Snowman Wall Hanging

I purchased this snowman panel at Hobby Lobby. They had this panel completed, and on display, so I couldn't resist. (I have a snowman collection) You have to purchase additional fabric for the backing, plus your batting. Included with the snowman panel is your letter cutouts for peace and joy, the cardinals, and the snowmans hat. After you cut these out, you can use heat and bond to iron them on. It give the panel a dimensional look. I then made a rod sleeve for the back so I could slip a round wooden rod through it, so I could hang it on the wall.

Colette Pinwheel Pillow

Quilts, and Pillows! Usually when I make my daughter a new quilt, she wants a matching pillow. Simple, quick project. With this pillow, I decided to hand quilt .25" along the inside of the solid white.

Fat Quarter Bucket

I've been wanting to make a fabric basket for some time now. I watched Misty (MSQC) with Me and My Sister (on YouTube) making a fat quarter bucket, so I took a little time in my day today to make one. You just need two fat quarters and some fusable stabilizer. I cut my outer fabric and lining to 20" x 13". It was a perfect size to stand up my fat quarters or bundles. Nice afternoon project! 7/28/19. (UPDATE: My daughter wanted a fabric bucket, so I made her the pink and white one. The quatrefoil print matches her lamps. I also got lucky and found more Olive's Flower Market fat quarters, so I made another one to go with my accessories in my sewing nook. 8/6/19)

"Dream Big" Wall Hanging Quilt

For months now, I have admired the Dream Big quilt panel done by so many quilters on Pinterest..I just had to jump in and give it a try. I started it over the weekend 3/30/19, and finished it today 4/3/19. I have seen some of these quilts with a butterfly, bumble bee, or a dragon fly appliqué in the center, so I am on the look out for one of those. I may go with the bumble bee, since my Mom's name was Bea. My daughter fell in love with the colors of this one (called Opal) so I made it for her to hang above her bed. (Update: On 6/12/19, my husband completed and hung up the quilt holder he made for the Dream Big wall quilt. It was simple, but perfect!)

One Fine Day “Pillow Shams” to Match

Today, 10-18-22, I spent the afternoon making two pillow shams to match my Granddaughter’s One Fine Day quilt. (For her 5th birthday in Nov, 2022) It has the envelope opening in the back, so pretty easy to make!

Cupcake Coffee Mug

I was viewing Vanessa's (Crafty Gemini) tutorial on her "Cupcake Coffee Mug" one day. At the time, my printer wasn't working to print her templates, so I decided to make my own. There is only three pieces to the cupcake: (1) the cupcake (2) the frosting on top (3) the heart cherry. Very easy instructions. Mine finished to be 11.5" wide by 7" tall. I use mine in my sewing room, when my sweet daughter brings me my favorite hot tea!

Dutch Garden "Nine Patch Swap"

After watching Jenny's tutorial on her Nine Patch Swap, I knew I wanted to make one. The only difference is, I decided to add sashing to enlarge the size of the quilt. I used the Dutch Garden collection, using a small blue print for my sashing and inner border, along with the larger yellow floral print for my outer border. Backing is a solid white on white tiny floral print. Quilting still needs to be done. I will be giving this quilt to my sister for her "60"th birthday. 5-13-17, quilting is finished!

Nine Patch with Sashing

I had some left over fabric from a layered cake that I partially used, so I decided to make a nine patch lap quilt. I added white sashing for the border. I also had some yardage of the original Scrumptious fabric, so I decided to use it for the backing. The quilting was done with a simple quilt in the ditch stitch. Binding was done in a pink blender fabric. All leftover fabric was used, while thinning out my stash! My daughter claimed it, so off it went to her room! lol (Finished it 7/1/2020)

Sundrops Mini Quilt Wallhanging

I had some half square triangles left over from my Sundrops table topper I made some time ago, so I decided to make another mini quilt, and put it on the opposite wall in my sewing nook. (just made one out of Olive's Flower Market) No more wall space left! My darling daughter purchased my black "Create" sign with her allowance. She loves to decorate my sewing space too!

The Good Life/Scrumptious Pinwheel Project

**Update: 7/21/22, I finally finished this project! (Made it into a table topper.) I have been working on this since December 2020…so I’m a bit slow! :) The backing I chose for this is a cherry print, and the binding is a solid red.**I had some red paisley Scrumptious fabric left over from a precious quilt backing, so I decided to cut the left overs into 5" squares. I wasn't sure what to do with it, so I ordered a fat quarter bundle of four different colors of The Good Life line from Bonnie and Camille. Since I love doing a crazy about of half square triangles, I went for it! Lol I have tossed the pattern around a few times, and decided to simply make pinwheels, using all the colors together. (Kind of a scrappy look) I will be sewing on this project during the week of Christmas. I also want to wish all my quilting friends a very Merry Christmas, and a happy, healthy, New Year! Many blessings to all of you! (2020)

Rory’s Birth Announcement Pillow

I previously made my new Granddaughter a quilt out of fabric my daughter-in-law chose. There was some leftover 5 x 5’s in the fabric collection, so I asked my DIL if she wanted the leftovers, or if she wanted me to make Rory something else. So…she mentioned doing a pillow similar to her birth announcement. It’s certainly not exact, as her announcement was round. I haven’t given it to my DIL yet, probably our next visit. We had just seen her for the first time on 3/13/22. (Born on 3/3/22)

Quilt As You Go Hexagon

When MSQC first offered the "Daisy and Grace" Quilt as You Go 2 1/2" Hexagon Template Set, I just had to buy myself the set. I watched their tutorial on making a quilt, table topper, and tree skirt, and I was hooked! Today, 7/3/2020, I did some hexi's with left over fabric from my Just can't Cut It quilt. It came together pretty quickly. Just wanted to share! Happy 4th of July everyone! *Update 7-19-20 Today, I finished my hexi project. I had just enough to make a topper for my tall dresser. First, I did a machine zig zag stitch to join the hexi's side by side, then I joined my five rows together. That was the challenging part. I love the finished product, but not sure if I would attempt a large quilt!
