Pre-New Year Resolution

It's 2 days away from the start of 2012 and I already have one new year resolution planned!.........

.......to finish all my quilt tops that have been hanging in my closet from the start of this year (actually there are 2 that are older than that, EEK) that have gotten pushed down the pile when something new takes my interest.

I'm totally not one of these people that can finish a quilt from start to finish. I usually can get the top done, then find another quilt that has captured my attention that I just have to start to make, hence the 7 quilt tops from the above picture. Yes, that is right I have SEVEN unfinished quilt tops hanging in my closet begging me to finish them each time I pass by. You can find the original post about each one below.

1. Grand Bazaar (eek, never got the chance to post about this one! it's going to be a quilt kit for the shoppe...coming soon)
2. Hungry Hippo zig zag (ekk, never posted about this one either)
3. Pick a bunch, organic Random reflections (this is a quilt kit here)
4. Amy Butler and Chain Link (my all time favorite)
5. Little Apples
6. Sanctuary Half Square Triangle
7. Andrea Victoria-New Wave (another one never mentioned... it will be)

Number 8 would be my baby quilt of Little apples, that is all pinned and ready to be quilted. Actually as I'm writing this, my little quilt is almost done and ready to be bound and snuggled.


As you can tell from the picture of quilt tops 4 of them were done for quilt kits for the shoppe while the other 4 were for my personal projects. This coming year, I will be featuring a lot more quilts that I personal make with free tutorials as well as a few quilt kits to be purchased.

Another great thing to look forward to will be our weekly link up parties, where you can link what you have sewed on throughout the week. These will be every Friday, but more information on that shortly.

a reminder that today is Thursday and have you bought your Customer Appreciation Sale Fat Quarter for only $1.25 yet?

Don't forget because tomorrow it will be a different fabric. this print can be found here or here.

last min present bags -Featured tutorial

I'm sure, if you are a avid blog or pinterest follower you have seen these adorable lined drawstring bags popping up everywhere.

These adorable bags are a creation of Jeni from In Color Order, who's blog I frequent often to get inspired for bright new projects. This bag is a FREE tutorial she has posted on her blog or can be found here. She also has created a pattern for purchase of many different sizes of these lined bags.

I made these 2 bags for my daughters pre-school teachers which I filled with baked goodies.

The fabrics are from Timeless Treasures Tiny town in PINK and BLACK.


The toadstools and Eastwind woven ribbons were a fun addition instead of using fabric. Both bags were great hits with the teachers and little lana had so much fun giving them away.

These 3 bags were made for gifts, the 2 made out of Apple houses for little lana's friends and the other out of the new Tuxedo prints is going to be used for a secret elf gift filled with handmade dish scrubbies.

I again used woven ribbons for the drawstrings as well.

All items I used for these adorable, fun and quick lined drawstring bags can be found here. A great thanks for jeni and her fun free tutorial I had tons of fun pairing fabrics and creating this fun bags.

Sewing with ruffle fabric-legging

I have been having so much fun with the ruffle fabric we just got in. I have made some legging's so far and am working on some skirts. Let me tell you how easy it is to make leggings, especially with the 1.5 inch elastic banding. It just takes 20 min and your done.

here are the ones I made in the STEEL ORCHID

as you can tell from the picture below the different size of the ruffles.

These are made out of the MINI RUFFLES BLACK

BOTH were made from this TUTORIAL and were so quick and easy.

Speaking of elastic banding, we have so many great colors and styles to choose from....


all of the above are 1.5 inches and the polka dots are reversible, which make pairing them with ruffle fabric so much fun!

We also just got in 3 inches wide elastic banding. great for the chunky waistband look.


We have white and black in these size.

Also we got in 4 new ruffle fabric colors:
