Today is the final day of the Tickled Pink Blog Hop! It is being hosted by Carla of Creatin' in the Sticks.
It seems I have been bringing up the rear lately on these hops, I think they are leaving the best to the last. At least that is my opinion!
We were to create something with pink in it, with five granddaughters I may have a fair amount of pink.
Bird in the Air blocks centre |
I pulled a couple Bird in the Air blocks out of my orphan block draw, sewed them together, and added a fabric square to each side.
quilt as you go |
I decided to do a quilt-as-you-go method for my project.
A variety of pink strips for the top |
The above piece is 15'' x 15''. Looks okay, but I think it could use a little something more.
that's better |
A little applique and I think the front of my project is done. Now on to the back I pulled a piece of fabric from my stash, no idea how old it is. My guess would be early 90's?
simple diagonal line quilting |
I made a quilt sandwich of batting and the fabric, both sides of the sandwich use the same print.
I made this piece 15'' x 17''.
the back in the freshly fallen snow |
By now I'm sure you're wondering what did she make.
Tada! A project bag |
I made a fully lined zippered project bag. The bag finished at 14 1/2'' x 14 1/2''. Now the next question is what will I be putting in it, at this point no idea. Maybe I will list it in my Etsy Store, StitchinatHome.
Let's see what my fellow bloggers have made, today's list is below.
