Finsihed The Purple Clutch

I did it! My first major non-quilting item! There are a few places that need improvement, but over all I am quite happy with it! I’, also doing one with some Americana fabric. I think it will turn out equally as cute! On that one, I will be doing velcro instead of buttons, but I’ll probably throw one on for decoration anyways! I’m so excited to teach a class on this at work!

Working On My Next Crazy Quilt

Since I liked the last Crazy Quilt so much, I decided to do another one. This one will be shades of grey and black, and then all of the thread is going to be shades of red. I’ll also be teaching a class on this at the shop soon, so I better hurry up and make it! Now that I bought a new machine, I can do the decorative stitches at home, so I should be pretty far along by Monday morning. We shall see! Wish me luck!

Working On A Clutch

Since I’ll be teaching a class on this at the store, I figured I would make a couple of them at home first. I still have to make the bag this wallet goes in, and then make at least one more. I’ll be doing the class the 4th Wednesday in April, so I have some time to perfect it, but I need samples for both the stores by Monday, so wish me luck this weekend! I have quite a bit to do!

Spring Table Runner Finished

I’m just in love with this quilted table runner! I did all of the embroidery and applique on the Designer Diamond Royale. The applique tool is one of the new features, and I am in love with it. Next I am going to do a star themed one for 4th of July and Memorial day. I’m just so excited! Also, I’m going to be teaching a crazy quilt class soon! I’m just so excited for all of the things to come!

Working On Another Table Runner

I started work on a spring themed table runner at work. I really like the bright colors. If only it would stop snowing here in the Midwest, it might actually feel like spring. I’m doing the circles again, it reminds me of blowing bubbles when the weather is nice on a picnic. What kind of table runner should I do next? I really need to get a Designer Diamond Royale so I can do this at home!

Finsihed The Mario Throw Quilt

I did it! I finished the Mario themed throw quilt. Now I have to go and buy the fabric to make a Mario themed twin size quilt with a pillow sham. I’m so excited! I’m also buying a new machine soon, so I cannot wait to get started! I have to make a fabric run later today! I’m so excited to get back into sewing! The next one will include Luigi and the Red Mushroom! I cannot wait!

Finished The Table Runner

I finished the quilting on this beautiful table runner! I cannot wait to hang it at the store on Tuesday. I have Monday off, so hopefully I’ll get a little bit more quilting done soon! I just love this applique. I think I’m going to do one that is Solar System oriented next. I really like it Or, I can do something spring themed, and use the circles for flowers and flower pedals. We’ll see!
