Sandy’s Quilt

This quilt is made from Vickie’s quilt pattern and the designs from the 10,000 member set. It was so much fun to make since borrowed a friends embroidery machine and did the large size of the designs. As you can tell I love the bright colors. I started out with all the colors in a print I had and thought that would be the border but I should know better by now and never decide on a border until I am done as this one spoke to me instead.

Phyllis’s Japanese Garden Art Quilt

Here is my quilting contest entry. I used design BFC 1032 Japanese Fantasy Garden Art Quilt. I did alter the size of a few of the designs. I added a bridge I put together to go over the water. I used aquarium gravel for my rocks and small beads for my flowers. My effort does not do the design justice – but it is what it is.

This was my first attempt at top quilting. I did find out that it does not work well with your embroidery foot. LOL

Jane’s Hummingbird and Hibiscus Handbag

Attached are 3 pictures of My Hummingbird and Hibiscus Purse. I really had fun making it and I didn’t realize that there was a contest on until after I finished it two days ago. I was really happy to see that the flower  came out so realistic.  I used a canvas fabric for the purse body  and the lining is a red mixed fabric.(I cant think of the name of the fabric at the moment)  My name is  Jane   Thank You

‘s Wild Rose Handbag

I made this for my Mum’s birthday as she loves all feminine things that are peachy/rose in colour. The bag fabric is a cream curtain-weight polyester, though gives the look of slubbed silk as the colours move with the light. It is lined with a range of pinks and florals from my stash that coordinate with the embroidery.

Great idea about using the various fabrics for the lining!  That can add a lot of interest in the bag itself – make it more special!  Suz

Kay’s Vest and Handbag

I have used the BFC 830 Passion Flower Bag Pattern and designs for my project.

My daughter gave me the pre-made vest for a gift.  It is beautifully made and I thought that I could improve it by adding some beautiful machine embroidery to it.That year I was going to a patchwork retreat with lots of like-minded ladies.  –  Are you like me? Do you like to show off things that you make to people who appreciate the work that goes into it – not like showing my husband – or my work colleagues  – even my patchwork friends – who back   – even my patchwork friends – who back in 2009 weren’t into machine embroidery. So I decided to make a lovely bag and decorate the vest with the same designs. The colours of the Passion Flower designs were exactly what I had in mind. I must say it was a hit.

I purchased the “Passion Flower Bag” pattern and designs from Suz.  I made the bag using cream and brown silk that I had bought from our dear friend Sylvia.  The design stitched out beautifully on the silk and the pattern was excellent with very good instructions for making it.  I then used the designs to embroider across the back of the vest and over the left shoulder.  I was very happy with the finished project and always get a lot of comments when I wear it.

I LOVE this Kay!  I wear vests all the time.  this is a really stunning outfit.  No wonder you get lots of comments!  This is a great example of how the designs on our bags don.t have to be used only for bags!  Suz

Doreen’s Humming bird Bag

I love hummingbirds so had to make this.

The brown batik I brought back from Bali this summer. The green blue batik looks to me like shadows in the branches and leaves of the trees

I made the handle longer so I could get it over my head and shoulder.

I have pockets all the way around inside. This is the first contest I have entered.

I love the colors you used 🙂 Suz
