Just a little something on the sewing machine... :)

Here I am with our dear little cousin in her baptismal gown...Yeah us! Take a look at her gown...

Just wanted to share photos of a baptismal gown I sewed last month for a little baby cousin of ours. The family wanted an heirloom quality gown blending two ready-made patterns and using a certain style trim. I love to sew and can do this specialty kind of garment sewing. It was a joy to create this for little Sasha. I told her mom that every stitch help a prayer for Sasha's happy future.


I love sewing almost as much as I love scrapbooking, so you KNOW I love it! :)

A Spiral Christmas Tree Skirt

Image
Here you see a  gift I just finished this morning for my daughter. It is a spiral bargello style quilted tree skirt. I sewed on it all Saturday and Sunday this weekend and just had the ties to sew on this morning. It's an early Christmas gift kind of like the one I made for my son and his wife a few weeks ago .  T his spiral design my daughter chose also uses a 10 degree wedge ruler but is about 1/3 more time consuming than the randomly placed 5 inch charm square wedge style because you have to spend more time getting the strip formation right.  There was a SULKY brand online tut o rial and pattern for a single color repeat but I liked the slower color change better seen in the t wo photos below . I think the spiral design is enhanced by the more gradual color change. I saw these two spirals below on Google Images but they only led me to p icture link s and not a tutorial. I ha d to devise my own from looking at that pictures.   http://www.backyar...
