A Wee Bit Of Sewing…and Tutorials

Last w002eek I put this cute Xmas package runner together, did simple cross hatching and today I put the binding on.  It’s from the book  Christmas Favorites by 61F5w3RAwdL__SL500_AA300_Nancy

 

Halvorsen.  Isn’t that cover quilt cute.?  It’s on my to do list .  I have the fabric and decided it would be a project for next year, but since it’s National Sewing Month maybe I will start now..hmmmm!

Such a cute Paper Holly Garland, and sewn on the machine too!!  Sinead has a tutorial here at The Hybrid Chick.

No plans for us for Labor Day…just relaxing (oh and sewin001g).  Our weather is still hot and humid, but the sky today was just about as blue as I have ever seen it here.  Come on Fall, I know you are lurking out there somewhere.  Happy week friends!

Those little packages are so darn cute! Love the soap pouch! You had the same sky we had yesterday...I said the same thing to Andy, don't think I've ever seen it that blue. Too hot here to do anything but SEW!

Your present runner is really pretty. I want to do some present blocks. I like all your tutorial links and I so hope to get a project done this month.
