quilting - well sort of...

I'm going to take a stab at quilting. Well, my version of quilting.

I've got this fabric from a bag of flour that we bought at the Eco Stewardship Fair in April. Kind of sounds like something a modern Laura Ingalls would say!

I digress... I've got this bag, the logo is quite appealing and I think I may try my hand at appliqué-ing it onto the middle of a fairly plain background. I'll post a photo once it's finished and when we buy a new camera (to replace the one Ashwyn dropped last week).

I hope this gets you thinking about new uses for everyday things.

Just picked up some cool new fabrics

I just picked up some more fabric - have a look! I feel like there are more masculine selections.

Email me (knuffelkids@hotmail.com) or call me as soon as you've selected a fabric because I only have enough of each for one blanket - all of my handmade blankets are completely unique!



TAKEN! Retro grey

Paisley:

TAKEN! Jungle

TAKEN: This will make a 2nd time mom very happy to have something unique for her new baby.

TAKEN! Brown circles:

Blue floral:


Note: if you're trying to get an idea of the scale of the designs on the fabric, I scan it to reflect an 8 1/2" x 11" sheet. So as an example - the elephant in the jungle print is about 4" tall.

Fabric choices

Here are the fabrics I have on hand right now (as of May 17, 2009).

If you see one that tickles your fancy, email me (knuffelkids@hotmail.com) and I will earmark it for your blanket.

If you were thinking of something different, also email me and I can have a look for you so that you get what you want.

(If the swatches look a little wonky to you, none of the them have any flaws and it may be just a scanning of fabric issue.)
