Double Nine Patch pillow
There are all made for the same client. I sure hope she loves them when I get them to her. I have enjoyed doing them, but I'm definitely ready to make some quilts to share with you all.
I have started a donation quilt for Bama Belles using strips, but I'm sewing them onto phone book pages. They are not as large as the pillow back above. I sewed them onto ten inch squares of sheeting. I am ready to get that quilt done.
Today, my plans are to put the pillow forms I purchased for two of the above pillows in them and sew all seams together. I also have some jewelry orders to take care of, too. :D Before I start another project, I will be cleaning out and up my sewing room. It is in such a mess. I can't believe I have allowed it to be in such a mess. LOL I also plan to put in my step-mom's curio cabinet, now mine, in there to help with storage issues. At least I think it will. I need more moving room in there. I don't have a lot, anyway, but it is better than having my machine on the kitchen table and having no where to store fabric.
Well, I guess this post is long enough for now. Take care everyone. Continue to pray for those affected by the recent tornadoes and Texas and Oklahoma. My husband and I actually lived in Granbury, Texas for almost two years. So, that brings back memories and makes me sad to know sixty-one people lost their lives there.
Be crafty,
Teresa

Hi Teresa...
ReplyDeleteIn all fairness, I think you should post some pictures of your sewing area and how messy it is. If for no other reason than that it would make me feel better about how messy _I_ am!!!
Love your pillows and the quilt you made for this client. You're fabulous in your creations!
The donation quilt can wait though it does help get rid of some scrappy strips when you have a minute or two. I have a friend that keeps that makes blocks as she goes along, here and there or just wants some sewing that doesn't involve much thought process. Eventually there are stacks enough to make a quilt.
ReplyDeletePretty pillows! I was hoping you would say you were working on something for yourself, girl!
Loving these pillows, the yo-yo is my favorite:)
ReplyDeleteThe pillows are lovely. The fishing pillow was cool. I made ten pillows at Christmas time. After buying pillow forms 40% off at Joann's, I realized I could just as easily bought pillows at Goodwill and used their pillow form. Good luck with the rest of your quilts.
ReplyDeleteBeautiful! I love making pillows.
