Another UFO done!

 Hello!
Today I'm Happy to show you another UFO I finished last year...
I started it several years ago and then as often appen with big projects...I felt tired to work on it and I put it away and then...I completetely forgot about it...

Last year, while I was searching a piece of batting for another project...I've found this in a drower...

I didn't understand immediately wich lost project was it but searching better...I found the pattern too...

I decided to go ahead with it and try to finish it...
Surely I should have done the most part of the work...or so was what I tought...
This is what I did in the past so it seemed to me that...not much extra work was required...
Mmm...totally wrong... LOL...

First I found that I don't like at all that flower basket in the corner with the white background...I really could not remember why I chose the white instead a yellow for example...
So...instead to make the other 3 corners blocks...I put away this one and make other 4...

Then I pieced together some of the blocks in rowsfor the quilting part.
I decided to use the As You Go method because the quilt was big enough to make it difficult to quilt it all together...

Once all the pieces were quilted...I cut all the excess of batting and joined together the whole quilt...

At this point...I've add the backing and sew the binding but I didn't take pics of this...

And...TADAAAA...my beautiful quilt finally was done and he got a special place in my sewing room...

If you ever had UFOs...and if you are a quilter...you surely had...you know the big joy you feel when you finish one of them!

So was for me.

What about you?

Are you working on some UFOs lately?

I'd love to hear from you...

UFO's Fun!!!

Never tought I could have had fun working on my UFO's but...I was totally wrong...

I found these 2 stars blocks  I made several years ago and decided to make something nice with them...

So...started sewing...adding something and tooking away something else...

And this is the result...2 big size mug rugs...colorful, brights and happy...

I'm so satisfied about the result and finally they are no more UFO's but...FINISHED PROJECTS!!!

YAY!!!!

Can't wait to work on the next one...already chose it... ;O)

Are you working on some UFO's too?

Would love to hear from you!

Have a nice week end!!!

Sewing Sunday

Hello my Friends!!!
How are you going?
It's Monday again...the week end unfortunately went away so quickly...
But...I've had a very fun Sunday...
My friend Luciana come here and we spent the whole day sewing these super cute origami bags...

They were really so fun to make...we chose happy and brilliant fabrics and this is the result...

We started sewing one...then...the second one...and it seemed that we really can't stopped sewing them...

Every fabrics we chose gave them a different look and it was amazing to see how they turned out...
They really make pretty gifts...we can fill them with lots of things...make up, accessories, threads needles and fabrics, biscuits, candies...

I think they are perfect for any occasion...change the fabris and fill them with goodies for make a very personalised gift...

We started to fill our Xmas box with these bags and we intend make lots of other cute things from now till December so...when Xmas will come...we will be ready!!!

It's never too early to start with Xmas gifts isn't it? LOL!!!

And finally...yesterday...when my friend left my house...I finished a project that I've started mmm...I really can't remember when but...at least 3 or 4 years ago...

It was another Sunday sewing day and along with my friend we sewed this super cute box...

I sewed it all around and just leave the bottom to sew...

But...this bottom...took me soooooo long  to be done....LOL

Now..it's done and I'm proud of myself LOL!!!

I have tons of other UFO's to sew...we will see what I'll do with them...
So...I wish you all a great week and,,,I'd love to hear from you about what you are sewing or crafting...

A new quilt for my fireplace

Hi!
I started a new wall quilt some months ago and since this morning...it was an UFO left alone on a chair on my sewing room...
I started it thinking that I'd need something new to hang on my fireplace but...as sometimes happens...I start a new project with a lot of enthusiasm and then...I've lost this enthusiasm...on the road...

I started a gazillion of other projects after this...sky over my head is...full of UFO's...LOL!!!!

But this morning...I got up with a renewed enthusiasm, I took my centre medallion and...I start to sew the zig zag around the appliquè!
I worked on it for about 2 hours and I have to say that...I'm happy with the result...

Actually...I've made also some blocks, this will be a wallhanging with autumn colors theme...
In the next days, I'll go ahead working on this project and...please, follow here if you would like to see the final result...

If you would like to post a comment here...you're very welcome...if I know that someone is following my WIP...I surely can't not finish it!!!! LOL!!!!
Thanks!!!
