New sewing project and other stitchy updates and a finish!

I really wanted a cute project bag to take on vacation. My mom gave me the main fabric years ago. It was leftover from a pillow blanket she made many years ago. I had the perfect fabric to go with it and off I went.  I made the large bag, a small zipper pouch, thread catcher, project mat and wrist keychain (not pictured).  Tangled progress. This is at  72.16% complete. That's 197,210 stitches down 76,070 stitches to go And I have a finish!  My travel project is complete! My Stained Glass Purple Rose is complete. It has been on several adventures but finally it's done.  This is 27,783 stitches. Started 13 Jun 2025 and finished 13 July 2026.

Getting into the holiday spirit

I've hung this beauty on the only wall that it fits on without the bottom row being hidden 😀 All of these blocks are from the 2019 Fandom In Stitches Rankin and Bass quilt along (http://www.fandominstitches.com/search/label/rankinbassqal).  Obviously I selected all of the Rudolph characters for my quilt but, there are SO many more blocks for you to chose from including other Rudolph characters. It was just getting so big I had to stop somewhere. 

The only change I made on mine was I printed the pattern for Clarice in a mirrored image so she would be facing Rudolph. I also changed to title block which is designed to be a square block. I just spaced it out to fit across the top of my quilt. If I had it to do over I would space it out a bit differently. I hope you like it!


Blocks used:
  • Santa
  • Mrs. Claus
  • Fireball
  • Hermie the Elf
  • Bumble
  • Yukon Cornelius
  • Snowman Sam
  • Girl Elf
  • Rudolph
  • Clarice
  • Head Elf
  • Dolly
  • Bird That Swims
  • Polk A Dot Elephant
  • King Moonracer
  • Charlie-In-The-Box
  • Clown 
  • Plane That Can't Fly
  • Pistol That Shots Jelly
  • Title Block

Adventures In Raw Edge Applique

So I tried something new, raw edge applique. In hindsight I should have started with a more simple pattern. But I loved this pattern and knew my daughter would absolutely love it. Here is a link to the first video in the series https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7iigK0KV3-w I loved learning this technique and will incorporate it in some projects in the future. Lisa is amazing at explaining different ways to implement this technique. I highly recommend checking out her channel!
