sew long summer blog tour #2

We're kicking off the Sew Long Summer blog tour this week. We have some really fun and inspiring creations for you again this year.

Sew Long Summer is all about getting those transitional wardrobe pieces ready; finishing up all those things we meant to make this summer; and well, basically whatever Sew Long Summer means to you.




Welcome back.   I usually try to share clothing items on this blog, but I have not has much time for sewing clothing.   So today, I want to share about this fun quilt I made.

This quilt was made for my bosses new little boy. My boss is a golf addict, and when I found out they were having a boy, I decided a golf quilt would be fun.

Their little girl like a golf as well, so I may make one in pinks and purples for her.  She can use it when she snuggles with her daddy on the couch and they are watching golf.

I have a more detailed blog about it here https://kathyskwiltsandmore.blogspot.com/2019/09/its-tee-time-baby-quilt.html?m=1


Please check out the other bloggers this week. They are all sharing some fabulous makes.

Sew long summer blog tour


We're kicking off the Sew Long Summer blog tour this week. We have some really fun and inspiring creations for you again this year.

Sew Long Summer is all about getting those transitional wardrobe pieces ready; finishing up all those things we meant to make this summer; and well, basically whatever Sew Long Summer means to you.


I had great plans for summer sewing and great plans for back to school clothes for grandkids.  Unfortunately, it hasn't happened.  So, I got thinking about what I could share today.


With fall right around the corner, that means Christmas is right around the corner as well.


  Today I decided to share a pillowcase that I am doing for 1 of my grandkids.  I will be doing some for all of them, there are 8, but the youngest is just 2 weeks, so she might not get one right away.  These pillowcases are so easy to make and one of the best things about making things for my grandkids is they absolutely love them.   I could write out the directions, but instead I will give you a link to the directions I use. http://www.allpeoplequilt.com/bags-pillows-gifts/pillows/roll-it-pillowcase-pattern


Please follow these blogger friends of mine for some awesome makes.  It just may give you some ideas.
