This block takes quite a bit of trimming but the end result is worth it. The finished block size is 6.5" but I will try to come back later and post a size chart for larger blocks. If you make this block, use #partingwaysblock on Instagram so I can see!<br />

<br />
The cool thing about this block is that you can mess around with it and create different layouts. I settled on the "kaleidoscope" effect for the pink quilt that I made.<br />

<br />
Here is what you'll need:<br />
<br />

<br />
- Two 5" squares<br />
- Two 7" squares<br />
<br />
First, you'll need to draw a diagonal line across the smaller squares to create your HSTs.<br />
<br />
<img border="0" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-hKuuEsS3Sow/VWPHT51APlI/AAAAAAAACOI/nROzVcFlULY/s1600/10.JPG" /><br />
<br />
Stack both 5" squares on top of each other, right sides together, and sew at 1/4" on each side of the penciled line.<br />
<br />
<img border="0" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-WoXb0QUuM84/VWPGsTK0jCI/AAAAAAAACN8/EUzeGX4Y8HA/s1600/8.JPG" /><br />
<br />
Slice in half along the diagonal line you drew.<br />
<br />

<br />
Press open and trim at 4.5"<br />
<br />
<img border="0" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-LHRHjAEKouU/VWPJpdS8evI/AAAAAAAACOU/QTVMIkq3mWk/s1600/11.JPG" /><br />
<br />
Now slice each of your HSTs diagonally, perpendicular to the line you have sewn.<br />
<br />

<br />
Place one of the halves on a corner of the larger 7" square, right side up.<br />
<br />
<img border="0" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-fFVX9-aM2J8/VWO5--CF4BI/AAAAAAAACL0/JpGnDsO_xGg/s1600/13.jpg" /><br />
<br />
Line up your ruler to 1/4" over your corner.<br />
<br />

<br />
Holding the ruler down, fold over your corner and mark a line along the ruler's edge on your 7" square.<br />
<br />
<img border="0" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-NnIvRLPWYKE/VWO6stBN7wI/AAAAAAAACME/dY71jXPDwNI/s1600/15.jpg" /><br />
<br />
Now draw a line onto your corner 1/4" from the long edge.<br />
<br />
<img border="0" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-BqGKr0UCDww/VWPEJIwuLNI/AAAAAAAACNg/D0CaL-Xp-rQ/s1600/17.JPG" /><br />
<br />
Place the corner on top of the 7" square, wrong side up, making sure to line up the two lines you drew. Pin in place.<br />
<br />
<img border="0" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-bkZunOm7ROc/VWPE0WcE2zI/AAAAAAAACNo/i9cP92vcO7c/s1600/18.JPG" /><br />
<br />
Trim off the excess corner of the 7" square and then sew down the line you drew. You should be left with a 1/4" seam.<br />
<br />
<img border="0" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-nbjY0_hY7Xo/VWPGAd_Kc3I/AAAAAAAACN0/ByA9BkERqzg/s1600/19.JPG" /><br />
<br />
Repeat with other corner and both corners of remaining 7" square. Press seams open and square off to 7".<br />
<br />
<img border="0" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-GLAXExNJpGA/VWPDIjOU4uI/AAAAAAAACNY/vOEw3YtdYis/s1600/20.JPG" /><br />
<br />
Draw a line diagonally on the wrong side of one of your squares.<br />
<br />
<img border="0" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-bFAbeNPo_dw/VWO66pb2NwI/AAAAAAAACMM/rd3E2MbkIXA/s1600/21.jpg" /><br />
<br />
Stack your two 7" squares, right sides together, and sew at 1/4" on each side of the penciled line.<br />
<br />
<img border="0" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-5gZ0gqxs-R0/VWO7JBRPHeI/AAAAAAAACMU/DyOB_i6OBKg/s1600/22.jpg" /><br />
<br />
Slice in half along the diagonal line you drew.<br />
<br />
<img border="0" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-B6VLYWeBAJI/VWO7VQXN3tI/AAAAAAAACMc/jgQLmRrCZWE/s1600/23.jpg" /><br />
<br />
Press seams open and trim finished square at 6.5".<br />
<br />

<br />
And you're finished! I hope this wasn't too confusing. Don't forget to use the hashtag #partingwaysblock on Instagram if you make this block. I'd love to see different variations of this! Happy sewing :)<br />

<center>Ali was kind enough to work out all the math for me. I used this chart to help me convert her gorgeous quilt into an 18" pillow. I used block 6 for mine.</center><br />

