Cute pouch! I'm loving Allison Cole's birds of a feather. Thanks for the giveaway!
Congratulations Nupur! I have sent you an email.
Thank you all for entering and for telling me what your fabric crushes are. I have a few "new to me" fabrics to check out!
I needed a mini quilt to hang on my little stand on my telephone table.
Some of you may remember me working on minis every month, back in 2012. I also made these cupcake minis for our birthdays.
Well, I never got around to making the minis for April, May or June. So last week, I found myself a cute little embroidery block in my digital library. I found a nice orange floral fabric and used it to pick out the thread for the embroidery. I stitched it out with my embroidery machine and then bordered it, including a periwinkle little folded border.
Then I quilted around the embroidery and in the border. I simply used straight lines. I followed the edge of my foot but I moved my needle over as far as I could so the lines wouldn't be too close together.
I found this lovely gold fabric in my stash to use for the binding.
I think it is adorable and it will be perfect in the stand for the months of April, May and June!
I am linking this finish up to TGIFF over at My Quilt Infatation. Go check out some other great finishes!
Well, it's been a long time since I've posted about my Works In Progress. I am still working on My BOM - Woodland Christmas. Although I am behind, I am still enjoying doing the hand appliqué every once in a while.
Here is where I am at with Block number 2:
I think I will be having more time to work on this project over the summer months.
Today I am binding this little mini quilt.
I will be sharing it on Friday as my TGIFF post.
Today I am linking up to WIP Wednesday over at TN&TN. Go check out what other Canadians are working on!
The giveaway is now closed.
It has been a really long time since I have had a giveaway. I think Sew Mama Sew's Giveaway Day is the perfect time to get back into it. It is also a great opportunity to thank all of you who take the time to visit and to come and read my blog.
If you are new here, Hello! My name is Ginette and I live in Ottawa Ontario Canada. I am a 4th generation quilter and I love sharing my passion for making things with fabric and thread. I hope you will take the time to snoop around my blog and check out what I have been working on!
So what am I giving away? I thought I would give you the opportunity to win this zipper pouch I made.
It is a small coin purse size, measuring 5.5" x 3.5" on the outside. My iphone 4S fits in the pouch but a phone any bigger than that will not fit. This pouch is great for carrying small items like your lipgloss, some medication, gum and some money and/or credit cards. I have a friend who is a teacher and she stores her USB sticks in hers.
The inside of the pouch is lined with a nice small white dot on blue.
