I have finished another purse, a kitty bag... Kristine (DD) loves cats, so I guess this one will be hers. Last Monday she came to my quilted handbags class after her dance practice, and started sewing a phone holder for her cell phone. She did it all herself, and I think she did really good. See how well it matches the purse?
I have also received my first order from the fat quarter shop And I have to figure out what to do with all these charm squares and the jelly roll. Oh I just love getting new fabric...
And if you are wondering about my Elm Creek reading... I have finished book no. 2; Round Robin, and tonight I will begin reading the cross country quilters. Oh I just LOVE these books.
I love the purse. And I love the fabric...I want to touch it! :)
ReplyDeleteI love the purse! It's darling!
ReplyDeleteYour Fat Quarter Shop goodies look like fun! Enjoy, enjoy, enjoy.
Love the purse and your fabric looks yummy.
ReplyDeleteI have read the first two books too and christmasquilt. I now ordered 3,4 and 5 of the elmcreeknovels.
Great purse! And I recognise the mobile phone holder - that pattern is a lot of fun to do, and I'm guessing your daughter had a blast doing it; it looks great! Charm squares and a jelly roll ... ohh lucky you! Have lots of fun with them! Nice to see you're hooked on the Elm Creek novels! And who knows, maybe I can trick you into doing an SBS someday - (you just have to read The Master Quilter first... :o)
ReplyDeleteÅååå for et flott kattestoff. Veska ble helt topp og mobilveska også. Dattera di er jo kjempe flink til å sy. Ja er det ikke gøy med nye stoffer. En blir jo helt "rusa".
ReplyDeleteLove the fabric in your purse. And you did a great buy of fabrics. Those jelly rolls are so beautiful.
ReplyDeleteJeg får handle på årsmøtet jeg !!
Bare noen dager igjen.
The purse is very cute and the Fat Quarter Shop purchases look lovely.
ReplyDeleteSå fin den kattevesken til Kristine var! Så artige stoffer. Og så flott mobilveske hun har laget. Syferdighetene går i arv ja...Så dyktige dere er! Alltid spennende med nye stoffer! Se på dem, ta på dem, planlegge hva en skal sy...
ReplyDeleteI too have stacks of the charm squares in my stash and they're fun to have around even if I never find time to sew them. Just seeing them in the quilt shops makes me want to buy more! I haven't bought the jelly rolls yet as when I went to my quilt shop they were sold out during her February sale. They look neat rolled up that way! :D
ReplyDeleteA wonderful purse (did you know I love sewing bags!?) and a well done phone holder. Your new fabrics look like a lot of fun. Lucky you!
ReplyDeleteNo!! It's so lovely! Ciao ciao
ReplyDeleteGreat fabrics, lucky you! I love the kitty purse, too! I only JUST finished: Circle of Quilters by Jennifer Chiaverini and I think it's my favorite Elm Creek book. They're all really good too! There's a new one coming out next month, too. :)
ReplyDeleteWow!!! The purse it is so cute :)))) I love the you fabric!
ReplyDeleteHerleg veske! Beskjed frå Amazon, bøkene mine kjem rundt 20. mars! God tur til Trondheim, ser på Quiltegruppa at du har tenkt deg dit.
ReplyDeletethe purse looks lovely and the mobile phone holder your daughter made is very nice too.
ReplyDeleteI like the fabrics you have bought. I have bought fabrics from the Fat Quarter Shop a number of times and have been very happy with the service
