Before the New Year

Did a bit of sewing on a couple of purses! Something new to my repertoire , and I have been enjoying practicing. Sometimes I do make mistakes and a seam ripper is involved. My daughter liked the purse that I made her daughter and asked if I would make her one. This was her daughter's....


So I have her's finished.... but it is black and white checks. I forgot to take pics but didn't forget when I did the second one from the same material...



this one is a little larger and pattern is called "Redwood Tote" by Noodlehead. It has a re-inforced bottom.  Hope you enjoy a safe and happy new year! Martha

Onward!

  I have been doing some more sewing of flying geese, the past couple of days.  I have made some progress as I have about twenty sashings total sewn now.  Here are pics of what I have finished so far. I also got back another lap quilt from the quilter and I have sewn down the binding on the front side. In the evenings I am enjoying hand sewing the back side.   I also purchased some Applipops  , which were a bit on the expensive side($35) and decided to try them for all the circles in this quilt. They are not worth the price in my opinion.  To each his own. I prefer my mylar circle washers, There are many more sizes and easier to use.
