OK gals... let's see your sewing projects!

My latest is Mikey's quilt...

Those colors look great together.! Great job, as usual.

He is so adorable, Triss.

The quilt looks fantastic!

Thank you! He is pretty darn cute!

The tic tac toe board and bean bag markers. (I have not snipped or washed it yet)

That is really cute, Triss. Would be a good GS project, I'd think too!

Triss · « **Reply #6 on:** Aug 11, 2010, 06:12:05 PM »

Oh yes, it sure would be. Each of the squares for the board is 6". I used 9 jean and 9 flannel ones. The squares for the markers were 4" squares. I used about 1/4 cup of pinto beans in each bag and made 10 for the set, 5 each jean and flannel. That should give you an idea of what you may need supply wise for your girls if you decide to do it.

Thanks!! And I love that you used pinto beans!!

Triss · « **Reply #8 on:** Aug 11, 2010, 06:27:41 PM »

They are cheap and easy to come by.

Jessica · « **Reply #10 on:** Aug 11, 2010, 07:41:59 PM »

I like it!

Jessica · « **Reply #12 on:** Aug 11, 2010, 08:22:20 PM »

This one shows the colors a little better.

Jessica · « **Reply #13 on:** Aug 11, 2010, 08:23:50 PM »

Actually, that looks black. It is chocolate brown.

Jessica · « **Reply #14 on:** Aug 11, 2010, 08:25:41 PM »

Tina · « **Reply #15 on:** Aug 11, 2010, 08:45:41 PM »

Awesome! That is a cute little bag!

Jessica · « **Reply #16 on:** Aug 11, 2010, 08:47:52 PM »

Thank you. I like it. I see myself making lots more and I think they will go faster now that I know how to do it all. They can be used for anything really.

landofoz · « **Reply #17 on:** Aug 11, 2010, 09:41:42 PM »

Is it lined, Jessica? Your fabric is beautiful!!

bayou girl · « **Reply #18 on:** Aug 11, 2010, 09:50:27 PM »

that is awesome jess! the pillows are good too.

you know sarah loo, i made bean bags in gs, but not a tic tac toe board. we did make sit upons.

Triss · « **Reply #19 on:** Aug 11, 2010, 11:21:02 PM »

Love that fabric Jessica. The bag is really cute.

Jessica · « **Reply #20 on:** Aug 11, 2010, 11:25:20 PM »

The bag is lined, Sarah. It is lined and interfaced. Is that what you call it?

Thank you everyone. I made the pillows first and decided that I loved the fabric so much that I would make the bag out of the same.

I think you all make me look sick when I try to sew...

Jessica · « **Reply #22 on:** Aug 11, 2010, 11:36:42 PM »

Dianna, my sewing lines aren't all straight and I am a little slow yet but I'm hoping that persistence pays off.

landofoz · « **Reply #23 on:** Aug 11, 2010, 11:38:24 PM »

It does, Jess, I'm proof of that. No one taught me to sew and I'm not doing too shabby now...

Tina · « **Reply #24 on:** Aug 11, 2010, 11:39:56 PM »

Absolutely no one begins sewing at an expert level, Dianna. And even as a experienced sewer I have made so many errors. Like putting a zipper in backwards so the pull was on the inside of a dress. My daughters friend wore that dress for her Halloween thing anyway. I am no expert but it can be fun to create something anyway.
