Summer Sewing

I’m so happy to be able to show this Frenchy Bag (pattern by Amy Butler) on the blog because it’s finally finished.  I bought the fabric for this bag back in December and it’s been sitting in my “WIP” pile for what feels like forever.

Here she is!

Fabric is Modern Meadow by Joel Dewberry.  This fabric line is awesome!  I might’ve picked up enough of it to make another bag….

This is a long over due gift for my brother’s girlfriend.  I hope she likes it!

Other things I’m working on….

I received this little bundle of fabric at the PMQG June Meeting.  Jay McCarroll was our guest speaker and brought lots of goodies to show us.  You can check out a full recap over on Andrew’s blog

Jay launched the Modern Quilt Guild’s Habitat Challenge at our meeting.  Each guild member was given a fabric pack to make an original block to submit for Jay to pick a winner.  I brainstormed for a bit and came up with something I like.  All of the blocks made will eventually go into charity quilts to send to Japan.
