Rainbow Clutch

This is my completed Rainbow Clutch that I've sewn from Anna Graham's book Handmade Style. It is shown on the front of the book. I really like it and I plan on using it at an upcoming wedding in October. 

I love navy blue and I picked out Liberty lawn that I've had in my stash for the pieced front. Linking this finish to Bag It at Elm Street Quilts. You can link up your bag,too. They have great tutorials to follow for bags. This was my 2nd completion on the Finish Along Q3 It is #8 on my list here:Q3 FAL.I did not have a photo when I made the list. My list for the last quarter will be short and sweet, all with photos. Because I don't get all of these projects done.

Finished Star/Log Cabin Quilt

Finished one of my Q3 goals.  Original post was here: Finish Along List Q3 This is my Star/Log Cabin quilt. I followed a pattern from Fons & Porter "Love of Quilting" magazine, Jan/Feb 2015.


I'm pleased with how it turned out. And I'm pleased that it's finished! This is a gift for my Aunt who's been asking for a quilt. It's a nice throw size for the couch. Since she's always lived in an apartment I thought that would be the best size. I quilted this in a cross hatch going first through the stars.

Hipbag Hybrid

I'm enjoying my new Hipbag Hybrid. This is a pattern from Studio Kat Designs - Hipbag Hybrid. I liked this design because I can wear it across my shoulder, or I can wear it on my hip - like the old "fanny packs". I can, also, clip it on my bike. My husband and I go bike riding and we needed a bag to keep our money and small items in.
