I enjoyed sewing room time today. I made two purse inserts from fat quarters instead of yardage. I had to make a few adjustments to the cutting out but now I know that it is doable with 4 fat quarters for each insert.
And worked on quilting for my neighbor. She made these are three little quilts with leftover fabric from a kit-aren't they the cutest little quilts?!
They are 36" square. I am quilting them with dragonfly and bumble bee pantos.
I am working on the border for the end of this little pattern........I have learned that I do NOT like to make the nupps (on this pic, the diamond patterned little bumps for design emphasis); they really disturb the peacefulness of knitting for me!!! Live and learn.
The pool is clearing up........looking better every day!
I haven't tried nupps yet but I really don't like them visually so I may never get around to it. I have to ask where do you get the pattern for the purse inserts my aunt has been wanting one forever seems like a good gift idea.
ReplyDeleteThe colors in Millie's quilt are so bright and cheerful -- nice. Make sure you share close-up pics of the quilting!
