Today is the last day of the "She Who Sews" blog hop, hosted by hosted by Carla of Creatin in The Sticks and Mdm Samm of Sew We Quilt. All the previous projects have been wonderful and have definitely given me inspiration on how to use up the rest of my fabric.
I am excited to show off my creations and I am going to start from largest to smallest.
First up is a new wall hanging for my sewing room.
I call this one, "Just the Ladies"
My favorite lady is the the Hearts lady. I love her red hat and her green wings.
And her lips are the perfect shade of red.
Second in the line up is my new wall organizer.
It will hold my smaller rulers and current (or next in line) patterns that I am working on.
It will hold my smaller rulers and current (or next in line) patterns that I am working on.
The pattern is called Four-Pocket Organizer and was originally in the February 2011 Quilter's World magazine, but I bought the digital pattern from Annie's E-Pattern Central.
Next up is a Mug Bag. Complete with built in mug rug.
I fell in love with this bag as soon as I saw it. It is a free pattern from www.Red-Brolly.com
The bag is meant to safely carry your special tea or coffee mug to your friend's house and back.
When you open it there is a pocket for your coffee and tea bags and a place to set your mug while you are drinking, but since I am not a coffee drinker I turned it into a small sewing bag. Right now I have my yo yo makers in it.
It is perfect to carry around for road trips and doctors offices.
Here it is opened up. In the background is project number 4.
It is little zippered sewing pouch. You can never have too many pouches. ;)
This one measures about 5 inches. Maybe a wee bit bigger with the binding.
Now we come to the smallest project in the line up. A needle and thread carrier.
Sometimes I do bindings in the car and this tiny pouch is perfect for that.
The tutorial didn't call for velcro, but when I was trimming the extra strings I wasn't paying attention and I cut off the thin cord that was suppose to hold the case shut. Instead of un-stitching it and putting the cord back in I added the iron on velcro. Perfect fix.
I had a great time making all these little storage containers and my new wall hanging.
This is a fun fabric line to work with.
Yep, there are two Mug Bags.
Since I made the mug bag out of strips instead of fat quarters and was able to get two bags out of one strip, and was able to sew two bags at a time. One for me and one to Giveaway. I'd love to share one of the Mug Bags with you. Just tell me where you are from when you leave a comment and I will put your name in a hat to win my extra Mug Bag. I will pick a winner sometime Monday February 10.
Thanks so much for stopping by and make sure you check out the other ladies who made projects for us today.
