Christy's Craft Challenge April

I made a journal for Christy's April Craft Challenge. I tried a new technique with the burlap and leaves, a little free motion quilting just to get my feet (fingertips?) wet. It worked out and was fun! The clip on the journal is the spring from the clothespin I needed to use. I had no idea how hard it would be to Krazy Glue a glass bead on a metal clip! They just didn't want to stay on. More brute strength and compromise, lol! I used some of my special fabric for the inside :)

Christy gave us some very nice supplies for this month's challenge. She calls it a combination between green and bling. See the screen print and click the pic for details on how you can play too!

Good Luck Lady Amulet

This amulet is for a scrap swap, so she's made from bits and pieces. I backed her with interfacing, glued her to a piece of leather, and added a cord. She can be hung from the rear view mirror or worn like a necklace. She's a bit first try-ish, and I can think of a few improvements, but I like her ok...I hope the receiver likes her too!

T-Shirt Redo

This is a plain craft store tshirt, cut off at the bra-line and neck, with added fabric and trim.
Note to self: No yellow, A little more tummy room, A little less boobiness :)

Quilt Top Finished!

The quilt top for the LFA Beginning Quilting is finished! I'm pleased with it, but not ready to back and quilt yet. I might add some blocks, I think I want flannel instead of batting for the inside, and I don't have a long arm so I have to decide on a finishing method...all that for another day though!

Under Construction!

My first quilt! I have the nicest instructions from the LFA Yahoo Group (we do free fiber arts classes), although I'm deviating from them just a bit. The blocks are finished and the layout is pictured below...here's my under construction Spring Garden Quilt!

Bandanna Pincushion Project

Not what you would expect from a bandanna? Me either...but it just sat there day after day, asking for lace and pearls. Too small for a bag, what to do, what to do...then a pincushion swap came along! I hope the receiver likes pink and girlie :)

Patchwork Horse

Here she is - Miss Sassy the Patchwork Horse! Sadie hasn't seen her yet. I hope she likes her...
