So Cute Scarf...

I thought this scarf was so cute and there's really nothing to it.. I saw it on someone else's blog and she had a link to Martha Stewarts web site. The free Pattern is HERE!!

More finished projects.....

So I finally finished Alex's wall hanging can you believe it... I know it only took me a year oh well I've actually had it quilted and finished for a while I just hadn't bound it yet and so on the way to Utah I finished it... I'm slowly finishing my projects one at a time but the problem is that I keep adding more projects to the list!!

This is the rag quilt that I made for my cousin Cassandra she's having a little girl, were so excited. I got this kit at one of the quilt shops in town except there wasn't enough amterial for 3 of the big squares so I used some chennel I had left over instead and I think it turned out okay.... This is a baby boy recieving blanket I made I loved the material and had to get it. Katie and I learned how to do the corners perfect at the quilt retreat and we are going to put a little tutorial on how to do it, its so much eaisier then the way I was doing it and they turn out awesome!!!!

I made this reversable apron for our quilt guild apron challenge it was alot of fun to make.
These quilts are the ones my mom made for my cousin they turned out so cute and the quilting Janet did was so cute. We picked out the red fabric for my cousin becasue she really likes red I think they turned out so awesome and she loved them!!

Almost Forgot...

I've been reorganizing my fabric and I put it in this long tub so I could see it all really good! I'm sure you cant believe that I have more fabric than just this tub..... =)..... =) .....hehehe

I have my flannel in a different tub. Alex loved climbing on the tub he thought that I did it just for him!!!!

Quilt Retreat

This is the place that we had the quilt retreat, it's a back view but it was huge. The place was completely remodel and their was three floors. I had such a great time I was so glad Katie came it just made it so much more fun. I really miss our fun sewing days we had. Below our a couple projects that we finished. I'll let Katie talk about her's mine is the witch on the left. It's a buggy barn pattern and it was quite interesting technic in cutting and piecing. You stack all fat quarters on top of each other and cut out the witch with a pattern on top and then you move different pieces to the bottom so all of the witches are different. It took me a little bit to figure out but it turned out cute.... Its hard to tell but the witches legs are dangling. I would defenitly do a pattern like this again at least next time will know what to do.
I had other projects but they are gifts so I cant show them until I give them away so I will show them in a little bit. I also made an apron that I just finished but I haven't taken pic's of it so I'll get those on later...

This was the view I dont know if you can tell but in the background the Teton Mountians are there!!

We had the whole first floor setup with table's and sewing machines and cutting boards. It was so cool to see everyones projects they were working on there are alot of talented ladies in the guild.

Bobbie's Projects

These are some of the projects I have been working on. I am enjoying sewing so much and have Natalie to thank for that. I found a neat site where there is a ton of free sewing patterns and ideas. Check it out: http://www.jcarolinecreative.com

Finally 2 finished projects!

Hello! I'm so excited to finally have something to post on this cute blog. Thanks for letting me be one of your sisters in quilting! Late last night I attached the rest of the binding on to Claire's quilt. Thanks Natalie so much for sharing this darling pattern with me. This is from Nancy Halvorson's Winsome Baby collection- it's the "pip sqeak" quilt. I'm so happy with the way it turned out. I definitely need some more help and practice on doing hand applique, but I love doing the hand quilting!

My mom and I had fun putting this table runner together while I was visiting Boise. I did this fun fall runner. The fabrics are Moda's "Pumpkins Gone Wild." The pattern is from Heather Mulder Peterson's "Little Charmer's II." This one was my first time trying machine quilting- it was a lot easier than I expected- especially with that walking foot. My mom learned this great trick from another quilting friend: on the back of your table runner put a fabric for a different holiday or season. I put this summery juice fabric on the back- so now I can use it for more than one season!

I recently realized that finishing a project is very fulfilling. I've decided to make more time to quilt! It's relaxing as well as gives a real sense of accomplishment! Thanks for letting me share and for sharing your fun projects as well!

A quilter's must have!!!

Seriously this thing is amazing, if your like me and the ruler sometimes slides this little gripper works great. You can put it on any of your rulers and it just sticks with it suction cups. I love it, I just got it and I cant believe I didn't buy one sooner!!!

Also while I was searching on some blogs I found this SITE that had a tutorial for these cutest bag and it was so simple I had to make one and I just happened to have some fabric lying around(imagine that...) I made this is two hours thats how easy this was. I adjusted the size of it because I wanted it to be bigger it is a very versatile pattern. I also added pockets on the inside and I put the handle's in a different spot. A little tid bit though if you change the size just measure the outside piece before you sew the sides up so you have the measurements for the lining.

Also check out this SITE tutorail for cute storage cubes(scroll down to find it)!! There are some really creative people and I love when they share its great.
