Quilted Grocery Bag


I finished this bag as my lesson for a modern quilt for the Olsburg Quilt Group in February.  The instructions were really well written and everything went together nicely.  The solid fabrics and straight line quilting made it a good choice.

Miniature Swoon blocks and design boards


My new design boards with 3 miniature Swoon blocks.  I used Elmers for the blue design board and a glue gun for the green design board, and I can tell you that hot glue can leave a nice blister until you get smart and use an old nail file to flatten the binding .  The miniature Swoon blocks have 57 pieces.  I love these design boards as you can lay out the blocks for piecing, and they stackable for portability. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1nSZtoionpA