<center>Instead of using scrappy squares, I went through all my green scraps and created a green scrappy background. I used Medrona Road text for all my squares. I really love the outcome!</center><br />

<center>For the back, I used my favorite method. I love an exposed zipper and have been using that for all my pillows lately.</center><br />

<center>I loved this pattern. It was so fun getting to work with Ali's book, <a href="http://www.amazon.com/Quilt-Lab--Creative-Side-Science-ebook/dp/B00HSBNSEE/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1393710869&sr=8-1&keywords=quilt+lab">Quilt Lab</a>. She used an awesome chemistry book feel for it and I think it's absolutely genius! All the patterns in it are so creative.<br />

I've been meaning to post this tutorial for awhile now but have not had (or made) any time for the tedious blogging process. Let me just say that I take no credit whatsoever for the originality of this pouch. This is just a method I use to make it easier for myself. I apologize in advance for the poor quality photos. I took them with my iPhone as I was making the pouch. Here we go.<br />
<br />
</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><a href="https://lh4.googleusercontent.com/-beRKeF3kRjg/UsYkvNRljpI/AAAAAAAACCA/h1qWsu6W3bg/s640/blogger-image--1226746624.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="https://lh4.googleusercontent.com/-beRKeF3kRjg/UsYkvNRljpI/AAAAAAAACCA/h1qWsu6W3bg/s640/blogger-image--1226746624.jpg"></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><br />
You will need:<br />
- 2 exterior panels 13" x 8"<br />
- 2 interior panels 13" x 8"<br />
- 2 panels of fusible interfacing 13" x 8"<br />
- 2 panels of cotton batting 13" x 8"<br />
- 12" zipper<br />
- scrap of fabric 4" x 7" for handle (optional)<br />
<br />
For the larger sized pouch, I use 15" x 10" panels and a 14 inch zipper. When you get to boxing the corners, cut the squares at 2" x 2" or slightly smaller if you don't want the bag to be as tall. Just play around with the measurements until you find something you like.<br />
<br />
If you are quilting the exterior panels, which I did for this tutorial, fuse the interfacing and quilt them before beginning.<br />
<br />
</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><a href="https://lh5.googleusercontent.com/-SRuCnJY8VYo/UsYk-0H7tiI/AAAAAAAACCo/ZZRzxy50uUY/s640/blogger-image-723434946.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="https://lh5.googleusercontent.com/-SRuCnJY8VYo/UsYk-0H7tiI/AAAAAAAACCo/ZZRzxy50uUY/s640/blogger-image-723434946.jpg"></a></div><br />
First, lay out one of your exterior panels and place the zipper face down, with the zip pull on the left side, along the top of the panel. Make sure it's centered.<br />
<br />
</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><a href="https://lh4.googleusercontent.com/-mTnXRCWKu48/UsYsrwQ-26I/AAAAAAAACFE/_2OcwtR-Zk4/s640/blogger-image-570533920.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="https://lh4.googleusercontent.com/-mTnXRCWKu48/UsYsrwQ-26I/AAAAAAAACFE/_2OcwtR-Zk4/s640/blogger-image-570533920.jpg"></a></div><br />
Lay one of the interior panels over the zipper and mark a 1/2 inch mark on either side of the panel along the top edge.<br />
<br />
</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><a href="https://lh4.googleusercontent.com/-8AHMGXeL0Hw/UsYkRw761sI/AAAAAAAACBQ/IvELMr2s5ps/s640/blogger-image-1658245944.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="https://lh4.googleusercontent.com/-8AHMGXeL0Hw/UsYkRw761sI/AAAAAAAACBQ/IvELMr2s5ps/s640/blogger-image-1658245944.jpg"></a></div><br />
</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><a href="https://lh6.googleusercontent.com/-2-20kZjOKeo/UsYsu-bMMyI/AAAAAAAACFM/DsbHDpE8yY0/s640/blogger-image-1662200497.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="https://lh6.googleusercontent.com/-2-20kZjOKeo/UsYsu-bMMyI/AAAAAAAACFM/DsbHDpE8yY0/s640/blogger-image-1662200497.jpg"></a></div><br />
Using your zipper foot, sew along the top edge starting and ending at the 1/2 inch marks.<br />
<br />
