Charm Squares

Charm Squares!! We have them at the Quilted Bear Den now. I made a new bag called the "Charm Party Tote." It is a really easy tote bag and since the squares are already cut, it goes pretty fast. We have the charm squares cut from the Carla Miller collection and I used them with the pink peacock fabric for the lining and handles. The bag has a cute front pocket with a flap, two inside pockets for organization, and buttons for embellishment. Please come by the shop and take a look!

Fat Quarter Quilt

Is spring finally here? I sure hope so! I have been sewing furiously trying to finish up a few things that have been hanging around. I finished the fat quarter quilt that I bought with my Christmas gift card. I love the patterns from the M'liss Rae Hawley Fat Quarter Quilt Books. It's really fun to gather the fat quarters together and make something pretty. I started with the outer border, a fabric that I had in my stash, and worked from there. She says in the book that she likes to use colors other that tan and white for the lights. I chose a pale green, and I really like the way it turned out. So, since I used up some stash, now I can get MORE!! See you at the shop.
