Quiltville mystery clues 1 & 2 progress!

I am really excited about doing the Quiltville Mystery Roll Roll Cotton Boll! This is my first Quiltville mystery. So far the first 2 parts have been fairly quick to complete. Have to wait till Friday for the next clue.

Teacher Totes!!

I made more schlep bags using the So Sew Easy Schlep Bag Pattern from Sentimental Stitches. I love making these bags! I think that my favorite part is picking the fabric and I found some awesome letter fabric for my son's teachers. I figure that they will be wonderful Christmas presents for them.I took the picture at my work. 

Christmas Gifts!

I made two Christmas gifts this weekend! I know it is still a little while until Christmas but I like to be done early, especially when I am making gifts. This schlep bag I made for one of my son's teachers. Still have one more to make and then I will let him decide who gets which one. The pattern for this bag is called So Easy Schlep Bag. This is the 4th one that I have made and I will definitely be making more. the instructions are wonderful and they are so easy to put together.

Here is the tote bag that I made today for my sister in law. Hopefully she doesn't find my blog because it will ruin the surprise. Even though she does know that I am making it for her. About a month ago she put in her "Christmas request". So here it is. The pattern is from Quilts Illustrated Penny Sturges called Pocket Parade.  My daughter was helping me take a picture of this one. Great pattern and instructions!

Thanks for reading!
