You see this bag in the picture above? I sewed it! A six pocket bag. Before you get too excited, I did not quilt the fabric. We had to bring pre-quilted fabric to class. I had mixed emotions about the pre-quilted fabric, but I was able to work in my Remix dot fabric. It’s not perfect and if you look close, you’ll see all sorts of mistakes. But, I’m happy that I completed it and didn’t walk out of class. The good thing is that this quilty bag comes at the perfect time. Just think how many leftovers I’ll be able to carry in this bag. Hope you have a Happy Thanksgiving full of happy times with your loved ones, and of course lots of leftovers.

Hey, look! It’s Orla Kiely and me. Well, kinda. Our fabric is beside each other. Just as it should be.

How fun is this quilt? Inspired by a quilt she saw on Film In the Fridge, Erica did a fab job! She let her daughter pick the fabrics. (She likes pink and flowers.) Read all about this awesome quilt here.

Sewing. And lots of it. I started taking sewing classes a couple weeks ago. You may remember my sewing teacher moved. Then I moved. And then things got busy. But, I decided to start taking classes again. I had high hopes that my grandmother’s sewing gene was passed on to me, but sadly they’re still lying dormant. I’m not completely hopeless, though. I did manage to make this little hot pad and some other things. And I’m still full of hope that any minute I’ll turn into a super great sewer. In anticipation of this, I even created a long list of things I’d like to make. On top of that my Mama said she’d like me to sew her Christmas gift this year. Say what? I think my eyes popped out when she said that.
Some things I learned in class:
– a sewing machine that works properly is a requirement.
– rotary cutters are your friend. you need them to cut things straight.
– sewing with boring fabric isn’t as fun as sewing with fun fabric.
