Little bags for granddaughters

 

I made some bags for my granddaughters. A Lay Flat Storage Bag from SewCanShe.com for Julia. I thought she could use it to store items for her sewing machine that she got for her birthday.  I also made some zip bags (humbug and other designs) for Easter gifts for Iris and Sonja.

Lake loft quilts, pillowcases and labels


 

This fabric evokes fond memories for me of vacations at Lake Chelan at Pleasant Beach Resort. There was a high dock where we would lay out sunbathing and jump in when we got hot. I made these two quilts to be used at the lake in the loft, complete with coordinating pillowcases and machine embroidery labels. This is a UFO from 2018.

Machine embroidery nativity for Shirley


I was inspired by Facebook posts of this machine embroidery design. I thought it would be a nice gift for Shirley for Christmas, 2024. So I'm ready early! The design is from Embroidery Library. If I stitch it again, I think I would move the stars up higher in the sky.
