new project



This is a paper pieced double wedding ring pattern. None of the rings are attached to anything yet. I just wanted to see how the rings might look. This will be a wall hanging eventually. Each ring took about 45 minutes to piece and press. Originally double wedding ring quilts were appliqued, not pieced, according to the lady I got the pattern from. I want to try hand applique - for a summer project. The rings will have more overlap so a football shape will appear between the side of each ring. Supposedly!

fabric coil bowls


I made these following the tutorial from: www.craftsylish.com/item/33825/how-to-sew-a-fabric-bowl

Larger one was second and looks better, I think. Fun to do

A Peek into my world
