Here is the Patch Me If You Can bag from Tammy Tadd Designs.......modified! I took 3 inches out of the body width of the bag. An 18 1/2" wide bag is just too big for me. And of course, I use prequilted fabric for the exterior, not patchwork. I like several of the design elements… Continue reading Neon Forest Patch Bag

Check It Out…..Literally
One more project done! A sweet girl graduated from high school, and although I don't see her very often any more, I felt she needed a special gift.

T-shirt quilt finally finished
I FINALLY finished the sorority T-shirt quilt for a customer. I hope the person receiving it as a Christmas gift is not disappointed. It turned out beautiful but I have to admit it was a struggle. Most t-shirts quilts just have between 20-25 panels in the top with plain fabric borders and this one was… Continue reading T-shirt quilt finally finished
