Done & Done & Dinos








My latest completions this month and counting!
It's nice to get things cleared for the next wip.



Next up will be my big boys' quilt.
That means
"DINOSAURS"!!

Dem Bones


My little chef made this his fabric of choice for his newest apron.
His favourite recipe is Banana Cream Pie.

Order Up !!

I've been sewing away on a nice size order {15} of my
drawstring jewellery pouches



My customer chose black crushed velvet/black satin linings.


Next project will be a bag with a boxed bottom and a
small velvet shopping bag.

I'm so excited to be making some serious money again!
Don't get me wrong, I enjoy creating and giving
but it drives me crazy having to ask hubby for money.

Wish me luck on this journey.

Does anyone have an inexpensive way of making "nice looking"  tags?
OR
A suggestion for an ink that would stamp well on fabric or ribbon?

Tinkerbell Tote

So last week was an absolute bust for anything creative coming out of my sewing room,
 I was in a major bummer of a state- of- mind.
I spent part of a morning tearing apart a stacked coin quilt top I'd made a couple of years ago.
It was one of those "What was I thinking" kinda quilt tops,
if you know what I mean?
{I hope I'm not the only one who has one or two of those projects!}
 Maybe it's the snow,
 or the cold { -42 this AM },
 or it could be the inability to get to a fabric shop for over 6 weeks.
 I don't know exactly

 but I think I could be coming out of my mood!

VOILA!!




  I've had this Tinkerbell fabric for sometime now,
I just couldn't come up with right idea for it until yesterday.

It's 7" high, fully lined with a heavy interfacing for stability.
