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.
Several months ago I was asked if I could make a t-shirt quilt for a friend who lost her husband a couple of years ago. She showed up with a laundry basket full of t-shirts. She wanted a Queen size quilt but lives in Florida so we didn't want it to be too heavy. We went through the t-shirts to prioritize the ones she really wanted in the main quilt and said I could do what I wanted with the rest and the quilt pattern was totally up to me. Well not only did we end up with what turned out to be more like a King size quilt but 2 lap quilts and a pillow! I used every t-shirt including any logos or images that were on the sleeves or pockets. I used the lightest batting I could find and I'm so happy with how they came out!!!
The pictures aren't the best but I did the best I could with all of the rainy days we've been having and they needed to make their way to Florida this week. So here we are, the last several months of sewing.
