Done!

I tried 2 hardware stores, and could only find silver rings, so they don’t match the zipper, but I love the bag anyway. btw, these pics were taken in the parking lot of my kiddos’ school. I thought the sailing themed bag needed a photograph at the beach… and it was SUCH a beautiful...

mini-cathedral windows

here’s the finished product, after playing last weekend… I gave up on the hand stitching, and used my machine…   the whole thing measures almost 5″ square. I love the backsides of C-Ws I think I might need to make an Orange-peel quilt sometime soon… I love the contrast stitching on the back… I still need to trim threads and stuff, but my daughter stole it to be a blanket for her tiny flower fairy dolls… Luckily C was home tonight, so he took some artsy shots for...

ballet dress for a little girl

we have a birthday party today, for a 3yo girl… like most, she likes pink and ballet, so when I saw this ballet shoe fabric at my Bernina dealer, I snapped up a yard, and made this last night…I don’t have a pattern, but I used the peasant top tutorial from indietutes as a jumping off point…I added the three little bias-tape roses because the top was too plain…this might be too long, but it can be a nightgown now, and a dress later; the neckline is elastic, so it should fit for a while…hopefully she likes...
