Jelly Roll Gift Bags....100% Re-gift-able! (medium size)

 Hey y'all...hope all is going well. Been a bit crazy on my end so trying to play "catch up." I know it's only September and most of us are working on fall decor but I wanted to share this fun & easy gift idea with y'all. On my "quilt blog" link on right of home page...I started a series using one Jelly Roll "Joyful Holidays" by Robert Kaufman. I recieved this from Missouri Star Quilt Company & the collection is stunning. I love Batiks. It's amazing of how Batiks are made. So much time & thought goes into every fabric design. The concept of making a gift bag that is 100% re-gift-able inspiration came from my Grandson Davin last year at Christmas. He loves to recycle. Me...I'm working on it :-) Well last Christmas I made small bags to hold gift cards, etc. It was a challenge to see how many gift items I could make from one charm pack. It is still on my quilt blog & pinterest if you need more inspiration. Well, I am also challenging myself to see how many gift bags I can make from one jelly roll. I'm also incorporating the fun Holiday templates from MSQC too. You can see how stunning this fabric is in the pic below. The bags are super easy and fun to make. Who wouldn't love a "handmade gift bag" that is re-gift-able...right? :-) The "Olga" 45mm Rotary cutter fits perfectly inside. Great gift size for giving crafting supplies :-) The concept is the same..I just add the techniques used in each bag a long the way. You will mostly be reverting back to the medium "Holiday Tree" bag for instructions. If you need supplies my link to MSQC will take you to all the daily deals...tutorials & Birthday Bash Celebrations. Check out all the fun pics on Instagram...Facebook etc. MSQC is celebrating 16 years! Plus follow me on Instagram (link on right) because I am giving away one Jelly roll that MSQC graciously gave me to give to one lucky winner. View my post on Instagram for all the details. But Hurry...the contest end tonight at midnight :-) We have a lot going on the next several weeks so I thank y'all for following along. So grab your Jelly Rolls and Lets re-cycle "One Bag @ a Time 2gether!"

Blessed Cooking from My Home to Yours,

Back 2 School...Sewing Room re-do!

 Hey y'all....Sunday Blessings! I don't know about y'all but where did the summer go? Gosh...crazy how time flies. I know the kiddos are back in school and this might be a difficult transition for you. Trust me...it was for me as well. You can read my posts on quilt blog :-) But what I had to realize that it was also a time to do things that would normally not get done. So I would like to invite you to pop on over to my quilting blog (link on right of home page) for my series..."Back 2 School...Sewing Room re-do!" Yes...I'm finally getting some projects finished. You can view previous posts of how I "finally" made an old antique quilt top into drapes & just completed "Jelly Roll Scraps 2a Sewing Machine Cover." I love how the "Old Glory" Jelly Roll designed by Lella Boutique compliments my old quilt top perfectly. In fact, it actually inspired me to make the well need sewing machine cover. I know it's all about "timing" in life but it sure is nice to finally get some projects finished :-) If you aren't familiar with Jelly Rolls they are strips 2 1/2" wide by length of fabric & you get strips of the fabric collection. They are super fun to sew with for many projects. You can view many "Jelly Roll" strip patterns on Missouri Star Quilt Company's website for inspiration.(link on right of home page) Just a hint y'all...I have a super fun happenning soon w/MSQC. So check back in so you don't miss out :-) Pop on over to my quilt blog & lets "Re-do our Sewing Room 2gether!" We have tons of inspirational projects & recipes coming :-) I thank y'all so much for following & talk soon!
