Lovely year of finishes: May

Leave a reply

It just seemed like yesterday I was doing the mid-month progress. This month was a little slower on my sewing/quilt projects than usual, however by no means was it slow in other aspects of my life :-).

A short post today, I finished making my custom order for 5 wide 3 pocket chair bags. I love how they turned out. As they are a little wider than usual I used some additional interfacing to strengthen the pockets.

Materials:

Dimensions:
Front: 20″ wide x 24″ long
Back: 20″ X 6″

Don’t you love the whale fabric !!!

I got a second order of chair bags this week at my Etsy store – Squeek Crafts. So great news for my store!!

This week’s projects that I must have finished this weekend are:

  • A custom Order from my Etsy Store for 5 Chair Bags
  • Madrona road challenge
  • Cushion Cover

For the chair bags, I have 3 girl and 2 boy themed bags/pockets to make. Here are the swatches below.

The boys have the grey corduroy with brown polka dots and whale fabric I purchased from Spoonflower.

The cushion cover, I am still working on the design but I am thinking of using a design from the book Pillow Pop. See the flickr group here.

Don’t forget to go and take a look at the mosaic contest over at Stitch in Color, voting ends tomorrow.

I am linking up with Lee @ Freshly Pieced for WiP Wednesday.
