Mid sleeve lounger

Lounger to wear with a yolk,  trim and piping, all colors coordinated using  Jo-Ann's fabrics. Seam binding was made using the same material as the yoke, and the piping I made using a dark purple material.  Floor length. Cool to wear. Sleeves are mid length.

Crazy coasters

Crazy coasters

 
I didn't use a pattern with these coasters, I purchased a templet set off Amazon, cut a backing out of material to match the binding I had made. Cut a lining piece using an old blanket I keep just for doing this.  The front is made using fabric scraps from other things I have made. All material from JoaAnns.  The four coasters are about 9 inches square.

I plan on making more of these as I love using the fancy stitches on my sewing machine and I can make them in any colors or to go with the seasons or holidays.

Napkins

Napkins

 I  needed more napkins and found a cute pattern off the internet ( link below).   I made them for the seasons like Valentines for February and St Patricks for March, etc. I like flowers so for some months I just used flower patterns with a solid backing to match

Coordinating fabrics from Jo-Ann and the pattern idea  was from the internet

Sewing Bed side caddy


I have been making things for my bedroom, from rugs, doilies, pillows, a tablecloth with matching pillow shams. But I wanted a bed side caddy and finally got it done. Below is a picture, I didn't write anything down on how to make it. Rats. lol  Fabrics from Joann's

Popcorn can cover

This is a foot strool I made, no pattern just measured the popcorn can and made it to fit. First the top, and I made two covers for it, one for the can, then one for the bottom of the pillow, and then the top of the pillow. Made the piping out of the same material I used for the can base, turned out pretty I think.

Sewing for my kitchen

I have been sewing for my kitchen, made new curtains for both the door and window, apron, and plastic bag holder to match them. Didn't have a pattern, the darn things cost way to much, so I just take measurements and then made them. The apron and plastic bag holder are in older posts so you can get the pattern links for these free.

Valentine's Day


A friend asked to me make a car valentine for her grandson, this has a pocket in the back to add candy or anything she wants to. I also made my grandson one, the little boys love cars, and this one seems to be smiling right back at them.

Valentine's Day

This is what the grand kids and my nieces are getting for Valentine's Day, there is a pocket in the back so I can put anything I want too in it. I can make them with different sayings like Love, Best Friends, but this one is my favorite. Or I can just make coasters out of them.

Sofa Pillows

I like to sew, and needed some new pillows for my living room sofa. I didn't have a pattern, just starting sewing and cutting, then made the pillow forms to fix the pillows I had sewn.

Plastic Bag Holder

Another Plastic bag holder, this time for a friend, and
is the design that is in the middle, (she collects
tea cups). I made it so that the tablecloth goes down
on to the fabric.
