'QuilTuesday'--Sharing Sewing Class Projects

Hello!!! Before I share all the sewing projects. I wanted to let you know that one of my projects was featured on another blog. I made this precious painted toy chest using an old headboard.


  If you didn't see it before,you can see it here. Kathy at A Delightsome Life was kind enough to choose my project this week. Hope you'll check out her blog here! She has a weekly Home and Garden Thursday with lots of great ideas from the blog world.





Onto the sensational sewing shares--
It was another busy,productive day in the sewing circle class. There were a lot of sewing projects and quilts to show off! First of all, Diane finished her scrappy batik quilt and it's got binding and everything. Gorgeous!
 
 
 
 
 
 
                                       
Sharon has been sewing up a storm and finished this darling Heart patch quilt top. Love the sweet fabrics in this one!
 
 
Danielle has made a few of these patchwork bags in bright whimsical fabrics. She's varied the patch size to get different bag sizes. Fantastic colors and patterns in her work!

 I've made a couple of these bags from the same pattern. The large bag is perfect for quilt class. It holds a ton of fabric, a large quilt or supplies. It even works great for the beach or a weekend bag.
 
Mimi has started a quilt using the 'Dresden Plate' pattern.She's got some pretty fabrics and  bright color combinations for this project! Mimi likes to call them 'flowers', you can see why...
 
Linda has been making these cozy blankets. They're large pieces of fleece fabric. 2 pieces are fringe cut, then tied together. Great argyle fabric choice for this one!
 
Diane finished the batik quilt above, then started on these butterfly patches. They're made using freezer paper to cut out the many little parts. Then they are pieced together. What an ambitious project!
 
 Diane also shared this cute, cute, cute bird painted on window screen! She's going to sew it onto a denim tote bag. I need to get this painting pattern!


 
 
Not to be outdone by all the quilts and projects done in class, I thought I would share this quilt I finished a while ago.(Hey, it's my blog!) It's in my guest room and the quilt has a braid pattern. I loved finding all the fabrics, grading them from light to dark.   In my guest room, I  made the pillow case, the patched bolster, the covered headboard, the painted  chair.... I'll be sharing lots of these projects in future posts.

Quilt Share!

Tuesday was another day with the sewing circle. We were working furiously on our quilts and sewing projects. Sharon had 3 new quilts to share. She has been a busy lady!!!
She made this pretty 9 patch quilt above and this cool pattern below. Love the intertwined designs!
 
 
Sharon also completed a quilt to donate to charity. I took it outside to photo...


 
Bobbie has another quilt---
ready to add the binding. Such pretty soft colors and lovely design. Note the machine quilting, again by Ginny!

The quilting class was busy with lots of talented ladies. I hope to feature their work every week here. (Gals, don't let me forget to take a picture of your quilts and projects! )
Until next week... Have a Grateful Day!
My Garden is in Full Bloom!
