Origami bag - 2011

Haven't made one of these in a year or more, and thought it would make a neat prize for Bingo. I'll make a couple more before next week.

Thats a picture of my new lamp shade - I just love it. Also, throw pillow for the sofa - trying to go to lighter colors.

small pillows

I used the vanishing nine patch for the fronts of these pillows (12" X 12"). One has a yoyo on the front, the other has psuedo suede cloth on the reverse side.

For those who don't know what a yo yo is, they are the little round disks in the picture on the right. (Twin didn't know what one was).

Pillow cases and coasters

Having fun the last few days just sewing up a storm - pillow cases with ruffles and a set of coasters that I will probably use as prize for Bingo this Wednesday.

The bunny

This fabric is a little hard to make out details with. I have to make her a sun dress yet - it will be in either white or muslin fabric. Remind me that I don't care to do dolls....

Rooster fabric tote

I picked up the fabric for this tote at Stars and Stripes quilt shop in Corona, California last Friday. It was pretty pricey, so I only bought one yard. I used a black and white checked trim and handles with a red lining. I will be giving it as a prize tomorrow night at bingo.

Quilt Run 2011

These are the gals in my quilting group. We all get quite well. I dearly love them all. Except for one, weight is our biggest problem. I'm hoping that when the Prednison gets out of my system, I will drop some pounds - I've been off it for around three weeks now. That's me on the right.

New purses

Found a neat pattern for purses in one of my quilting magazines - made one for my neighbor (yellow and blue) and one to have on hand in case I need a gift.
