March UFO Project

I looked at my list and

have decided to do my

star block project

I think I have enough blocks to make

a small quilt top. I do not know

what I will do with it, once it is

finished. Maybe keep it....maybe

donate it for a comfort quilt.

What are you working on for March?

Linking up to

Elm Street Quilts one monthly goal March

I WILL sew today!

I joined the children's clothing sew-in at

http://www.elsiemarley.com/

for this week...

I choose these patterns for my Granddaughters.

We are going into Fall/Winter, but they both

like to wear skirts and jumpers year round,

so I'll just pick heavier weight fabrics.

The sew-in rule: some sewing related activity 1 hour per day

for 7 days in a row.

Today, I went shopping at Saver's (2nd hand store)

and found these two new-uncut Burda patterns.

I've never sewn with Burda patterns before.

Any tips or suggestions?
I'd like to do the long sleeve jacket for me
and a couple of shirts for the Hubby.

I nearly have my scrap box cleaned out

I cut all my scraps into squares or strips.

The squares range from 2.5-6.5 inches.

The strips width are from 2-3.5 inches.

I seem to be having a burst of sewing energy this week....

I better keep it rolling along!

Stash fabric purse

I spent this afternoon sewing just for the fun of it.

It seems lately I am always sewing for someone else,

but not for me just for fun. Devil Kitty joined me for some sewing time.

You can see one of the dresses for the Africa charity in the lower left of the photo.

I searched thru a bag of donated fabric and found a polynesian poly cotton scrap

and made this purse.

I've made the pattern before and it goes together really easily and quickly.

A girl can always use another purse!
