As usual, I am late to post the work that I did in 2022 or any update posts. It seems like Facebook is the easier place to post what I am working on.
I actually made a quilt for me in 2022. I found a beautiful jellyroll of flannel quilt fabric in fall type colors. I used the pattern from Jordan Fabrics and quilted it with Edge-to-Edge quilting on my embroidery machine.
Flannel Log Cabin Quilt (Whoops, this was actually made in 2021)
I also made several journal books for orders for Christmas and one for a friend. I really love making these books, but my studio is a giant mess while I am making them. Paper and Fabric everywhere!
While I had all the journal supplies out, I used up some of the scraps to make up snippet rolls for future use – plus they are pretty.
I have been really trying to purge some of my stash and supplies. I have too many things that I like to do, but I need to concentrate more on my quilting. So, as I was cleaning out my fabric stash (which is still on-going), I found some Vintage fabric that I actually bought new – LOL. So I made these – they go nice with my snippet rolls.
Another In the Hoop design that was super fun to make were these lanterns. They are stitched on wash away stabalizer and battery operated tea lights are used to light them up. Unfortunately, they can not stay outside in the rain, because the stabalizer will melt.
Then in the fall, I tried making rope bowls and I couldn’t stop. They are so much fun to make, and the batik fabric is so beautiful the way it works in a circle. I made a bunch for Christmas gifts.
And in-between all of this, I made some fabric beads out of craft felt and miscellaneous supplies I had left over from other projects.
