Hullabaloo Quilts

Today I will start cutting three new quilts and here are the fabrics that I'm going to use:






I only have a Fat Quarter of each of these beautiful prints, so I will be somewhat limited to what I will do, but that is also the fun part!

Work in Progress - Mendocino Quilt


YAY! Quilt top is finished! Oh NO!!! Out of batting... I will have to make a trip down to the sewing shop tomorrow and stock up! Which means I can start cutting the next quilt now!

A little help goes a long way


My little Mia is very interesting in sewing too, here she is helping me put together the pieces for the quilt we are making!

Frill Me Bag - Purple Tones


Last week I cut up a whole heap of bags to sew and today I finished the first one. I modified the pattern a little, but still need to change a few things for the next one I make.

Frill Me Bag


Today I found some spare time and made this bag, which I know I will use a lot! Fabrics used are from Heather Bailey's Freshcut Collection which I just love. The pattern used is Melly & Me's ''Frill Me''. I modified the pattern a little as I always do. I think I will make a few more of these!

I don't normally cook with an apron, but really I should!  I love looking at aprons and think they just make your kitchen look complete!

Today I finished these two reversible aprons, both made using Erin McMorris Park Slope fabric and a little bit of Heather Ross's dots.
