Minky blanket

This is the first time I've sewed with minky fabric. So soft! So... tricky to sew on. I ended up folding strips of gray flannel around the edge and sewing across it with a curving stitch so I didn't have to try to manipulate the minky directly. It will make a nice small blanket for cuddling.

Ravensburger Kitchen Cupboard

This was a 1,000 piece puzzle created by Colin Thompson. It seemed like it would be fairly easy, because of all the little details, but I ended up spending a lot of time staring at the box cover, trying to find the details!

Batik Skirt

Batik skirt with Kona cotton waistband. Not a really good picture - the batiks are much more vibrant than shown here.

I made a mistake when I cut this - I just cut the pieces in half, instead of adding room for the seam. So it ended up tight around the hips. It looks ok though.

Autumn Quilt part 3

Taking a break before crawling around on the floor to pin this and then figure out how to bind and quilt it... the batting is fairly thick and I'm not sure I will be able to get it through my machine. But maybe if I just quilt it around the edges....

Autumn Quilt Part 2

Finished the 36 squares and sewed them together into 9 bigger squares. Next, I'll put these together to make the quilt top. Then I need to finish cutting 36 squares to make the back, decide on a binding, and do the quilting.
