All museums should use cats as showroom aides. The fabric is Robert Kaufman's Metro Cafe Toasters, originally purchased from Peapod Fabrics in San Francisco. |
She only just started sewing with a machine last year, and this is only her third project (here's her first!). Way to go with tackling quilting with three super-tall layers of batting, Emily!
And now it's your turn to share! Once again, the link party is your chance to show off what you've made from your stash, and it doesn't need to fit the theme necessarily; as long as you used fabric you already own it counts. After all, potholders aren't necessarily spring-y...
Happy ending: I took my mom's machine in to the shop to get a tune-up (it hasn't been serviced since she got it years ago, I think), and now it's back to being functional. I don't know if I'll get the lobster dress finished before we go back down to TCOCC, but I'm going to try!
eek! not sure why i can't get a title attached to my photo! Sorry - not sure what I'm doing wrong
ReplyDeleteGuess I'd better see what I can do with the last days of March then.....
ReplyDeleteOne of these days I'll have a picture to post with this!
ReplyDeleteYea!! You read my mind! Can't wait to see everyone's projects!!
ReplyDeleteThese all look great! Kudos to your sister - I made a potholder once and it was not exactly the 10-minute project I expected... Her stitching looks so straight!
ReplyDeleteOkay, so I was silly and put my name instead of the name of project. Sorry! I don't suppose there's a way to fix it, is there?
ReplyDeleteAt the end of last year SewRuth (http://sewruth.blogspot.co.uk) nominated my blog for a blogger award. It has taken me a while to pass on the accolades, but I'm delighted to let you know that I've nominated your blog in my list of nominees. Please head on over to Sally Sews Something (http://sallysewssometing.co.uk) to pick up your award.... and thanks for all the inspiration! :)
ReplyDeleteI thought I posted a comment here...maybe I only imagined it! Your sisters potholder looks great, I've tried to make a few and they never turn out good!
