Flea Market Fancy Bday Gift

I showed you this little cutie yesterday but now that I have some decent photos I thought I would re-post it along with the other half of this gift.

I used some Flea Market Fancy scraps that I have been hoarding forEVER it seems. Along with some fraying canvas. I originally was just testing out my shabby sewing (is that what it's called?) but it turned out so good I decided to include it in a birthday gift.

Today it was time for some more FMF fun.
The recipient loves zip pouches and such so I made her a little patchwork wristlet.

It was supposed to have a gusset but honestly I had too much to do today to bother with it so just made it flat. I still think it turned out okay and it was fun working with Flea Market Fancy.

I hope she likes it.

Next week starts more shop product making. I have spent this whole weekend cutting out pouches and other goodies. I should have been cleaning up my studio though. It's pretty scary.  :)

See you soon!

Unfinished Edges

I love how fiber artists projects look with the raw edges and fringe. It's really hard for me to try and go there though with my work. I think it's the perfectionist in me. I just want to break free of rules and make something messy but can't seem to do it.
I am going to try though. Once a week just break out of my comfort zone and get my fray on.

Denyse Schmidt {Quilt} PhotoShoot

 

Because everyone has a photoshoot starring blankets right?

My mother said I needed to make some friends as she witnessed me dragging out her oh so cute quilt featuring this Denyse Schmidt fabric. For the life of me I cannot remember the name of this fabric line. I wanted some and had joined a fabric co-op and tried to purchase it but the website went defunct and by the time I found out about it this fabric was sold out on all the other online shops. :(

If anyone knows where I could purchase a fq bundle of this line please, please, please let me know.

Until then I will just have these photos of my moms to gaze at.
