Kittykill received her package yesterday! I can finally show you the purse that I made to replace the one posted about below. The front pocket is a mini quilt that I stitched to the outside by the binding. Here's a pic of the inside
I also sent her an embroidery floss roll up she wanted. I designed it to work kind of like knitting needle roll ups. I randomly pieced the outside with red and white fabric scraps (don't have a pic of that unfortunately) and embroidered birds and a heart on it.
The inside has a zippered clear pocket for extras, a scissor pocket and needle spot. The part I'm most proud of is the area with the pockets for floss. The sides pieces I used to attach them with aren't uniform, which irritated me when I was done but I was proud of how the rest of them turned out.
I had fun making this crow pillow holding an anatomical heart.
Last but now least, happy 15th birthday (yesterday) to this handsome guy! Here he's with his sis last May before his 8th grade dance. He's almost 3 inches taller now!!
>That's all for now, Happy Spring everyone!! Jenni

HI Jenni
Love your work and you have finished your 4 patches, have not started.

cheers

Jenni, I really like the bag you made and the embroidery floss roll-up. Did you make the designs yourself, or have a pattern?
Amanda, Thanks for the compliments!I designed them myself. I figure out what I need and wing it most of the time. I'm thinking of perfecting the roll up and making a pattern. That's my next goal anyway, to get some patterns going.
I also love the floss rollup, what a clever idea, and i am still quilting my bargello so haven't even started my 4 patches yet so you are way ahead girl, LOL
