ellyn's place: schoolhouse tunic - with pockets!
http://ellynsplace.blogspot.com/2015/07/schoolhouse-tunic-with-pockets_21.html
Tuesday, July 21, 2015. Schoolhouse tunic - with pockets! Recently I got it in my head that the Schoolhouse Tunic. I mean, really, everything should have pockets, don't you think? While teaching a Washi Dress. Class at Stitched with Love. I thought, hmmm, I wonder if those Washi pockets would work on a Schoolhouse Tunic? Bought me some Parson Gray fabric and brought it home to try it out. Nobody will know it's there but me, but it just feels right. Finished in a day and I love it! July 22, 2015 at 6:54 AM.

Tuesday, April 21, 2015. My first major creation. Although I have been making things my whole life, 25 years ago today my first major creation made her appearance. She's still my tiny one (not as tiny as the photo above, but still tiny! But she has become a woman of strong faith, big adventures, love of travel, curiosity about the world around her and wonderful kindness to her family and friends. I encourage you to read about her adventures here. I wish you a very happy birthday Leigh Anne! Each board me...

Saturday, May 30, 2015. On the road again. About a week ago I headed off to Phoenix to spend some time with Mom and Dad. Dad had some surgery this past week and I am happy to be here to help them out (He's home and healing). Luckily I have my Hexagon project to keep me busy! I finished up hexies 18, 19 and 20 early in the week. And I am beginning to join some into rows. Such a wonderful portable project. What do you work on when you're traveling? Monday, May 18, 2015. See how happy she is? I used a coupl...

Wednesday, December 31, 2014. One last swap for 2014. I've been blogging friends with Jen. For several years. We've swapped goodies before (three of my favorite pincushions are these chickens. She sent me in 2011! Earlier this fall, Jen and I decided to do our own private mini quilt swap. I had fun making her this English Paper Pieced mini that I called "you're a star! I sent it off with some extra goodies, and look at the fabulous bundle I received from Jen. Not one, but TWO awesome minis! Mug rugs made...

Wednesday, March 25, 2015. The year of littles. I wonder if I'll actually make any quilts this year? I'm sure I will, but so far 2015 has been a year of little projects. Bee blocks, bags, pouches, pin cushions. everything but quilts! Here are my latest finishes. Bee blocks ready for Sarah. Another Petunia Peacock pin cushion (a shop sample for the class I'm going to teach at Stitched with Love. Petunia was soon joined by Daisy Hedgehog (also a shop sample! Daisy is a new pattern from Jennifer Jangles.

Thursday, July 23, 2015. English paper pieced plus quilt. A while ago I hinted at a little project I was working on, using Mollie (Wild Olive)'s tutorial. For English paper piecing plus blocks. This is genius! Those of us who love to have a hand work project going at all times salute you Mollie! What started off as a collection of Aqua/gray/low volume pluses evolved into this sweet mini that will forever hang on my studio wall. Here are my 21 original plus blocks all sewn together. Pouch with a View.

Saturday, August 29, 2015. My sister, Diane, takes some beautiful pictures of church steeples she sees. Here is one I borrowed (with her permission). You can see more in her Flickr group. Taken by her and others (I even took a couple of them) Her pictures were the inspiration for my latest mini quilt. After I made my Imagine quilt. For the Riley Blake Challenge, earlier this year, I decided I should work backwards and make a quilt for each of my words of the year. Grace was my word in 2014. I have a coup...
