Having fun crafting/sewing. In my 9 to 5, working my tail off just like everyone. Hope for a better tomorrow but work hard to make it happen.
1st 3 rows pieced together. I’ll layout rows 4-6 next and then get everything sewn together. At that point I’ll hopefully figured out the borders. I need to add some width without adding another column. The panel blocks have a little bit of red that sneaks through. Fingers crossed not too much.

1 of 5 quilts back from the long arm service. For these I used MSQC. Great job with the top stitch and sandwiching. No puckers or bunches.
For this one I’ll use the blue w/white stars for the binding.

Size: 73.5 wide by 86 long
Pattern: Courage from Fabric Cafe (borders changed)

Individual blocks completed for the 1st quilt, now to get them sewn into rows. I’m adding a 6th row since this will be a lap quilt for their TV room. I’m still working on (aka thinking about) borders.

Have a sewtastic afternoon.

What a crazy couple of weeks it has been for me. And that will continue for the next few months.

Life takes us in directions we seldom see coming. This is just another path on my journey.

Another quilt cut minus the borders. Pattern on this one Roman Holiday by Fabric Cafe.

Fabric cut for a friend’s quilt. This doesn’t include the borders. I’ll be veering away from the pattern for borders. Possible adding a 6th row to give it some length.

Base pattern: Sew Quick by Fabric Cafe

I’ve been busy trying to play catch up while I had a few days off. The Santa ornament has been on my to do list for sometime. These 2 I finished this afternoon, only 4 more to go.

Finished this Merry Christmas breadboard sign. It can hang on a door, wall, anywhere or leaned up against something.
This was an another fun project that took time due to the different layers needing to dry.

I’m trying a few new things with my first attempt at wooden coasters.

1st is the obvious, wooden coasters. I usually make them out of fabric.
2nd, random snowflakes as dots, my 1st try at it.
And last a new mod podge made for liquid use.

I think they turned out ok.

This was a fun project to put together. Different mediums used on each part, acrylic paint, spray glitter, craft glue and glitter. Took a few days for the drying time. Can be used to hold cards, candies or small treasures.

How fast can the crafting area get cluttered? Faster than I can tell.

Put this snow globe jar decoration together. Takes time with all the drying stages but easy to make in between items.

This was inspired by fellow crafters who make similar snow globe decorations.

First coat completed. (Except for the box with legs to the top right of the tree)

The tree, bells and star will have both sides painted so it may take a bit.

The glitter ornaments are finished and they turned out a little better than I expected. The egg shaped ones are blinged out but you really could add as much as you want on any size. It’s going to be awhile before I can clean up all the glitter.

This week has been filled with experiments with making glitter ornaments. It has been an interesting project.
Several project fails but I think I worked it out.
The pattern is from The Ornament Girl but I’ve had to re-do it. I’ll show the finished product when the hangers arrive.

How true!!

It’s a bit chilly and snowy outside so why not try a new ornament craft. Yes, it looks a little bit messy but that is part of the fun. This is the glitter ornament from The Ornament Girl.

Finished this ornament up this morning. Pattern: Springtime by The Ornament Girl. I modified and created poinsettias for Christmas.

This one went together a bit easier once I modified a few of the pieces and folds.

Ok, this is a first for me. I’ve had plenty that were blunt but not missing the top part.
All part of the sewing/crafting fun.
