New projects

I  started new projects this weekend:0  Never mind all the WIP's and UFO's sitting around.  I was in the mood to pull out the purse fabric bins.  Yes I keep those separate from the quilting fabrics even though technically they are the same fabrics.   It is just that I bought these specifically to make purses.   I cut 3 of one kind and 6 of another.  These are laid out for me to start sewing these parts together, and then they receive quilting before the assembly process begins.  These are from a pattern I designed but have never written as it is labor intensive to write it as a pattern.



 And here are the linings, inside pockets, and the foam core board covers.  The handles and ties didn't get in the picture.  So with 9 cut you would think you would see a dent in that bin wouldn't you.  NOPE not even a dimple size dent, how does this happen!!  I guess I fluffed them too much in the process, LOL.


And then I started this for the April Island Batik ambassador challenge.

So what new projects did you start over the weekend?  Or were you good and finished a WIP or UFO?

  1. I'm loving the Drunkards Path blocks! Creativity doesn't allow us to finish all our WIPS! It does sneak up on us and we do have to drop everything to scratch the itch! I have a mini quilt that I had to make this week end...I couldn't get it out of my head until I did!

  2. Oh, I've been very good! I didn't start a thing. Don't tempt me though or I might! You're purple purse fabrics are going to look fabulous.

  3. Hi Vicki,
    I didn't start a new project but I thought about it! Those drunkard path blocks look like fun - I wonder what they'll turn out to be?! I guess I'll just have to wait patiently. ~smile~ Roseanne

  4. I'm looking forward to seeing your bags! And yes, those fabrics do fluff up at the mere touch!!!

  5. Sometimes, to feed the creative side, we just *need* to start a new project! :) I'm trying to stay focused and make progress on my current projects. I love that you make multiples when you work on your projects. I'm looking forward to seeing your new bags!

  6. I'm looking forward to seeing the bags too! I'm glad you just decided to do something new. You've been on a roll with other things lately, so I think you were due for a diversion! Those curved blocks are very cool; can't wait to see what they are going to be!

  7. From now on, I'm blaming my overflowing stash on "fluffing!" :) Pretty fabrics in your purse stash!

  8. I haven't sewn a stitch since early March. Another rush trip, and no time.
