The Latest Stuff!

I got a darning foot for Christmas... this is it!

I used it to free motion quilt around the motorcycle guys. It was the first time I tried it, and surprisingly it went really well! So, you can see I've finished Micheal's quilt.

Here you can kind of see the quilting I did on the black/white checkered area, but you really can't see the quilting around the guy.

I made my mom some mushroom earrings for Christmas, so here they are...

Here is the fleece blanket I made for my sister. The directions are here. As you can see it's pretty simple. You need 2 piece of fleece the same size. Then cut strips around the fabric and then tie the two sides together.

Christmas Presents!

I can finally post some of the Christmas gifts I've been working on!

These two blankets are going to Ray and Rose, two of Julio's Godchildren. They are three-year-old twins.

This is a flannel panel that I got at Joann's and put binding on as a Christmas gift to Jocelyn. She loves horses and was really excited about the gift.

These are two clip boards that I made for Valery and Rebekah, they should come in handy at their jobs in the public schools. Ruth made one for me last year and I've been making them as gifts for others since then. You can see the directions on Martha Stewart's Website.

These are the magnets I made from bottle caps and paper. They are so easy! You can find the directions I posted under October. I found this idea at Panopolie, one of my new favorite stores in Raleigh.
