New Items for Christmas Show!!

 New Items for Family Christmas Gift Show


So excited for November! Not only for the show but my beautiful younger sister is coming out to help. I miss her so badly! We will have a blast!




Cute lil ink drawing of Vivian the cat. 



I had some scraps of fabric that went really well together so I made a doll quilt. I finished it so quickly I think I will make quite a few of these. Plus I can get rid of some of my scrap stash!


New dolls: Sven and Calista:



Quilted postcards:

These are all murals from around SLC. If I sell any of these mural postcards, donations will be made to YMCA or Boys and Girls clubs downtown. (Small business taxes will be fun this year. It's going to be my first time doing them so I will work with a pro and hopefully learn a bit more each year!)

Resurrecting Old Blog Post: "Mind's Eye Quilt 1/29/22

  I started this quilt top years ago and had it in my "failure" pile since I got the geometry wrong in a few spots. I named it "Mind's Eye" and I wanted it to be a meditation on the cosmos, our world is how we see it and the intricate interconnectedness everything has. I make my own patterns so it was a bit rough. I do plan on trying the design again. Possibly with similar color schemes.  I was throwing an Easter Egg decorating party and only 2 co-workers showed up. It was really nice of them to come out! My one coworker asked if I had pictures of any quilts I made and I only had a picture of Minds Eye. I explained it was a failure and she said "I don't see it, if you finish it can I have it?" So I finished it and gave it to her at her retirement party.  *I did end up quilting more in the dark section at the top and bottom. I did simple triangles.

*This is at the Sunflower house I was driving in the middle of the state of Utah among mountains, the beautiful sky and farm animals. It was absolutely stunning and I heard a few songs with something that reminded me of the ukulele. I knew of a music shop in town that I could buy one from and decided that was the first thing I was doing when I got back.  I named her Gloria I made a case from some fabric I thought suited the instrument. I quilted it and used my serger on the inside seams. It has the printed top layer, thick fleece and upholstery fabric for lining. I traced around it leaving a seam allowance. The edge pieces start wider for the base of the instrument and taper toward the tuning pegs. I inserted 2 zippers and serged the seams  I serged all the pieces together, while holding my breath! There was a lot of layers! Quilted detail:
