Pattern Review Here

This is for a coworker, I offer to sew a homemade diaper bags for anyone expecting as my gift. I love this fabric, it's stain repellant outdoor fabric, the beige on the inside is pre-quilted fabric.

pillows for Carrie

 
 
I love sewing pillows, they are so easy to make, and they look store bought with a little pipe-ing. At her request I made the pillow covers with a zippers instead of a flap, I used the by-the-yard home dec. zipper and a little flap to cover.

homemade drapes




these are my second drapes ever - these will be my winter drapes. they are a light sand color but don't let a lot of light through, I didn't calculate correctly and ended up with 2 additional hooks on each side than I originally intended. I probably should find a book or pattern or something, but I am always surprised how easy drapes are, a little tedious and hand-sewing though but I like the custom look for a lot less than new. And I learned how to string transverse rods, which might come in handy someday.

holiday tablerunners


my latest sewing: a halloween table runner for jane s. -the jack-o-lanterns glow in the dark! (my favorite is the back fabric) I must admit I do not like applique, but is seemed the best way to get what I imagined.  the autumn one is for kirstin s. I haven't quilted in a long time but I think I miss it, I especially love the maple leave block- I think because autumn colors are my favorite.