</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><a href="https://lh6.googleusercontent.com/-L2tXOy5BmvY/UsYlFzVIwzI/AAAAAAAACCw/Wlq0fmjmVbY/s640/blogger-image--736756514.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="https://lh6.googleusercontent.com/-L2tXOy5BmvY/UsYlFzVIwzI/AAAAAAAACCw/Wlq0fmjmVbY/s640/blogger-image--736756514.jpg"></a></div><br />
Press both panels to one side of the zipper.<br />
<br />
</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><a href="https://lh3.googleusercontent.com/-IaIYIp_pWD4/UsYk0qDGtpI/AAAAAAAACCQ/fk1_k6xwj7U/s640/blogger-image-926756994.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="https://lh3.googleusercontent.com/-IaIYIp_pWD4/UsYk0qDGtpI/AAAAAAAACCQ/fk1_k6xwj7U/s640/blogger-image-926756994.jpg"></a></div><br />
Lay this finished piece face down over your other exterior panel. This time your zip pull should be on the right side.<br />
<br />
</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><a href="https://lh5.googleusercontent.com/-d6DpL7r1qqc/UsYlbbn1kBI/AAAAAAAACDQ/7vIJgwMaM4Q/s640/blogger-image--834187772.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="https://lh5.googleusercontent.com/-d6DpL7r1qqc/UsYlbbn1kBI/AAAAAAAACDQ/7vIJgwMaM4Q/s640/blogger-image--834187772.jpg"></a></div><br />
Place the other interior panel face down over the zipper and mark 1/2 inch on each side again. Sew along the top starting and ending at the 1/2 inch mark and then press down both sides.<br />
<br />
</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><a href="https://lh5.googleusercontent.com/-J7OzmydwXX0/UsYqIb8R1jI/AAAAAAAACEw/VqKYd3jpalg/s640/blogger-image--162690868.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="https://lh5.googleusercontent.com/-J7OzmydwXX0/UsYqIb8R1jI/AAAAAAAACEw/VqKYd3jpalg/s640/blogger-image--162690868.jpg"></a></div><br />
Now top stitch on both sides of the zipper, again starting and ending at 1/2 inch from the edge.<br />
<br />
</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><a href="https://lh6.googleusercontent.com/-mWqM9X5ykjw/UsYlXxssm6I/AAAAAAAACDI/HJdjMYeUx_U/s640/blogger-image--1686540856.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="https://lh6.googleusercontent.com/-mWqM9X5ykjw/UsYlXxssm6I/AAAAAAAACDI/HJdjMYeUx_U/s640/blogger-image--1686540856.jpg"></a></div><br />
Your panels should look like this. Now separate the exterior panels from the interior panels and sew along the bottom edges of both. I forgot to take a picture of this step but just sew as if making a regular zipper pouch. Only sew the bottom of the exterior panels and the bottom of the interior panels, leaving an opening for turning later. DO NOT sew along the side edges where the zipper is.<br />
<br />
</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><a href="https://lh5.googleusercontent.com/-Migs7PZhsZM/UsYlVSlNqFI/AAAAAAAACDA/keywWk_q7Ik/s640/blogger-image-1636647677.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="https://lh5.googleusercontent.com/-Migs7PZhsZM/UsYlVSlNqFI/AAAAAAAACDA/keywWk_q7Ik/s640/blogger-image-1636647677.jpg"></a></div><br />
Now, fold the panels so that the seams are aligned with the zipper. Press seams open.<br />
<br />
</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><a href="https://lh6.googleusercontent.com/-1vFIi6vLxEk/UsYkd7k0dYI/AAAAAAAACBw/emsoBxnExpI/s640/blogger-image--870439992.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="https://lh6.googleusercontent.com/-1vFIi6vLxEk/UsYkd7k0dYI/AAAAAAAACBw/emsoBxnExpI/s640/blogger-image--870439992.jpg"></a></div><br />
Pin back the interior panels on one side of the pouch.<br />
<br />
</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><a href="https://lh6.googleusercontent.com/-J0Yxaez9NBE/UsYlSz5YNGI/AAAAAAAACC4/qrVUzSbZeLQ/s640/blogger-image-6941163.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="https://lh6.googleusercontent.com/-J0Yxaez9NBE/UsYlSz5YNGI/AAAAAAAACC4/qrVUzSbZeLQ/s640/blogger-image-6941163.jpg"></a></div><br />
Sew along the exterior panels, including the zipper at 3/8" along the edge.<br />
<br />
</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><a href="https://lh5.googleusercontent.com/-iI8hnyXapfc/UsYkYwkvaDI/AAAAAAAACBg/gXnmdZr6LLc/s640/blogger-image--844306153.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="https://lh5.googleusercontent.com/-iI8hnyXapfc/UsYkYwkvaDI/AAAAAAAACBg/gXnmdZr6LLc/s640/blogger-image--844306153.jpg"></a></div><br />
