Origami purse

When my friend and I went on the Quilt Run a while bag, we were given a pattern for an Origami purse. It is made from two squares (mine were 22") sewn face to face and turn right side out. Folded in thirds (point on point) and a few seams. It was a snap to make and really turned out cute.

If anyone is interested in the pattern I can scan it and post it here.

Everything I do that should be in a straight row inevitably ends up going down hill. Needless to say, I won't be asked to put googly eyes on the other ghosts that we made.

Craft Club making Halloween Ghosts

Here are some of our Craft Club members working in my dining room - we soaked cheese cloth in liquid starch, stretched over a balloon sitting in a glass - Looks as though I won't be eating in the dining room for a few days.

Wall Hanging

This is the wall hanging we have been working on in our craft class here in the club house. Every one of them looks totally different, although we all working from the same pattern. Some are soft and delicate, others bold and colorful, and mine, dark and made from heavy materials.

I wish I had chosen something other than the satin stitch to applique the pieces - it has been difficult to work with, but I sure learned a lot. My background material is tan cordoroy and I stuffed the binding fabric to give it some texture.
