Sewing Along from Daisychain Quilter

This year I need to finish some of my UFOs. I started this quilt when teaching several groups in the local area, I wrote the instructions and demo the contsruction for a new block every week.

All the blocks are six inches finished but I have the instructions for the blocks to be twelve inches finished. I am going to make a few more new blocks as well as demo the original blocks.

So keep watching the blog for written instructions and Youtube for the demos which I will link with the blog.

I used a bundle of fat quarters ...

Pattern Hack from Daisychain Quilter

I really enjoy making a flat zipper case. I have made a lot over the year to sell at craft fairs.

So it was one of the first patterns written for Bon Couture Designs. At Bon Couture Designs, we have decided that we need to make some new samples for our social media platforms.

I made this smaller zipper case to keep all my drawing pens safe when I am out and about and to take away to France in the summer. I love to do quick sketches of places, floral and beach inspirational things when I am on holiday ...

Block Three from Daisychain Quilter

I do not usually work with brown colour fabrics. These brown tones are too 'vomit sick' colour for me. But these brown fabrics are part of the fat quarter bundle so I feel that if I do not use I will never use them.

I will make some more block using these brown fabric to see if I can begin to like them. I think the brown fabrics are needed to be incorporated in the quilt to enhance the overall design.

Anyway that all folks until next time.

Block Two from Daisychain Quilter

So now have make block two of my new quilt BOM. Again this block is six inches finished. I love the colours of this block.

So here are both blocks.

I am writing up the instructions for Bon Couture Designs as a quilt pattern. I have yet to decide a name for this new quilt pattern. Any suggestions?

OPAM February from Daisychain Quilter

I am on a roll with the 'end of season' or gift box thingy. See my last OPAM post. This purse key fob is ideal if only want to carry a key and a few coins on a trip to the shops, on the school run or dog walking.

There are few pattern tutorial for these project on the internet. Another great sash busting projects.

I have started another sewing project that I have again seen on Instagram. I am still tweaking with the measurements. When I have finished I will post about it...

OPAM January 2020 from Daisychain Quilter

I really enjoyed getting started on this year seasonal gift projects. I am planning to make at least one item for the 'end of year season'. For some crafters it is tooooooo early to mention the word Christmas.

Not me, I am getting an early start with this Santa Wine Bottle Topper. These are very popular on Instagram.

Everyone needs a key fob. It is a great way to using up all my scraps. I will probably make a whole bunch off these key fobs for my Etsy shop and well as for my gift box. It is always handy ...
