little quilt monday~~~tote

Little Quilt Monday

I am packing up for QuiltCon and I found this tote that I made years ago.

  

Does anyone remember the name of this pattern?  I can't remember and most of my

patterns are still in a box : )

I will be quiet while I am in Austin, but I will come back with lots of pictures

and inspiration!

Now it is your turn to link up something to

Little Quilt Monday

1.  This link-up party is for any small project.  For example, mini quilts, doll quilts, baby quilts, place mats, mug rugs,

wall quilts, table runners, etc.

2.  They can be a WIP(work-in-progress) or finished.

3.  If it is something from the past there is no need to write a new blog post, just link the one that you have already written, and, please link back to my blog post.

4.   If you are interested, you can add your pictures to my flickr group here, or join my Facebook group here. 

Let's inspire each other!

quiltcon~~~5 things about me

I am so excited about going to QuiltCon next week!

The Modern Quilt Guild is hosting a Link party to give everyone going to QuiltCon a

chance to introduce themselves.  They have ask for a picture, and then we are to 

post five things about us..... so here goes : )

Here's a picture of me on my way out the door to have dinner celebrating

the 32nd Anniversary of the first date with my dear husband.(Feb 13th)

Five things about me:

1.  I have two dogs and one cat....two children and one husband.

2.  I live in a house that was built in 1905.

3.  I didn't enjoy hand quilting until I discovered big stitches with perle cotton.

4.  I am going to take a Master Gardeners class next year because I love

nature and gardening.

5.  My grandmother taught me to sew when I was a child.  I mainly sewed

clothing until I discovered quilting in 1995 when I joined a neighborhood group.

That's five things.....

Are you going to QuiltCon?  If you are, join the Link Party here.

Leave me a comment if you are going, I would love to meet you!

little quilt monday~~~infinity scarf

Little Quilt Monday

I know this is not a quilt project, necessarily, but it is all I have

for today.  And it was loads of fun to make!

I ran across the link for a tutorial on making an

infinity scarf from two fat quarters here.

I decided to make one while I watched the Grammy's last night : )

It was so quick and easy.

I have a fat quarter bundle of Poetica by Art Gallery Fabrics

and I had a hard time deciding which fabrics to use, so

I will probably make another soon!

Although the tutorial calls for batting, I decided not to

add any so I can wear it in the cooler Spring months or

inside without getting too hot.  The fabrics also look like Spring

and I have Spring fever : )

I am planning to do some hand stitching in pink.

I always look forward to that process....it is so relaxing.

Now it is your turn to link up something to
