Patchwork Cushion Covers

Hi
I am so sorry for being for not posting regularly. I have been trying to do too many things I guess:-)With lot of cooking at Veg junction, Tast, and now being a part of a quilting guild is taking a lot of time and I am not able to finish any project in the stipulated time.That is the reason I joined OPAM 2012, I needed a push as usual. It means, you need to finish one project a month and is definitely doable.
Did I mention that I got featured on Sharaon blog for my pin cushion.You can see it HERE
So my finish for the month of February is a set of patch work cushion covers...yes!!I have started sewing again!!

Here I have used The method of Disappearing nine patch and chose to use vibrant colours to match the wall decor

For the backing I have used plain red crinkled cotton

I loved these vibrant coloured cushions.Did you???

Zippered Pencil pouch

Hi
My sincere apologies to all my friends who have been supporting me and encouraging me in this blog world. I have been out of blogging for more than a year due to personal commitments. Two of my blogs friends did not ever give up on me. When ever we had a chance to mail or chat , they have been asking me if i was doing anything new. Thanks to them, i have started again:-)They are the wonderful talented bloggers NIMA and Lakshmi.

My daughter is off to the college and will not use those pouches which she guarded till her schooling. She feels it is very kiddish. I agree too!!!But what i don't disagree is the way she just drops those pens and pencils in her bag. It is all over her bag. I thought i will sew her a pouch to organize her stuff.

I have followed the tutorial of HAND BAG POUCH from Two Little Banshees.
Since i did not have thick fabric, i have used two layers of a single fabric to give the sturdiness
It just took not more than 15 minutes to complete it.Loved the look of it.



THANK YOU KATE FOR SUCH A EASY AND CUTE TUTORIAL
