A joy to work on....Wedding Invitations!

My son's fiance' on right and her mom helping me with the invitations to the BIG day. :) I love these gals! We worked assembly-line style on these lovely handmade wedding invitations (She choose the basic styles and I designed them for her with her input).


Here is what they look like all finished up! WhooHoo! I love the colors she choose. The bugger of the whole project was getting the 1/2 inch ribbon through the heart charm's tiny 1/8 inch holes! But we did it x 120! GO US!!


Ok, Ok, I am trying to be in more photos.... :) So here I am hard at work. My DIL-to-be took this one of me working on the invitations. My own daughter is beside me at my right working on her own scrapbooking pages. We all had such a good time that day and we got the invites all DONE! (I had already stamped all the envelopes.) I have already finished the Save the Date cards, envies, maps, and the thank you cards and envies. Now onward to the RSVPs and gift brunch open house invitation cards!!!

All in all a joyous day's work!

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...
