Home Machine Quilting Show

I'm so excited to be attending this! Lately all I have been doing is making clothes so you would never know that I actually quilt too! I love long arm quiting/ machine quilting.

This is a quilt I am currently working on. I actually just need to bind it. I did an all over flower type design. I love free motion quilting.

This is the back...not the best picture...I just can't decide on binding, that is why I haven't shown the whole picture yet. 

So anyway...if you wonder where I'm at this weekend it will be here.  I will be playing with all the long arm machines!

another turtleneck

What perfect timing..I made my turtleneck shirt then found this blog...Its all about tranforming clothes you already have into something you will love! Check out all the great links...Now, on with my turtleneck..

I always forget to take a before picture! this was another turtleneck that i bought for $2.99. I took this picture after i cut off the neck and sleeves (obviously) then I remembered to take a picture.

so then  you will see below are the sleeves...

 

I turned them inside out and cut off the seam of the arms.

Then I cut 2 strips at 1.5 width and started to gather it.

Then I strategically place it on the collar of the shirt..oh yeah, I cut it into a v-neck.

And here we are. After I sewed on the ruffles I cut 2 strips 3 inches wide right in the middle then you just tie it into a bow!

Pretty cute don't you think? I actually really love it! Not too bad for $2.99 and it only took about 45 mins to make.

Thanks for looking!
