Teapot Pouch

This is a pouch that I made from a free tutorial  for Splendid Notions Pouch by Charise Creates

I gave this to my sister as a Christmas gift. She lives in another state from me so it was easy enough to mail.
Inside has this cute green print and 2 slip pockets.

This was also on my Q4 Finish Along List so I am linking to Q4 Finish Along at Clover and Violet.

Christmas Frivol

Finished this Christmas table covering. 



This was #5 on my Q4 Finish Along List I'm liking how it turned out and used it on my end table during Christmas.



I quilted a cross hatch so the quilting was done pretty quickly.


This is Frivol #10. I guess I got suckered in by the cute tins.

 I only needed 1 yard of backing and I've had this Riley Blake Chevron print in my stash for quite a while. I thought it fit nicely for the back. I barely squeaked out the binding from a fat quarter.

Finished Quilt

Finally finished this quilt for my Mom. This is a quilt I've been working on since Spring. I really enjoyed piecing it. The blocks were done with strip piecing and I quilted straight lines at 1/4". I'm pleased with how it turned out. 





I pieced a label from some leftovers. It turned out cute. The backing is all this pretty yellow print that I didn't even realize had little birdies on it. 

The binding is done on the bias and my sister-in-law thought it looked like Juicy Fruit. This was my #1 Finish  on my Q4 Finish Along.


My cat, Lucky, decided to check it out.

One Monthly Goal - November

Here is my One Monthly Goal for November. Unfortunately, my sewing machine is out of commission for the first 2 weeks so my goal has to be small.
Before I took my machine to the Brother store, I finished 2 paper-pieced blocks intended for this pouch. So once I get my sewing machine back, it shouldn't take long to complete the pouch.



Therefore, my OMG for November will to be complete this pouch. I am planning on using it for a Christmas gift. Linking up with  Elm Street Quilts - OMG November
