Swoon Quilt.....DONE !

 

I began working on this quilt last April...

Today I stitched the binding in place

and put it right on our bed !

It will feel wonderful to sleep under

this quilt tonight...

It measures 92 x 92 inches

and fits nicely on our queen size bed...

The name of the quilt pattern is....Swoon

Close-Up View of machine quilting...

I worked on it once a month with my

local quilt group...

We all finished our own quilts together.

It's always a great feeling of completion

to sleep under a handmade quilt.

Yes, I have already started the next one !

Black Eyed Susan Quilt...

 This is my Wednesday Quilt Project

Black Eyed Susan

I meet up with my local quilt group

every Wednesday and this is my newest project...

I am working on a design board

so I can see my block vertically while

I am piecing it...

Black Eyed Suzies have always been

a favorite of mine...

These flowers are quite large...

16 flower blocks makes a lap quilt

I am having great FUN !

Rodeo Dreams...

Rodeo Dreams.....Quilt Panel 

This was gifted to me last year...

It's time to put it up on the design wall

and see what shakes out...

I made some strip units in red and white

and sub-cut them and made a checker board...

I placed them around the edge as a possible

border treatment...

I paper pieced a few star blocks...

I like the denim fabric behind the stars...

This is what I have so far.

I plan to make a few cattle brand blocks,

including our brand...

This is the view this morning out our window...

the elk are sharing the pasture with our cows.

Baby calves are due in March.

More to Come !

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...

I bought a Kam Snap starter kit

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...

You can find the Kam Snaps Kits HERE

You can find the FREE wallet pattern HERE

Go make some !
