Noah's Ark Quilt

 This is a panel that I have had sewn for several years.  I found a cute Noah's ark flannel backing at the local quilt shop that was a perfect match for this quilt.  Then I used Bubbles from Designs by Juju for the quilting. It is an end-to-end design.  My embroidery machine is a 10 needle Babylock.  The new big magnetic frame from Brother is perfect for end-to-end designs. I am very pleased with the final project!

 The is the Nativity Table Runner from Designs by Juju. The original was really a table runner and I wanted to make a version that would look nice hung on a wall.  Juju designs are always beautiful and wonderfully digitized.

Peach Sunrise

 Peach Sunrise is my latest quilt.  I saw the grouping of fat quarters at Cotton Pickins Shop in Washington. I had previously made a quilt with their Seaside Serenity Kit and thought the Peaches and Blush fat quarter group would make a great quilt.  I used a rail fence pattern for the quilt.  In the meantime I had purchased a new magnetic hoop to use with my 10 needle embroidery machine.  So the top is quilted with Feathers 2 end-to-end embroidery pattern from Designs by Juju. I like this quilt and enjoyed the entire process of making it.

A Large Composition Cover

My newest Juju Design is the Large Composition Cover.  It is for the composition book that is 9 3/4" x 7 1/2". It is made in three hoopings and has excellent instructions. The front is a hooping, the back is a hooping, and then the spine connects them in the third hooping. The fabric is Artisan Spirit by Northcott.  It really is a beautiful fabric! The design includes a piece of flat elastic that holds the book closed.  I found that at my local sewing machine dealer and it is a fun addition. Dec. 26: The cover was a Christmas present for my Greatgrandson. Landon loved his gift!

Merry Christmas Garden Flag

This is one of the Christmas gifts I am giving to friends and family.  I found the flag blank and the Merry Christmas embroidery design at Oh My Crafty Supplies. They have a new delivery system and it does not take very long to get the order. I had a second order in time to give them on Christmas Day. The bottom design is Split Flourish Monogram by Designs by Juju and it comes in many sizes. Merry Christmas to all my sewing and embroidery friends!

A Glorious Reading Pillow

This pillow makes me smile.  It is a Designs by Juju design and is titled Be a Unicorn 2. I did have to combine two designs and then add the name.  I found the fabric through an online search for unicorns and rainbows. It will be a Christmas gift for a friend's granddaughter.  I think she will love it.

Tiny Notebooks

I found these tiny notebooks yesterday on Designs by Juju. I thought they would be a nice gift for kids as well as adults. The green one now belongs to my hairdresser. They are made in-the-hoop with one hooping.  One of the notebooks is cotton and the other is a hologram foil spandex knit that I found at Joanne's.  I have since found additional colors at fabric.com which has many luscious colors. The notebooks are 4.5" x 3.25" composition books that can be found at Dollar stores, Amazon, and other office supply stores. There are six different designs and I was fortunate to find them at half price ($4) for two designs.  Now I am headed to my embroidery machine to make more tiny notebooks.
