2013 goals and dreams

I decided that even though Judy won’t be doing the ufo projects, I wanted a list of goals and dreams for 2013. So I have a three-part list, the first part is garments: 1. I plan to make four garments for myself this year one per season. 2. I also have some pieced fabric that I …

july ufo done

Yes, it is finished!  I absolutely love it! I am so happy with the way the flames worked out.  They are actually my favorite part.  They are made of layers of sheers, some of them painted and also beads.  I started this quilt on January 22, 2011, so I actually finished this one fairly quickly- only …

flames

This is what did with the painted fabric.  I cut it really small and sewed it down.  I love the way it turned out.  I still have to finish the rest of the houses.

productive weekend

Well, I have been pretty incommunicado today.  One phone is down and the internet went down for no reason.  Yet, I had a really productive weekend. Here is my half-done rug.  Simply denim strips sewn to a worn out rug.  Then I fold the last strip and but the next one right against it to …

I worked on the satin quilt on Friday afternoon so I had yesterday free to work on the angel quilt.  So I alternated between sewing and reading for the whole day, with two lovely breaks at a bag garage sale and a walk around the lake.  It was such a great day. I began by …

june ufo

Here is my June ufo.  As you can see, it is far from finished. I have many concerns about it, not the least that it is part cardboard and part fabric.  I still like it and the way it looks.  I have some ideas for pushing it to the next layer, beginning with securing all …

ufo 2012

Judy at Patchwork Times is doing another UFO project for 2012, and I am going to give it a shot again.  I had seven finishes out of twelve last year so I am feeling that I was successful.  Only four of my projects are going to be a repeat for 2012 (one I just gave …

Halloween costume

So, of course, I wanted to wear my same costume as last year, but I still wanted to amp it up a little.  So I made this belt yesterday.  I call it my princess gypsy dream fortune teller’s utility belt.  I wanted to add flowers hanging down in order to be a float.  Maybe next year. …
