This week I sewed up a couple more pouches from the summer Quilts & More issue pattern.
The one on the right I made a little longer and added a bit of velcro for a closure,of the top and moved the elastic for the button down. This pattern is very easy and adaptable so I have been playing around with it some. I did not like the placement of the ribbon wristlet placement,so I moved it into the side seam,and like it much better there.
A while back I cut out some fabric for a few tea wallets. Last night I sewed up two of them.
There are 6 pockets on the inside to hold your tea bags. Great for tossing in your purse,so you always have a nice selection while on the go. Both the tea wallets and the phone pouches are great little scrap busters!
I also found time to make and sew the binding on my Trail of Diamonds table runner this week. I found some 2 1/2" strips of Kona Charcoal and Ice Frappe in one of my scrap bins,I think they compliment the batik fabric nicely!
We are supposed to hit 70 degrees this weekend,and I am pretty excited about that! Have a super weekend :)

Trail of Diamonds table runner
Well,I must have been living under a rock lately! I had not a clue that today was the start of Giveaway Day Week! Hopefully I can put something together before the end of the week...
This morning before heading out to work I snapped off a couple shots of my latest project! Why yes that is snow on my deck,on the 12th of May... The only good thing about spring snow is that it melts off fast :)
As you can see it still needs to be bound,but the quilting is all done! Hoping to finish it this week. Any thoughts on the binding? Should I use solids and make it scrappy,or maybe more batik fabric?
I spent part of my mothers day sewing up this little pouch. The pattern can be found in the summer issue of Quilts & More.
I made mine scrappy :) This is a great little pouch for when you only want to pack the essentials. Everything in the photo fits in the pouch,and you could fit a couple more little items in it too.
Hope you have a great week :)!
