Midnight Posies

A few years ago I started a block of the month from Morning Glory Designs.  I like to look around the Internet for interesting patterns and sometimes I will do a block of the month and sometime I just save it till I can find time to fit it in.  I always seam to have sew much on the go.  I am usually sewing 2 or 3 things at one time. 

I finally finished the quilt as we are going visiting in July and I thought I would take it with me as a gift for the hostess.  I also made a bag for it.

This is the work in progress that I posted a while ago.

Midnight Posies

I changed the applique since I wanted to get it finished and the other flowers were too small.  I used fabric from all the squares when I did the flowers around the edge.

No gift is complete without a bag.

Another Finish

I get a newsletter once a week from

all people quilt

and found a neat quilt.

Batik Squares and Strips

I had some batiks in my stash so I decided to make

 this quilt and use it as a table topper.

Here is my finished quilt.

I had some orange and green that I thought went

well with the burgundy and blue.

It looks nice on my patio table

I just might keep it there

and take my quilting

outside this summer.

Wallet and Credit Card Holders

I can't seem to resist making these small wallets and credit card holders.  I made 2 today.  The little blue one was made about a month ago.

2 small Credit Card Holders and one Large



There is a bit of a story behind these.  The large credit card holder was suppose to be a wallet made from the pattern at Moda Bake Shop but when I was making it I didn't like the way it was turning out so I left off the back part which was to be used to store dollar bills etc, and decided to make it into a Credit Card Holder. 

I also made a row of stitching under each

card slot so that the Credit Card

would not slide down out of sight.

This was not called for in the directions but

I thought it needed it.

I then took the other piece

that was prepared for the back of the wallet

 and stitched it so that it could be a small card holder.  

Folded into thirds it 

works great. 

I think I will add a snap fastener to

it to keep it together.

I just love this fabric.  It has scenes from

Peggy's Cove Nova Scotia,

Niagara Falls, Ontario

Cavendish Beach, Prince Edward Island.

It is real Canadiana.
