Quilting in the 3rd dimension by Sheila Green. By using several different sub-straights inside fabrics, Sheila was able to create dimension and forms. 

Quilts are not always flat..they can take on shape and texture from cutting and sewing or from what you use inside.

Highlights from Oct 10, 26 Sew Day

 

A handmade gift is something crafted manually with your own hands. Our sew day was all about what we handmake. Kate shared her Japanese style tie bag.

Anyone who came to sew day could make a simple wallet. These make great gifts as themselves or for a gift card. They are easy and fun...and don't require a zipper!

We were able to tweak the pattern to make the wallet into a name tag on the other side. Brilliant Melissa

So many wallets..... 3 kinds of free patterns are available on our resources page. 

Jen worked on a patchwork pooch

Kris worked on some scrappy bowl cozies.

That ends another year of LMQG Sew days. 

Stay tuned for next year. 

Until then make sure you sign up at our October meeting for our Patchwork  Holiday Tea Party
