Quilted ruler bag



I LOVE this owl fabric, I have been using it a lot for projects. I made this bag from a Bella Nona Design Studio pattern.
It fits my small cutting mat and all of my rulers, large and small, for carrying to and from classes,s o they don't get ruined.
The pattern had more pockets on the inside, but I chose to put just one...there are 3 on the outside of the bag.

2 down....2 to go




The bottom (red lining) stocking I used texture magic to do the cuff. I quilted it in diaganol directions then applied steam to get the texture......looks good but a lot of work. For the blue one I made a trip to Fabricland this afternoon, to get some faux fur for the cuff. I have been sneezing ever since, but much easier! I also traced the second one adding a half and inch all the way around to make it a bit bigger...They match the tree skirt too!

Gramma's table runner


I made this for my Gramma's b-day. The strips are random sizes, and I did free motion quilting on all of the light blue pieces.

Thread catcher

I just love this owl fabric. ....I made the pink and white one for my Mom for her birthday. The top is a pin cushion and filled with sand so it hangs on the edge of the table.

The Witch is in.....

This project turned out to be a lot harder that I anticipated! I appliqued all of the pieces on, but the stitching around those bats and letters was enough to drive me crazy! A lot of stitches were pulled out in this project, and re-done...I used some red jewel like buttons for the witches shoes to add some bling. I also have some spider buttons to sew on but forgot to do that before I took the pic. The backing fabric is black and white skeleton heads....I just quilted as I did the stitching around each piece.
