Bag Jr

This is a smaller version of the bag in the last post. I make a smaller version of all my bags so my Princess can have one... she likes bags as much as I do. This is another denim one with plenty of machine embroidery on it. She wanted pink and purple hearts. She got 1 pink, 2 purple, 1 green and 1 rainbow. And a huge yellow button to close it with. She loves it! :)

ATC

I have a new addiction.. the ATC. An ATC is an Artist Trading Card. I am not an artist. I enjoy trying to be creative though. This is my first set, sent out to 6 people from this online group. I have made a couple of other sets and there are 2 more waiting for the finishing touches and another 2 in the pipeline. I like to make these between projects. They are quick and easy and look nice too.. then I send them out as soon as they are done. But others don't. I have only received 2 cards. One from each set. The others will come sooner or later. It is rather exciting and I get some nice things in the mail that dont cost a lot to do and I havent bought. I guess it is a bit like stash-busting because I use a lot of what I have on hand though there are a few little touches that are bought. These purple ones are 90% stash. The buttons were bought. ah well..

Colour Magic.. !

This is the end result from yesterday. Some beautiful purples and a to-die-for pink and a bright, fresh green. I still have to take a pics of 2 more pieces, the one from the baggie and the one from the 'drip tray'.

I was looking for a 'perfect' pink colour to do The Princess a ballerina quilt, but I think these are just perfect. Funny how our ideas change and evolve. I may even have to dye some more to make borders and backing! Now wont that be a hassle..

... not :)
