Best of 2012–Quilts, bags and more

You might be sick of these “Best Of” posts but I need to do one more with the quilting type projects.  A selfish reason really, I like looking back and reminiscing.
1.  Chris and Erin's quilt

2.  Pillow for a swap – I designed the layout and just love how the colors and pattern turned out.  It was hard to part with this one.

3.  String Quilt – love this after it was completed, it took for-e-ver to make

4. My all time favorite large bag Amy Butler's Weekender Bag – made it twice this year


5.   The Alice Book bag – Easy purse to sew, put very popular with the 16 to 20-somethings I know.  It is quick and easy – here is pictures of 5 of the 7 I have made




6.  Kimi Rose Purse – talk about visual effect.  My girls use this almost everyday, it can pack some stuff!


7.  Red and aqua quilt for Kaitlyn – it just screams “fun”

8.  Sunspot quilt – I love the white background setting off the bright colors even more.


9.  Christmas quilt – like it but most importantly it is DONE!

10,Evelyn Bag – the most detailed oriented bag I have made.  It does make it look so RTW.

Then I finish off the list with two bags from my own pattern line
11. Rose -A Messenger bag

12.  Daisy- my second pattern

So that is it, my three “Best of” posts, now I better head to my sewing room and start working on the 2013 projects!

Happy New Year!

  2. Do you ever sleep, Lori? The collection of bags and quilts is more than most of us can sew in one year, but you also have a collection of clothes for you AND for your children!
    Beautiful collection - cheerful and lovely. Happy New Year :)

    You have made so many wonderful things this year. Your family is lucky to have such a wonderful mom to sew so much for them.
