Peasant top and a New FO

Hello!!

I just finished sewing a peasant top for my eight years old daughter during the weekend. This is how it looks like... 

 I follow the free pattern tutorial by  Lier at Ikat Bag.  It is a very simple pattern and easy to follow even for a beginner.

With that finished, I start to cut and sew my February New FO Quilt Block. This quilt is for my sister since the stash fabric were given by her.   I used nine patch design ...

and this is how I intend to arrange each block when everything finished.

 

Happy Sewing!!

Scrap Attack String QAL

Hi everyone!!

 I started the February month with sewing the blocks for the Scrap Attack Strings QAL which I participated at Sew Lux.  As at yesterday I've finished sewing all the 8 blocks which meant to be for January month.  Basically we need to complete 8 blocks a month to have a  finish quilt size of 44" x 55"(80 blocks).  And these are all the scraps that I've put aside for this Quilt Along.  I will start sewing another 8 blocks for February month next week.

The paper piecing technique use in sewing this block is really easy to understand. For those interested to join you may click HERE to get the details.  You're not far behind since we're just started. 



Happy Sewing!!

January New FO projects

Hi everyone!!

These are two new projects that I've started in January 2012...

This first project was inspired from Ms. Nanette at Freda's Hive from her Scraptacular Picnic Quilt tutorial. I choose to make it  into 12 pieces of 13" blocks  from scraps fabric.   Added with 2" sashing using white fabric... and this is how it looks like once I've done... this is my first quilt top that I've sewn for 2012.



My second project is a quilt for my boy size 60" x 72"

Both are ready to be quilted with the backing.

Happy Sewing!!
