Congratulations to our OttLite giveaway winner, Dana, from Country Heart and Home. Random.org picked comment number 68 and it was her!!
I'm continuing to work on the "pottery barn" quilt I'm designing for my friend. Our inspiration started with this bumper pad that was purchased off of ebay:
She wanted these flower/trees to be used in the quilt design along with lots of hand embroidery, minky, and a piece of pottery barn sheet fabric she loved.
Here are my paper tree patterns, numbered so I could remember the placement once I got them cut out of the fabrics!
Next are my tree appliques cut out and ready to be ironed onto the fabric and machine appliqued around the edges. Since these pictures I've gotten all the quilt top pieces sewn together and I've been working on the embroidery on the trees. I'll definitely be showing more pictures as I finish it up!
August has been a super busy month for me, with sewing several quilts, wedding and baby shower gifts. I'm trying not to get overwhelmed, but to enjoy the rush of deadlines and savor being in my sewing room again.
More bound-edged tea towels...these were a wedding present for a sweet bride who is doing her kitchen in pink and green!
Earlier in the month I finished off 4 new baby quilts for my etsy shop...haven't gotten them up yet, but hopefully soon! I'm getting ready for the Dustbowl Arts Market again in 2 weeks, so I'm hoping they will sell before I have a chance to get them on etsy. =)
Marie wanted to be in the photo shoot...she's so silly!
Beautiful.

ReplyDeleteSometimes it's difficult to keep the kids out of photos.
ReplyDeleteMy grandson was initially shoehorned into clothes my wife had made, and now he wants to try everything on and have a photo done.
One day I will publish them!
