    Question Besides Quilts & Bags

    Hi!

    I want to make something other then Quilts and Tote Bags. Do you have any idea? I guess you call this blocked. ;-)

    Well, this is still a bag........but, I made over 100 bags for Christmas presents. Quick. Easy. Beautiful. And you do not HAVE to use Christmas fabric. I got tired of throwing away all that paper. I wonder if you could find a pattern for quick vests. When I was younger I loved to wear a long sleeved white shirt with a vest.

    I went on the Husquavarna Viking site and found a free pattern for a scottie dog pillow that I have made 3 of. They are perfect for stash. Also bought a pattern to make kindle covers, ipads etc. Haven't made one yet, but anxious to do one.

    Oh, I forgot to tell you, that I made a change purse for my big purse, and a holder for my computer flash drives.

    There are plenty of potential projects for you to do. Recently I put aside a quilt that was giving me a bit of difficulty to finish. I decided to do a matching jacket, neck warmer, and hat out of the same fleece fabric-black with hand block style butterflies. I finished that project and will return to the quilt in a couple of days-refreshed and ready to tackle the problems I had putting the blocks together correctly.
