We are well into my favorite time of the year!
Lots of 'secret' sewing of gifts for family & friends, cooler days, colorful leaves,
hot chocolate! Love it!! :-)
I have been doing a bit of Christmas sewing, and since most everyone on my list reads my blog (Hi Mom!), I won't be able to show you those projects. Luckily, I do have a few other things in the works.
I am making the 12 Minikin patterns by Sara of Sew Sweetness and gearing them toward certain recipients. We have two Harry Potter fans in our family, so this could go a couple places. ;-)
This is the medium size Cotton Candy Pouch. (the pattern comes with small, med & large sizes).
You can find the patterns here~
Yes, there are a set of 12 and it may seem a bit pricey, until you divide it out. Also factor in that Sara is making free videos to those who purchase the patterns, so if a step or technique is new to you, she walks you through it.
I don't have them all printed out yet, but when I do I plan to make a booklet so they are easy to reference and use. Last year my DH purchased a binding machine for me to store my patterns. I love it! I can put all the patterns I plan to take to retreat, in one little booklet. I went to the dollar store and purchased a bunch of index dividers to separate patterns. The nifty thing is that I can also remove them without hurting the binder comb or the patterns and switch them around if I want to take others the next time. ;-) I use a heavy card stock for the back cover. (from my scrapbooking supplies)
That is all for today~
I am knee deep in making binding for 2 quilts I hope to share with you in the future.
Until next time~
Happy Stitchin'!!
