Some of the Guild ladies have decided to work on a group project one week a month during our Tuesday morning sewing bee. This pumpkin was one of our September options.

This is the first piece I’ve finished with my new machine. I’m happy with everything it does – the zig-zag satin stitch, the free motion quilting, and the straight line stitching.

UPDATE: This went to Kathryn

 

 

I knew that the theme for Alex’s 4^th birthday party was Pirates. I went to the book store looking for a book about pirates, and found one called Captain Flinn and the Pirate Dinosaurs (see Grandma Reads). To go along with the book I made this Pirate/Dinosaur placemat.

Door Hanger #1

I combined one of my March Craftsy blocks of the month with one of my May Craftsy blocks of the month to make a hanger for the door of one of the residents at Olive Devaud, our senior’s care home.

 

 

 

Door Hanger #2

I combined the second of my May Craftsy blocks of the month with one of my April Craftsy blocks of the month to make a second door hanger.
