Share-It Tuesday

It’s Share-It Tuesday! What have you been working on?

Not much stitching going on here this week, but I did manage to finish six applique posy needle cases. One I will mail to my swap partner later today and a couple others to friends.

What about you?? What have you been working on?

Coupon Clutch Tutorial

The other day, I was browsing around the Moda Bake Shop and came across this bright and cheerful Coupon Clutch Tutorial.

Coupon Clutch

I had the pleasure to meet Julie from jaybird quilts a couple of months back in Lancaster. Her tutorials are always fantastic.

While I don’t really collect coupons, I love the size and shape of this little clutch. It’ll be perfect for storing needles, thread and scissors for applique-to-go projects.

Download the tutorial! Scroll to the bottom of the page, it’s a PDF file that you can save to your computer or print out to take to your sewing room.

I want a set for my sewing studio, and I think both Lucy and Alice, my nieces, will need sets too for Christmas. They’d make a great gift for your quilting friends as well. Perfect for storing fabric scraps.

Bundles of Joy Quilt Tutorial

Ryan Walsh of I’m Just A Guy Who Quilts, put together a fabulous tutorial for this mini quilt.

It’s called Bundles of Joy Quilt and finishes at 24″ x 28″. You’ll need one charm pack and one yard of coordinating fabric. Lots of step-by-step pictures to walk you through how to put this mini quilt together.

I’m thinking to make a larger version for myself to have in my living room. I have a Butterfly Garden layer cake just calling out to me to be used.

Scrappy Bookmarks

With less than two months left until Christmas, I’ve started thinking about some quick and easy gifts I can make.

These fabulous Scrappy Bookmarks definitely fit that bill. Terrie has put together a great tutorial with lots of photos.

If you need a refresher course, be sure to check out Nadine’s video tutorial on edge stitching Inchies. It’ll come in handy for doing the edges of the bookmarks too.
