Sunday Sewing--Christmas Through the Year 2013 Begins!

 One more Scrappy Trip Block made last night :)
Last night I went through all of my kid fabric that was hanging out in a big plastic bag.  I had already cut Eye Spy in different sizes, shapes from that fabric and most of it was just bits and pieces.  I put together a stack of odds and ends to give to Megan and found three different chunks for pillowcases, and a few other chunks for charity drawstring bags for PHXMQG February Charity Sew In.  Now my bag is about a third full and I am happy!
So today I have been cutting and sewing pillowcases for Christmas Through the Year!  I participated in it last year and really had a good stock of gifts for giving come December.  So four Christmas gifts made already in January!

This was fabric we got at a fabric thrift sale and I am happy to have put it to good use.  I used Weeks Ringle's pattern (free at her blog) though I used the same fabric on both sides of the strip, and I like how they came out.  Oh and I am enjoying Bonnie Hunter on QuiltCam!

There are some happy fabrics in the Scrappy Trip blocks. I think there is some of that spiderman fabric in my sons room right now.

Friends All Around!

I added twenty more blocks to Friends All Around.  It is now big enough to go on the back of the couch for a summer quilt.  I think the top ...
