Thank you for the kind words about the
{ impossible quilt}. My w.i.p. projects are on going and I learn to set up a time to finish it! I work better with a schedule. I made another patchwork this weekend. It was fun to play with new scraps/ colors. I added some new scraps into the bowl and got some new colors. This time, I made a patchwork style wallet. I really like it! It is measured 8"x8" { open flat}. Two large pockets for bills and I added the inner zippered for coins. A few pockets for cards. Lined with {Moda Love print in canvas weight} and Amy Butler's blue print { sorry I don't remember the name of the print} .
I love small project that I can finish over a weekend and additional day or two. It makes me feel more accomplished. I love how
many of you have been playing with your scraps and make your own patchwork
totes,
bags, and
pouches and
lots more ! I love them all. I love how one idea can be expended to many different ideas. I love how you come and stop by each day and just check out this space and keep me company!
so far so GOOD!

DeleteIt looks amazing Chase!!! you seriously should do a tutorial! I might be brave enough to try it then!:)
ReplyDeleteThank you!! It is on your way! I am planning to write a tutorial, but might be a week or so. Hope I will make sense! :) x
DeleteI love small projects too-i have a basket or 2 full of scraps, and may have to try something like this :)
ReplyDeleteI found the best time to play with scraps is when I accomplished some bigger project sewing or later night sewing! I love to see your patchwork style if you make one!! :) x
