My grandmother (we called her Nanny) hand pieced this around the world quilt top. I'm not sure when she made it, but some of the fabrics in it look pretty old.
I took it to my friends at 3 Stitch Creations and they quilted it for me on their long arm.
I finished it with the binding.
It's beautiful!
Happy Sewing!

It's a New Year!
I know that you know it - I just wanted to tell you again - you're welcome!
So today is the first Sunday in 2013 - and I have done very little sewing in this new year so far. I've been talking about making a new purse for myself - I started outlining my requirements, measurements, etc., and then lost my 'umph', so to speak.
Today I did bind this pink, green and white lap sized quilt. I took it to my friends over at 3 Stitch Creations and they did some quilting magic to it!
It's a lap size - 46 x 58 and it has a green with white polka dots backing and binding.
It will be for sale in my etsy shop once I get some good photos. If you would be interested in purchasing it before I get it listed, contact me through my etsy shop or facebook page or catch me on twitter!
I have a second quilt to bind - it's an around the world pattern (about twin size, I think) that my grandmother hand pieced. It was in some stuff of my mom's and I figured I should get it finished. Maybe one of the nieces will want it someday.
I'm hoping for a busy sewing year, if there's anything you want me to custom make for you - just contact me!
Happy Sewing!
