Windows Patchwork Pillow

So now that Christmas is long gone I can show you one of the things I made for my little brother who works for Microsoft. 

He's a programmer. 

Total geek.

So he needed some geekery.

Have you noticed the new Windows logo?

It looks a little something like this pillow. 

:) 

These scrappy log cabin blocks could be a really really really addictive way to use up scraps too. 

My goodness they were fun. 

Teeny Baby Dresses

My new little niece Kylie was born almost 2 weeks ago now and was only 35 weeks 5 days and weighed in at 5 lbs 14 oz. and 17 inches.

She's soooooo cute! And squishy looking! I'm very jealous that I can't hold her and am travel restricted.

Anyway, I whipped up two "itty bitty baby dresses" for her in a few of the beautiful Liberty Art Fabrics Bloomsbury Collection fabrics.

Free pattern can be found here.

I mean, she is "itty bitty."

But even then they're still too big for her!!

So cute. I need another girl... 

So I did some "birthing" last night.

Lots of it.

Thankfully of the sewing variety and not the baby variety!!

Flipping little coasters right side out does remind one of childbirth though.

Disturbing.

It was time again to make the forty coasters for an annual retreat group with the theme "Stinky Feet Retreat" this year.

Hilarious, huh?

So I went with high heels and coordinates.

I hope they like them and that they have a great retreat.

So nice.

Sharing that is. 

I love getting pictures from people of what they have made with my patterns. 

This one was particularly gorgeous and different in a non-Christmas finish so I thought I should share it with you.

The pattern is "Dash Away All" found here.

Feel free to go leave Brea, a new-to-quilting artist, some love in her Etsy shop. 

Arcadia... Is this my 5th?

Let's see...

There was this one.

And this one.

Oh, and that one too.

Yes, and another over there.

Even some coasters.

I've loved this fabric line for a LONG time. 

Fabric line is Arcadia by Sanae for Moda.

I've been hoarding some quarter yard cuts and additional yardage. 

LOVE the backing print.

And especially those nested circles.

This one ended up being a large baby or small lap quilt size at 42.5" x 47".

In the shop. 

Birds and Berries Part 2

I almost forgot to post this one. 

It's going under the tree for my little who for Christmas.

I think it will be a great little throw blanket for her future bedroom.

We move Dec. 22 - yeah, just in time to make Christmas MORE crazy. 

The fabric is Birds and Berries by Lauren and Jessi Jung for Moda.

I did exclude the purple colorway from the rest of the line. 

Oh I'm getting more excited for Christmas just looking at this!!! :D 

Cuzco

I've had a BLAST sewing this one. 

Such vibrant colors. 

A rainbow rectangular prism.

Fabric line is Cuzco by Kate Spain for Moda.
Love.
Makes me wish one of these babies was going to be a girl.

In the shop. SOLD.
