String Quilt

I took two pictures hanging both ways. Love, love how this turned out. Heavy though with backing, batting, foundation of muslin and then the strings on top. I put a gray 2.5 inch strip to break up each row. Trust me when I say, I didn't even put a dent in the string scrap bag.

A little left over screen from the bag in the post below and I made this little bag. I stuffed grocery bags in it so you could see the screen. The inside fabric is witches.

Finished this also this week. My bag for swimming made with orange pet screen.

This is a 2003 kit from Connecting Threads. I donated it to my quild for a raffel yesterday. It was one of those "why did I buy this" items. We all have them.

Small Quilt Swap #1

I am in a small quilt swap and this is what I made for my partner.  Hope she likes it.  It had to be bigger than 22 inches, this one measured 23.5.  Now I want to make one in a bigger size for myself.  Actually this is the fourth small quilt I made.  The other three are done in various stages.  I could not decide.  

Early Halloween Wallhangings

My daughter is a Halloween nut.  She sent me home from Vegas with these two panels and the fabric for the borders.  I mitered the borders so the little table topper is from the leftover strips and is reversible. 

Mystery Table Topper

This was a mystery I completed today from here.  I saw it in my email this morning and decided to try it.  There were only five clues, so I thought it can't be that hard.  I got to cutting and pulling fabric, all from my stash.  I like how it turned. out and the shape of it. That is actually a brown fabric next to the gingerbread squares not charcoal as it appears.

I completed this yesterday, Sunday, July 18th.  I am really happy how it turned out!!!!
