Jelly Roll Quilt Challenge Completed

The original pattern had the quilt 

quilted vertically with a beige thread. 

I tried that for about 8 rows, and realized that I did

not like that at all. It took away from the pattern. So I ripped it all out. 

 I quilted the quilt horizontally 

with a blue thread in the solid color bricks, 

and with a beige thread in the light section. 

I bound the quilt with a gold solid color fabric. 

I am happy with it, and hope my brother will be also.

New Travelling Bag

My sister wanted me to make her a new small bag for work. 

Lucky for me she asked for my favorite colors. 

I decided to make one for me, since I will be traveling soon

 and this bag is perfect for the trip. 

 The yellow button is a very old button from my button jar. 

The pattern is the Sassy Bag from Lazy Girl Design

see here.

I accidentally made two shoulder straps instead of one, 

and the first flap got to big for the first bag. 

So I made a second bag , since a girl can never have to many bags. 

I 

I got carried away and made this one 

for me. Even felted a red flower. 

Same color scheme for my daughter-in-law, 

her birthday is coming up. 

Might as well make one more, since I had orphan blocks

 to cut up and use in the flap.
