I was a busy bee ๐ in my sewing room today. I finished 2 small baby quilts for my friend Janet. Her husband passed several years ago and she kept all of his neckties. She asked me a couple years ago if I would make quilts for her grandbabies and incorporate the tie fabric into them. Such an honor to make these lovely keepsakes. I think these are the 4th and 5th ones I've done for her. The quilt on the left, the tie fabrics are the lime with dots, the maroon golf and the blue basketball hoops. The one on the right, the tie fabric is the purple and grey and the lime stripe.They turned out so sweet. ❤️๐
Then, I FINALLY got to make something for ME. I made myself a new tennis bag! Yippee. The handles were in shreds on my old one and it was looking worn and sad. (The last one I made myself was in 2015!!) I used some upholstery fabric for the outside and some Harmony Art organic denim for the interior. I'm so exited to play my first match of the season Thursday and use my new tote! ๐พ ๐
