Sailboats from Baby Love

Theresa created this quilt for her grandson

in Kentucky!

She hand delivered the quilt so she will be missed.

But, she'll be back next week

ready to quilt for you!

Use 2 charm packs from Pure

to create this baby boy quilt.

Mark a line diagonally from one pack and stitch 1/4" on each side of the line then cut on the line to create two half square triangles. Stitch in rows oblong or square for your preference!

The rose cuddle minky is SOOOOO soft
you must stop by for a
touchy feely!



From the left over backing you can create a snuggly!
I had enough to make 4 just
square up backing scrap and stitch
ric-rac on all sides
make sure to stitch ric-rac to the cotton side first
then place right sides together
leaving an opening to turn right side out!



Great for the car seat

or sunggly up for a nap!



Stop by and pick up a kit for the Charm quilt
quick and simple
or pick up the book for your sailboat quilt.
Both a must have!

samples of snacks in the shop.

San Diego Pez Tote

SAN DIEGO

Well, what could be better than a room with a view,

cool ocean breeze and good food?

Remember it's not all fun and games.

Working at the San Diego Quilt Show

always is an adventure.

Meet Mingo...

I met Mingo about a year and half ago at

a quilt show; he is my most unique friend!

He is a vegan

(although I slipped him a sugar cookie from the shop)

as I watched him lick his fingers

I reminded him he cheated...

not an organic treat and definitely not vegan...Haha!

The next day he shared a treat with me.....

Make a guess?

Now the work begins..

While not busy selling I was stitching!

Here is my project I created!

SNOW WHITE AND THE 7 DWARFS
A pez collection

This idea could be used for any

little collection of characters.

Make little pockets and places to store treats or figures.


I cut two pieces from different prints 8 1/2 x 21 one for the front and one for the back.

The pocket I cut 9x 18 adjust depending on how many pockets. I folded in half so pocket opening would be on the fold. On each end press 1/4" and top stitch in place lining up bottom seam on the inside fabric piece with right sides facing up. Stitch pockets depending on width I stitched 2" apart for the dwarfs and the center a little larger for Snow White.

For the ruffle I cut 4 strips 2 1/2"x WOF. Stitch continuous and press in half right side out. Use a gathering stitch and gather then pin in place. Stitch to right side of inside print keeping the raw edges lined up. Make your TIES by cutting one strip 6 1/2" x WOF. Cut in half and press all sides 1/4" note: you won't have to press the end you attach in the seam. After pressing 1/4 seams bring to line up and top stitch to finish the two ties. Center on each side of bag and stitch in place. If you want to make a pocket to hold a book or the refill candy make and attatch to the front of the tote. Line up right sides making sure the tie is not in the seam and stitch together leaving about 4 inches at the bottom to turn and hand stitch closed. You could use a stabilizer if desired. I didn't have any so I didn't use it.

AND NOW THE FOOD

don't worry there was no shortage of good food....

Thank Heavens I'm not vegan or organic.

Try Miguels in Coronada if you are in the area.

THE HAT

locations all over California

if you like pastrami

this is the place for you!
