With a Flash

Without a Flash

I made this table runner for a “Quilting Buddie”. I hope she likes it. It is an original design. Something I kind of just came up with. I used a green variegated thread for the leaf design in the border. I used a brown to quilt in the diagonal lines.

Fall Wall Hanging

This fall wall hanging measures about 24 inches square. I bought the pumpkin fabric last fall and thought this was a good project for it. It was a larger print and I didn’t want to cut it up too small. I quilted it with a yellow and orange variegated thread in a meander pattern. I used a green variegated thread for the binding.

Halloween Trick or Treat Bags

I whipped these up tonight for my children. They are made out of orange felt. I can’t believe how easy they were. The ghost is made from white craft foam. I hot glued them to the felt. Then I glued on google eyes.

Today Andrew atempted to hold his bottle. He held it for about 30 seconds. He keeps trying to stick his finger in his mouth and suck on it while he is sucking the nipple. Silly boy.

Halloween Fabric Postcards

Yesterday while Andrew took a nap I was able to make some Halloween fabric postcards to mail out for this month.

This one shows some free motion quilting I did to give it a little more pizazz.

This bat I ironed on. It looked a little blah so I decided to try a little free motion quilting on it too. I like the craziness of the outline on the bat. I still have to finish the edges on all of these with a satin stitch.

So here is what I managed to put together today.

I have some cute bright orange fabric that I am going to use for binding. I used 5 inch charms that Iwasn’t sure what to do with. Now I want to make a few with other colors too. The wheels are turning. LOL.
