Mini Purse

I made a mini purse for Scotland so I wouldn't need to carry around a large purse. I love bright, fun prints, as you might have guessed from my camera bag I made. Anyway, thought that I would add this to my blog as well. This is the first time that I have made a purse or camera case, and I think I did a good job.

Camera Bag

Before Matt and I leave for our trip to Scotland, I wanted to make a fun camera bag that was small and light. I've discovered that I can make it about half the size that it currently is. I think this bag would also work well for make-up, personal items, etc.

A Farm Animal Quilt

I'm looking forward to this quilt as I will be doing it by hand! I haven't made one since June when I made one for my nephew Joshua. That quilt will be posted when I find a picture. The thing about hand stitched quilts is that you can take them anywhere to work on and you are not stuck in the house like you are with the block quilts. I'm aiming to have this quilt done by May 5th or sooner. We shall see how busy I am over the next 3 weeks.

Lily's quilt

I made this quilt quite some time ago for my niece Lily, all by myself. It is not the greatest quilt but it was a labour of love. One day I plan on making a better quilt for her.

The newest quilt

My goal for this snow day is to complete a baby quilt. So far I have put it together so I can trim the excess material and batting. Since it is a fairly small baby quilt, I believe that I can have a picture of it up come supper time!
It came to me that every time I work on a quilt, I wish I could stay home and be a quilter for a living. It's not a possibility right now, but I hope that in the near future it can become a reality.

This is the quilt that I made for my nephew Kaelen. Doesn't it look comfy?
