Zipper Bag from a Vintage Quilt

October 3, 2015 By Faith Leave a Comment

Of the two quilts my friend asked me to repurpose, one was a wedding ring pattern. The former colorful patches that made up the wedding ring were almost totally destroyed leaving the white space of the quilt the most intact.

Some of the pattern around the edges was still good enough to use and because I wanted to showcase the patches,

I decided to make a small project – a zipper bag.

(Re) Purposed Sewing

October 3, 2015 By Faith 2 Comments

When I decided to take the challenge to Write 31 Days, I had to consider what topic I was going to cover. The challenge is to write about one subject. My first thought was sewing but that is a very broad subject; I knew I had to narrow it down. The answer came from a good friend of mine – (Re)Purposed Sewing.

Brown quilt (1)

Hello, fellow quilters. Thought I would pop in to show you another brown quilt top that I had completed in the early spring.  As I mentioned in this post, I had a lot of browns in my stash for making quilt tops for our Prayer Quilt Ministry. On this top, I used a fair amount of browns while throwing in some orange along the way – a perfect quilt for fall.

Celebrating America’s Birthday

June 29, 2015 By Faith 2 Comments

 

Scrappy American flag decor

In honor of the upcoming Independence Day holiday, let’s celebrate with a weeks worth of patriotic inspiration. I’m getting a little scrappy for today’s project – as in scrap wood, fabric scraps, and some leftover (aka scrap) paint.

I came across a square piece of plywood in my wood pile that I painted blue and stamped with some stars in white. I drilled a few small holes across the bottom of the wood, tore some red and white fabric scraps to length and inserted them through the drilled holes affixing with a lark’s head knot. I drilled a couple of larger holes at the top corners and fed a piece of rope through knotting it in the front to use as a hanger. Done. Quick and easy.

Join me again tomorrow for another easy project. Happy Birthday, America!!!

xoxo, Faith
