Mini tote bags
We already have summer temperatures and I thought it's time to make some summer mini- bags - you don't know when a little girl needs a mini bag. And I made 7- using my Danielle pattern. Just for the pleasure of combining fabrics. I love even the straps! The fabric was quilted on a puffy polyester batting - the bag is soft, perfect for little girls. 2 fat quarters make the … [Read more...]

New Tote Bag Pattern
Here are a few of my latest tote bags. All the fabrics used for these bags are from the Breeze collection by Rosemarie Lavin Design for Windham Fabrics. In love with the front pocket - there is nothing better than a deep, outside pocket. The bag is roomy and it has a zippered pocket on the back. Of course, I couldn't help myself and I modified the pattern and I also stitched a large … [Read more...]
Together in a Friendship World
Our friendship quilt is finally finished. Its story is here. I told you how terrified I was when I washed the quilt; well, lots of worries for nothing. The quilt is perfectly flat and the sphere is almost perfect. The sphere measures 80'' and the difference between the horizontal and vertical diameter is 1/8'' (but a little more on other diameters). Mihaela named this quilt "Together in a … [Read more...]
