Vintage Modern Hexagon Quilt

Finally Finished!!

Vintage Modern Hexagon Baby Quilt

Made from half hexagons

33" x 43"

in pinks, reds, aqua and grey

I desided to bind it in a dove grey plain binding

which matches the grey in some of the prints

I don't know if you can see

 but I straight line quilted it in pink

Little peek of the red spotty reverse!

And a better view of the reverse

the grey binding looks great with the red

Stitching close up.

The fabric collection is Vintage Modern by Bonnie & Camile

The binding I used was the second in the pile from the top

a colour I have called medium grey!

Almost the weekend!

Bunting & Pillows

Bunting & Pillows

I have got into scalloped bunting!

after making some for my shelves in the kitchen to go along the shelf edge

I got the bug and they look quite pretty.

I cut the circle out of a full width 5" square

cut in half, sew around the curve, snip the curve (a must on curves!!)

then iron the curved seam open as best you can before ironing flat

otherwise you get that not so curved edge.

And sandwich in between bias binding

Mini red, white & grey garland

What do you prefer?

Now if you are female I guess the stocking garland, as long as each one contains a chocolate

But if you are a boy, pirate bunting is the way to g, but I guess he would like both...

Rag Doll Kit in the Making!

Meet the Gang

I was going to wait until I have received the fabric back before showing you them

but couldn't!

I want to sell ready make dolls and in kits, with cute felt booties and little pillowcase dress or skirt.

The kit still not totally planned! will have this fabric, a little booklet with instructions and a pattern for felt booties, dress & skirt, piece of fabric to make clothing and felt for the booties.

I think the only thing I won't include is the stuffing as this bulks it out...

Can't wait to get some back so I can sew and show you.

They take up 1/2 yard of fabric each.
