Quilt In A Day: Throw Pillow Complete

I finished this throw pillow late mast night, well I guess it was technically early this morning, but whatever! I just did stitching in the ditch to make the geometry of the pillow pop! I still have to quilt the baby quilt I made for my friend’s new son! Not sure if I’ll quilt in the ditch for that, or do a stipple. I can’t wait to put a pillow form in it and throw it on my bed. First I’ve got to wash it. I feel like this is going to be my great pillow weekend. I’m going to do so many things with my weekend! I don;t go back to work until Tuesday, so I’ve got some time to complete a few UFO in my stash! Wish me luck!

Making Some Triforce Throw Pillows

I’ve decided I need some pillow shams to go with my Zelda Quilt I made a few months ago. I don’t know why I never made them sooner, but I just never got around to it. Here is one of the pieced on my sewing table. I have everything cut for the two of them, but I’m making them one at a time. Here’s to piecing it together!

Quilt In A Day: Wonky Throw Pillow

I’m just so in love with this ruler; I can’t get enough of it! I literally want to do an entire queen size quilt in it for my bed, but alas, I do not have the fabric I want in the quantities I need, and there are about 10 other projects higher up on the list! Sad Day! No, scratch that! There is never a sad day when it comes to sewing! I made myself a throw pillow since I did have some fabric left over from Ivan’s Baby Quilt. Hopefully when I get off work today I can quilt it and have it on my bed by tonight! Fingers crossed!

 

Embroidery Is Done On My Second Crazy Quilt

I did it! It took a while, but I did some work on my crazy quilt today, and I got the embroidery done, and now this weekend I can quilt it! I’m so excited! I think I might add a few buttons first! What do you guys and gals think I should add to it to make it even crazier!?
