Throwback Thursday; "Ed Winter" by Linda H.

Linda H made "Ed Winter" for me in 2003, I hang him up every Christmas. There isn't much wall space here, so I hang the dowel on some cupboard knobs.

Another Gift Bag

Here is another gift bag that made. I've got them all done now, the Christmas fabric bin is put away until next year.

Christmas Gift Bag

I tweaked the pattern a bit and made this gift bag taller so I could fold back the cuff. Every year I make gift bags, but my Christmas fabric stash never seems to reduce. I think it must breed and multiply after I put the lids back on the bins.

First Attempt

Every year I make some Christmas gift bags, this year I wanted to try something different. I followed a good tutorial from birchfabrics.blogspot.ca for fabric boxes. (Thank you for the free instructions!) The top was supposed to be folded down like a cuff. I thought if I folded down the top on this one, it would be too shallow to be a gift holder. I think I'll increase the measurement for the height on the next one.

Sewing The Binding On The "X" Quilt

I finished the quilting, now I'm trying to sew the binding on the "X" quilt. I don't know the proper name for the pattern, so I've been calling it by this name all during construction. As you can see, Igor, the Quilt Inspector is not letting me continue right now.

Quilting Completed

I finished quilting this comfort quilt for the guild. I think the pattern is called "Log Yard", the quilt top was made by some of the other members. Now I'll pass it on to the next person to do the binding and label. Many hands make light work. :)

Autumn Rhythm By Linda H.

Linda H just completed this quilt called "Autumn Rhythm". She may donate this one to her quilting group's comfort quilt stash.
