AND THE REST OF THE STORY!!

Here is the completed Sun Bonnet Sue




                                                 and Overall Sam!




Making these quilts was made a lot easier with my Accuquilt Go cutter, the most time consuming part was selecting the fabrics but I think we already discussed that.

Life has been so full here at the Bejeweled House.  My mother comes and stays with me from Friday til after church on Sunday.  I kept Baby Gene this week-end and was in total heaven....as well as my youngest son and his wife who came to visit..

SUNBONNET SUE AND OVERALL SAM


Last night it took me four hours just gathering fabrics, cutting, and fusing the Sun Bonnet Sue to the background fabric.  





Haven't fused the Sams yet.



Here they are here waiting.  My Accuquilt Go made short work of cutting these out.



These are the border fabrics for these quilts.  These two are for twin boy and girl.
I purchased these fabric from Connecting Threads when they had them on sale.  I really do like their fabrics and I especially like it when I can get a good sale.



Made these bowl potholders for a friend.  You can find the patterns online for free or on craftsy.

COME SEE MY BOYS!!

IMG_0675 IMG_0676 IMG_0677 IMG_0678

Don't you just love my boys? That is what I was calling them all day when I was taking them off the machine. Then I thought that I almost have enough boys to put names on these guys and make me a "My boys quilt"..


I almost forgot to tell you, I tried to use old Steam A Seam project scraps, just to save on Steam A Seam and to use up old scraps....So if you are going...hummmm that is how my son dresses without supervision, well....I was just trying to be thrifty (cheap).

I used the Go cutter to cut out the Overall Sam's and Marjorie sent me the embroidery design.

Gene has been working with Marjorie's designs as well, you can see his post here.


You can find Marjorie's embroidery designs here.


Of course, you can find Accuquilt here.
