Christmas Table Topper

I finally completed my "simple" Christmas table topper. I had trouble quilting it because my machine would not cooperate. My husband helped me level the quilting frame, and the machine worked like a dream.

Taking a picture of my quilts is a challenge. My favorite place to take a picture is my front porch. I like the sunshine.

Oops! Give credit where credit is due -- this quilt was made from two Moda "Crazy Eights" charm pack and idea came from ModaBakeShop. For the white I am using a sheet from IKEA--which is another story. No IKEAs around Mississippi, but I found one in Atlanta. An IKEA store is a pretty amazing place.

My Latest Project

This is my latest project. Hope I enjoy my homemade purse. I really added lots of pockets and I think I will love that. This is an interesting bag because it has an removeable tote. That made the construction more time consumming. The verdict is still out on whether I will like this or not. I did learn quite a few things and hopefully if I do this again, it will be easier. The tote measures 12" x 10" x 5".
