So, the person who I had originally picked has gotten back to me, and they have respectfully declined, so that means I am re-drawing! So on Friday I will once again pick a new person to take home one of my gorgeous quilts! If picked, just tell me 2 to 3 colors and I’ll make you a modern throw quilt and all will be well! I’m excited!
This one is really directed at all of my fellow quilters and crafters out there. How do YOU price your quilts? I’ve heard a lot of different things from a lot of different people, but I’m kind of in this boat right now, where my prices were cheaper, but as I get busier I have to start raising them. How should I do it? What should I take into account? Any tips or advice would be super helpful!
Especially These 2 quilts. The one with the blue frame took about a total of 10 hours and 50 dollars worth of supplies, and the one with the black border took about 15 to 20 hours and about 60 dollars worth of supplies.
I did it! I did it! This was a perfect filler project while I’m waiting on the Viking’s Fabric I ordered. It should hopefully be here by Tuesday, so then I can finish that quilt top and quilt it. I might end up quilting this one tomorrow, but I do have to go to work, so it just depends on how late I work, and how tired I am. I’m still waiting to hear back on a new job that would be more of a set schedule which would be very nice, but it would be more of a time commitment. So, more money means more fabric! Yay! A little less quilting, but hey, I’ll take what I can get. I am really excited. Since the Pattern is up on Etsy, I think I might put this up there too. We’ll see. Someone seams to be mildly interested in buying it, so we’ll just have to wait and see.
Okay, so here is the deal. I love my part time job, and I find the coolest things there. I mean, I got my singer sewing machine, which is amazing. I always piece on it! It’s super nice and heavy, and it is quite, and it sews through anything! It’s one of the best things ever, and I wouldn’t have gotten it if I didn’t work for the auction house doing estate sales. My boss is cool, and my hours are flexible, but I don’t work as often as I would like, and I never really know when I am going to work until a few days beforehand, and sometimes it is still a last minute call. I did an interview at a local gym, and it looks promising, but it is going to be 30 to 40 hours a week. Continue reading
That’s right! I put the Final Fantasy Quilt pattern on Etsy! Click Here!
You too can make this gorgeous quilt. The Pattern includes sizes for 12″ by 14″, 24″ by 28″, 35″ by 42″, and 46″ by 56″
Hope you guys like it!
I did it! all 4 blocks are done, and I’m just in love with the way it turned out! I cannot wait to quilt it! I think it looks so pretty! I’m just debating on whether or not to use sashing or just do a border around the entire quilt. I was thinking bright blue? Or maybe black? Or grey? Hmmm….
Here it is! I’m just so damn excited! I’m going to be posting pictures of the four blocks together later. I just have to go and finish cleaning my kitchen first. Fried chicken and then roast beef sandwiches… It’s a little bit of a mess. Tacos tonight… so maybe I should wait until tomorrow to clean it??? 🙂
I ended up falling asleep around midnight, so I did not finish it last night, but I will finish it today! I ended up going with the gold eyes and hands. I love it! The background makes it look like it is snowing! What do you guys think?
I’ve started cutting and laying out the fabric for the final block. I decided to go with a drak red tonal for the cloak, and then blue for the hat. I just cannot decide on green or gold for the eyes. What do you think?
I wanted to share some fun for everyone to have this weekend! Here are some of my sassy E Cards!
