With the awesome party and sewing time also came our swaps. Since the gifts have already been got, I can show you what I took.
I made a pillow using this tutorial from Allison over at Cluck Cluck Sew, which Anna from Noodlehead featured on her blog a couple of weeks ago. It was super quick and easy, and is really graphic and beautiful. I need to make myself a couple!!!
I also made a pin cushion from some of the scraps & included these flat-head quilting pins with yellow flowers to match the thread. I love this vintage glass button in the center.
Pin cushions are super fast and easy to make, and are a great way to use up scraps. Hmmm, maybe a tute will be forthcoming??? I wouldn't be telling you anything a quick Google search wouldn't reveal, but what the hell. I never said I was original anyway. :)
I got an awesome and verrrrrrry glittery ornament and a huge, gorgeous bag that will forever and ever, amen, be my quilting/current project tote bag to carry all of my hooplah to my guild's Sunday Sews. Winner winner, chicken dinner.
Tomorrow I will post my Sew Mama Sew Giveaway Day! I will ship internationally, so be there or be square!
xoxo,
