As a final wrap-up to Sew Mama Sew Giveaway Day, I wanted to share with you all the lovely Christmas charm pack that I won! I was waiting to post until the package arrived, but we were away for the holidays so I had to wait until I got back. What a great gift to have this package waiting for us when we got back - thanks to LeighAnne of SleepytimeSewing for the fun giveaway!
I think I will stash these away until next year... still thinking about what I want to do with them. I may use them for a variety of projects and just enjoy having such a great selection of fabrics to choose from - I was thinking of making some mini-quilted stocking ornaments - but maybe I will decide to use them as charm squares in some kind of pattern. The placemat pattern that LeighAnne included in the post is pretty cute, may have to do that or something similar!
I have been enjoying checking out the year-end project mosaics that lots of folks have posted - so many beautiful and creative projects, it is very inspiring! I don't feel like I did a good enough job taking pictures this year (especially since I didn't restart the blog until mid-summer), but this is definitely something I hope to do next year. In the meantime, here is a preview of a tutorial that I am planning to post early next week.
These quilted wine totes were partially inspired by these BuiltNY wine totes
I basically used this tutorial, except that I realized the 1/2" bias tape maker
I love using wine totes to "wrap" gifts in:) Yours are fabulous and I am loving the fabrics you chose for them.
ReplyDeleteCongrats on winning such fabulous fabrics:) It is so cool to win things- anything really:)
Wow, these are super impressive! But I would expect nothing less...
ReplyDeletethanks for posting your tute on your wine tote. I made my own version today using yours as inspiration. Details are on my blog.
