bag is cut out and ready to stitch... 


I pawed through the fabric cupboard and found 

one of my hand dyes to line the bag...





This Pellon Flex-Foam 2-Sided Fusible

creates a bag that is sturdy and stands up...






The bag is done and is ready for handles...

I like the way these faux leather handles

look and feel in my hand when carrying the bag.





Rivets make short work of attaching the handles...





Always FUN to get the hand dyes out and

give them new life...





The tote bag panel came with a pocket...FUN !





This will make a great new bag for....SPRING !
