I am still here...

Sorry it has been a while.
The end of last year was crazy. I was given another new quilt to sew with a short time to get it done in and made another bag. The quilt is suppose to have another row at the bottom, but my boss wanted it by a certain date. The name of the quilt A-mazed and the bag's name is Santa Barbara.

I finally got the top done for my father in-laws quilt. I just need to piece the back together and get it quilted. I am also working on a baby quilt for my cousin.



This is the new bag that I made. It was fun to do. The bag has two different printed fabrics, they are the same color and the swirls I made one on the top and one on the bottom. One had the dark fabric on the top with the light one on the bottom and the other side I switched it.








This is one side.

This is the other side.

New Quilt


A picture of the new quilt

A new project

These are the two different sides after I had quilted around the design
















My boss designed a couple new patterns and I was asked to sew one of them. One was a quilt and the other was a new purse. I made the purse, my directions were written on a piece of notebook paper and I had a pencil diagram on how to cut my pieces out. The bag ended turning out real nice. The bag had the same design but done with different fabrics on each side.

project update


I got the blocks sewn together. The quilt has 3 more boarders to go on it. So it is going to be bigger.

Projects lately

I was asked by Darryl's parents to make them a new quilt for their bed. It is exciting to do the only thing is that they have a California King size bed. This is the biggest quilt I will have made. You can see Wickett was helping me lay it out. My pets can be so helpful sometimes. The only problem was I could see what I was doing with him sitting on the squares. The name of this pattern is Hip to be Square.




I was asked by my boss to make a new quilt top for one of her patterns. I had not made this pattern before it was fun to do. The name of the pattern is called A Crooked Mile. She is going to put it up in her booth at the shows she goes to.

Anyone want some help!



I had decided that I would sew a new pair of pants. Mischief decided he would help me. As you can see he was not much help.
