Sewing Sunday

I am finishing my first week with a sewing machine that actually works. Today I finished a wallet that is really cute. I used the Atkinson Designs Cash and Carry pattern. I find the patterns they publish are very easy to follow. I am giving a wallet away to a lucky follower next Sunday. See below for details on this fun give-a-way.

I also got some work done on a lap quilt top that I have been working on. It's funny how I decided on my color placement, but didn't envision the finished top like this at all. Turns out I love the color pattern that this ended up being.

Now for the fun stuff:

To win the wallet I am giving away follow me on this blog and post a comment below. I would love to hear from y'all. The drawing will be held Sunday April 12 th 6 p.m. CST.

Quilt-A-Longs

I am super excited about 2 quilt-a-longs that I am participating in this month. One is the Spring Quilt-a-long hosted by Chris of Frecklemama at Above All Fabric. We'll be making an adorable quilt and a bag. Heres the fabric I am going to use



The second quilt-a-long is Patchwork Squared Modern Soldis Quilt-a-long. This is my first foray into the world of modern quilting and I am very excited about it. I chose browns, rose and slate blue for this quilt.

If you are participating in either of these quilt-a-longs or if you are in other ones, I would love to hear from you. You can leave me a comment below.
