Looking back through my photos, I have come to realize that I have sewn a few purple items. However, they really are not current items. In addition, they really are not being used at present. These have been completed in years past. Sarah Goer quilts is hosting a monthly link up and January's link up is Show me something Purple.
This is a wall hanging that I purchased in a kit, from Keepsake Quilting, when I first started quilting. I discovered that I really did not know what I was doing and I didn't particularly care for fusible applique. It sat in a drawer for a while until I finished it. However, it is still not hanging on a wall anywhere. It is Oregano in bloom and I do love oregano plants.
In addition, I have sewn this purple pouch a number of years ago. It was a gift for my Sister-in-law and she did like it at the time. Not sure if she is using it now.
And my final purple item is this bag that I made when I was sewing bags. I have gotten away from sewing bags as much because they chew up a lot of my time. Plus, you cannot just throw them in the washing machine like a quilt.
Seeing this photo reminded me of the trouble I had sewing the top where the spotted fabric meets the binding. I either printed the pattern incorrectly or something because I had to make tiny pleats in order to get it to fit. I did use this for a while, though.
I guess I need to look through my stash and sew some new purple items. Either that or buy some new stash of purples.
I love your small quilt, so pretty. Great purple projects!
