No, none of us is going to Florida! I made this for a dear friend of mine who lives in Florida, near the beach. As I live at the foot of the mountain and I see the sea and the beach once in a few years - this meaning VACATION - I can say I envy her; a little; maybe a little more! I still have beautiful fabrics and I still enjoy Danielle pattern! This is the largest version of the … [Read more...]
Flex Frame Pouches
I don't have too many memories from my childhood, but I do remember some vinyl flex frame pouches. Usually used for keeping coins. I was in love when I saw this little pouch made by Leila and I had to make a few. Leila wrote even a tutorial, she pieced hexagons for her pouch - thank you for the inspiration! Here are mine - 3 sisters - 3 … [Read more...]
New Frame Purses

Stay away from this type - there is nothing to hide the top stitching; the stitching on the inside looks more beautiful! The color of this frame is … [Read more...]

On a side note, my Grandmother's Flower Garden quilt I made with my sisters has been nominated for the Favorite Group or Bee Quilt over at the Blogger's Quilt Festival. Thank you all who nominated it. There are … [Read more...]
Mini Frame Purse
This is my first frame purse. Inspired by the wonderful frame purses I see everyday on Internet, I had to try to make one myself. I made a very simple pattern, to see how it works. It's easy! I attached the purse to the frame with hand stitches, I suppose it is easier than to work with glue. I am unhappy that my stitches are visible on the inside part. I can't figure out how to make … [Read more...]
