Organizing my Sewing Studio...



I finished making more 1hourbaskets ( you can find the pattern here : http://www.craftsy.com/pattern/sewing/home-decor/1-hour-basket-tutorial/136408?existingUser=true)
and spent the morning organizing my scraps. I have made 25 baskets to date !
I feel SO organized now :-D


                                       My kitty Smoky decided she needed to help.
We lost her to Diabetes last a few days ago . She was such a sweet girl .



This morning I also went out and cut some of my Hydrangeas in the garden .
These are just my favorite flowers and I enjoy drying them to enjoy for years to come :-D

Happy sewing !

Let's Go Sewing at the Quilters

You may remember my Let's Go Sewing quilt I made awhile back
 Designed by Pat Sloan
This Quilt was so much fun to make and the fabrics so fun in the kit.






Well I received these pictures from  Eileen robinhillquilts
of the wonderful quilting she has created so far for my quilt



                   
Isn't it just Amazing !! Just look at all of that detailed quilting !
I love it !.. Looking forward to seeing my quilt in person :-D


This is where it will hang in my sewing studio just below all of my vintage toy sewing machines
I will her waiting by my mailbox and ready to bind it ;-)

Happy Sewing !

Baskets Baskets & More baskets......

Hope everyone had a wonderful Mother's day !

I sure did :-D The kids had a BBQ on Saturday and
we had a wonderful time !

Sorry I have not posted for awhile. Seems like I am on Instagram alot
these days. If you would like to follow me on Instagram my name is sue_babich

The only sewing I have been doing this last 2 weeks is making more basket .
I made these 4 baskets for myself 


I have them in my cabinet to hold  my smaller precuts in  and plan on making more for my sewing room.
I will have my 5" charms  in one basket , the next one holds my jelly rolls , next one will hold my smaller FQ bundles and the last one with the cute Rabbits will hold my layer cakes that are rolled up .



 Remember the Yellow and Gray Chevron  baby quilt  and 2 Chevron baskets I made ?
The  mom to be I made them for loved them and asked where I got them ?  I offered to make her more baskets and I mailed  these 5 out to her last week .
Now I have used all of my yellow and gray fabric stash.



To say that I am addicted to these baskets is a understatement ;-D

They are so fun to make in fact to date I have made 18 of these baskets.

These are called 1 hour baskets and here is the link to the free pattern & tutorial for these baskets :
