It’s Day 6 of the Sew Good Blog Hop today! I cannot lie, I love big quilts more than anything. But sometimes, I like to make small things, too. Today I’m going to share two small projects My Mom & I have made using the Sew Good fabric collection by Deborah Fisher of Fish Museum & Circus for Windham Fabrics.
First up is my needle roll. I’ve begun exploring embroidery this year, and I decided to make the Roadrunner Needle roll from Sue Spargo. I chose my favorite print from the collection, the pincushion ladies on blue. I paired it with Boundless binding in green, and decided on the polka dots as the displayed pattern.
The button closure, though, is the highlight of the piece for me. I love Deborah’s handmade buttons, and it was nice to find a place to put one that I will look at every day. I wrote more about my needle roll here, if you want to check out the embroidery aspect.
The next little project is a little pouch for my thread spools. My Mom made this adorable little bag for me, and I use it all the time. (Mom is a bag master – she is always making interesting bags). She also enjoys helping me use up my scraps, which is awesome. This little guy is a mini rice bag, complete with these fancy little ribbon holders, which are called Koki Clips. This link will pop up a coupon code for $5 off at Snuggly Monkey, courtesy of Mom. Happy shopping!
