MONDO BAG

 When i was on my Hawaiian cruise a few years ago I purchased this kit to make a shopping bag for a trip. When I read the instructions I felt it would be too big and cumbersome to take on trip. I have another trip I’m taking with same wardrobe colors (cream and tan) and decided it would be great. We’re visiting lots of quilt shops and I will need a shopping bag. Plus all the other quilters and store owners will ask me if i made myself and I can answer yes.

The pattern called for soft and stable interfacing which would make the bag a lot stiffer and cumbersome. So I used a lightweight interfacing and I can fold down to almost nothing.

Sunflower Wall Quilt


 This was a pattern I purchase a few years ago and decided to finally make it. I had three small wall hanging patterns of sunflowers for laundry room and got busy with other projects and never made. Put a cute little bee pin on it.

Soirée



 Tilda’s World new fabricline, Songbird, are the fabrics used. The pattern, Soirée, was free from Tilda. I added black crystals for the eyes and pearls for earrings. I love the way tildas quilts are quilted and usually follow that suggestion.
