Purses

I took my camera to my friend's quilt shop today. Recently, I had made several things and forgot to take pictures. About 18 years ago, I was a big quilter and was active in a quilt guild. A few years later, I had twins and started sewing clothing for them and then clothing for me. Quilting was forgotten, until my friend opened her store. I needed a new quilt for the great room, one that wasn't threadbare and would match the colors of the room. I was at the quilt shop and saw this pattern and had to make this quilt. Currently, the quilt is on display at the shop but I will bring it home in a month, bind it and put it to use.








I am teaching this class, the pattern is a Jelly Roll bag and it is pretty cute. Meredith made one the first of the week and I am so impressed how nicely she sews. She wants to take the Anna tunic class in July. I am so excited she likes to sew and now wants to make a garment.



Cheryl from Australia wanted some of the PRR fabric I listed on my blog a while back. I sent fabric, Cheryl sent me magazines and patterns. One of the patterns, is a Melly and Me design was made into this bag:



Thanks, Cheryl, I am so enjoying all my goodies.

Next, another bag from a charm pack




Do you see the dress in the upper left corner? I taught that class this past Tuesday with 5 women. It was such a fun class and the little sundresses turned out darling.

Then I finished the second custom order. This is the fourth time I have used this fabric, three custom bags and the above bag. I hope the next order wants some different fabric!!




So not much garment sewing, but I have been sewing.
