| I thought that I was going to put all these pictures in some sort of order, but I'm not that good. As usual, a hodge podge. These are dog collars that my niece requested. She has 3 dogs, so they will be looking really cute. |
 |
| I thought that it would be even cuter if she coordinated, so I made her a matching reversible tote. I was having some sewing machine issues, but I have them corrected now. Knock on wood, I don't want to tempt fate. |
 |
| She had asked about a blue king sized quilt a few years ago, and since she is the niece who gave me a wonderful dog (which I had to give back after a year or so, due to my husband's health issues), I finally got around to it. I already had some blue Slab blocks, so I added more framed them and sashed them and with a border, got them to king sized. |
 |
| Basting was an adventure too, but it is so heavy that I was able to just drape it on the table and go for it. |
 |
| And, on to quilting, lots of smushing and mushing, but I was able to accomplish my usual mediocre meandering. |
 |
| Now it's a quilt, mailed and she received it yesterday. She should be taking a picture on her bed, probably today, I'm anxious to see it and will add it to my blog. |
 |
| We have a vet friend who has been very good to us, and so I decided to make him a quilt. Unfortunately, I messed it up a bit, and haven't decided if I should go ahead and give it to him with apologies. It started out with wonky stars from Darlene Michaud's youtube channel tutorial. |
 |
| My daughter got an amazing deal on a table and 6 chairs on Marketplace, and I made her these placemats. I had 2 in a red border already, the same red as the center of these, and so I added 2 that size, and 1 smaller one to use in the center of the table. |
 |
| One of my grandson's dog got very ill and had to have surgery. He got some amazing financial help from a friend, so I made her this quilt as a thank you. It is also from Darlene Michaud's youtube channel tutorial. |
 |
| My little chubby toy Australian Shepherd got groomed a couple of days ago and at least to my eyes she looks so cute that I had to add her. |
 |
| A couple of potholders from a Sewcanshe tutorial. I really like them. |
 |
| I watched a youtube tutorial on this Swoon pattern bag and decided to make with and add additional pockets. The tutorial was by Lauren Mormino. |
 |
| More dog bandannas. |
 |
| I made 30 something pillowcases for Christmas presents. |
 |
| And, a lot of aprons, I think about 13 or 14. They were also from a tutorial, but my mind is a blank right now. |
 |
| Then there were grocery bags, and again, an excessive amount. I think I made at least 8. these, plus 3 butterfly ones for my daughter. Again, a blank mind on the tutorial. I'll add the info when I think of it. |
 |
| For mine and my daughters 3 each grocery bags, I also made pouches to carry them I put the little strap on and my thought is a carabiner clamp to attach the pouch to the grocery cart handle. |
 |
| This fabric that I made all but one from was the valances in my brothers brand new double wide. He didn't care for them, but it's nice sturdy material. |
 |
| And last that I can think of, one of my granddaughters moved into her own little place and asked if I'd make her a couple of curtains. They are cuter in person, teapot duck fabric from Walmart. |
 |
| I almost forgot, my youngest grandson's baby quilt. He has 2 older brothers and so he also got the Marvel theme so that the bedroom coordinates. The blocks were from a shop hop I went on a couple or 3 years ago. I haven't been on one in a long time, my husband is too ill to go with me, or to be left at home alone for that long. |
