Something old, something new

I was reorganizing some of my quilts, and found this one rolled up from 2007 - one of my early quilts. It must have been from when I took a Nancy Crow workshop. I always loved working with those lines. The next one I finished recently. This one I had made a few months ago, put in my closet, and forgot about it. Now I want to try some new ideas I have for quilting. Having been to some quilt shows recently, I notice how people often peer up close to a quilt-so maybe I should have more for them to see!

More Bags from Quilts

Here are 3 of the bags I have been making! I added straps to 2 of them so far-they are adjustable. I have ordered more nylon strapping-I think the middle one will look great with a gray strap. I am plugging away at machine quilting, but once in a while need a break, and work on my bag project.
