weekend crafting xoxox

SO INSPIRED by meg ....i have had this idea on my mind for a long time....and i have a LOT of french general fabric left over from my finished le jardin quilt

so fun to work with these left over fabrics....5 little mug mats all sewn up xoxox
began last night...finished this morning....love this ticker tape / no rules / everyone is different kind of crafting xoxoxo

so easy and fun...i made mine a bit bigger using 9 1/2 x 6 1/2 inch for the main part of the house and  a 7 inch square cut on the diagonal for the roof

added initials to personalize a few for gifts xoxo

added a few buttons

love using bits of lace and ric rac

doesn't even matter if you sew straight xoxox

these will be great gifts....i think there will be many more of these...
a big thank you to meg for the inspiration....a lot of my favorite project ideas come from others and i really appreciate the ones that encourage you to be creative...play and have fun xoxo pam

one good thing about rainy days and mondays

we are having some very wet days...but that makes it very easy to stay home and sew and sew and sew xoxoxox


finished piecing half of my sandy quilt


using only fabric from my stash i pieced 3 x 2 1/2 " wof  together
 and cut  them into 6 1/2 " squares

inspired by redpepperquilts to do a low volume

but also played around with the sash and corner block idea
before deciding on this alternate solid white block pattern as my favorite...more to come soon

also did this up for nancy... machine quilted with blast off by lorien.... it will be a sample quilt at pacific fabric in bellevue

 i love that this fabric is called ~extraordinary world~ by jennifer heynen for in the beginning
this was my very wet yet wonderful walk yesterday xoxox

we are feeling very fortunate due to all the local flooding in our area...and the sun is trying hard to shine today....happy tuesday xoxo pam
