so I have been making most of the holiday gifts this year. I have actually really enjoyed it. Sometimes when I commit myself to making a gift I get frustrated and lose interest in finishing. this year I have been positive, I think that its the simplicity of the projects that has really helped. that and the new sewing machine. For right now I can only share a couple items. but these are pretty cute.
this first photo is of a mini quilt I made for my grandmother. the photo is of my aunt pushing my mom around the yard. I am still trying to decide on a binding.


next are some marble magnets. I bought little tins to put them in. I think they are so cute. I am totally addicted to making them.

this last set is of more wheezy and abby appliqued tops. another hoodie and a dress shirt. for my older nephew.

lastly this is one of my two squares for a collaborative quilt project I am participating in. I will post photos of it as we start piecing it together. It will be auctioned off with all proceeds donated to a local homeless shelter.







Handmade is fun! I agree! You have been so busy! I love the quilt square you made- that is fantastic! Are you printing your photographs on bubblejet, or how are you getting the images on the fabric?
Even though we didnt get together this week I still love you!
I see you have been very busy making beautiful things. You should check out Anna Keck’s blog if you havent already, she is doing similar things with her imagery. I love those little magnets! You have to show me how to make them! Great job with the quilt square too, I still have to make mine. I hope we can hang out sometime before I leave!
i love all of this! your quilts are just great. i hope sometime i can learn how you get photos on fabric like that as well. i have so much to learn…
Well, I find it extraordinarily interesting.Good luck to all of you. And I’m sure you’ll do fine. Really. Just fine.