</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><a href="https://lh6.googleusercontent.com/-qAn1OLzCRhs/UsYlgg55x8I/AAAAAAAACDg/GN93NQ12TIw/s640/blogger-image--994171511.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="https://lh6.googleusercontent.com/-qAn1OLzCRhs/UsYlgg55x8I/AAAAAAAACDg/GN93NQ12TIw/s640/blogger-image--994171511.jpg"></a></div><br />
Go over the zipper a few times to reinforce. Repeat with the other side exterior.<br />
<br />
</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><a href="https://lh3.googleusercontent.com/-hco7n97LTeM/UsYp11ddNSI/AAAAAAAACEQ/H-fS19iQQ8g/s640/blogger-image--648637561.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="https://lh3.googleusercontent.com/-hco7n97LTeM/UsYp11ddNSI/AAAAAAAACEQ/H-fS19iQQ8g/s640/blogger-image--648637561.jpg"></a></div><br />
Now pin back the exterior panels.<br />
<br />
</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><a href="https://lh4.googleusercontent.com/-oD1EHxly5Ns/UsYp4c60l0I/AAAAAAAACEY/DA3gy5mGHYQ/s640/blogger-image-262478534.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="https://lh4.googleusercontent.com/-oD1EHxly5Ns/UsYp4c60l0I/AAAAAAAACEY/DA3gy5mGHYQ/s640/blogger-image-262478534.jpg"></a></div><br />
Sew along the interior panels over the zipper once again, this time at 1/4" from the edge. Repeat with the other side and set pouch aside.<br />
<br />
</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><a href="https://lh6.googleusercontent.com/-jRugFezIaT8/UsYpy6TsxSI/AAAAAAAACEI/yBIqIr0mA50/s640/blogger-image-1747215663.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="https://lh6.googleusercontent.com/-jRugFezIaT8/UsYpy6TsxSI/AAAAAAAACEI/yBIqIr0mA50/s640/blogger-image-1747215663.jpg"></a></div><br />
If you are attaching a handle, cut your scrap piece down to 4" by 7".<br />
<br />
</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><a href="https://lh5.googleusercontent.com/-yNBCmIN--ms/UsYozKgGVtI/AAAAAAAACEA/GEFFsfNj25U/s640/blogger-image-1124879715.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="https://lh5.googleusercontent.com/-yNBCmIN--ms/UsYozKgGVtI/AAAAAAAACEA/GEFFsfNj25U/s640/blogger-image-1124879715.jpg"></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><br />
Press in half lengthwise and then press both edges towards the center, just as you would with a purse handle.<br />
<br />
</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><a href="https://lh6.googleusercontent.com/-qml6JrKrFPE/UsYkxrV1uCI/AAAAAAAACCI/HjJ0O6b7ajo/s640/blogger-image--11007367.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="https://lh6.googleusercontent.com/-qml6JrKrFPE/UsYkxrV1uCI/AAAAAAAACCI/HjJ0O6b7ajo/s640/blogger-image--11007367.jpg"></a></div><br />
Top stitch along the edges and then sew a couple of lines in between to make sturdier.<br />
<br />
</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><a href="https://lh3.googleusercontent.com/-uaJt_sJFKHo/UsYndfjz17I/AAAAAAAACD0/zz8iVwQsJXI/s640/blogger-image--220543647.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="https://lh3.googleusercontent.com/-uaJt_sJFKHo/UsYndfjz17I/AAAAAAAACD0/zz8iVwQsJXI/s640/blogger-image--220543647.jpg"></a></div><br />
To box corners, draw out a square on an interior corner at 1 1/2" x 1 1/2". Start measuring at the seam on the side edge.<br />
<br />
</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><a href="https://lh6.googleusercontent.com/-qtwcv6wcO1E/UsYkbCgTLtI/AAAAAAAACBo/_1dxuO7II1I/s640/blogger-image-4319870.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="https://lh6.googleusercontent.com/-qtwcv6wcO1E/UsYkbCgTLtI/AAAAAAAACBo/_1dxuO7II1I/s640/blogger-image-4319870.jpg"></a></div><br />
Cut out the square.<br />
<br />
</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><a href="https://lh3.googleusercontent.com/-MIpdiHkdsy8/UsYkU6ZZa7I/AAAAAAAACBY/EzdP93tovA8/s640/blogger-image--1722870600.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="https://lh3.googleusercontent.com/-MIpdiHkdsy8/UsYkU6ZZa7I/AAAAAAAACBY/EzdP93tovA8/s640/blogger-image--1722870600.jpg"></a></div><br />
Position the corner so that the seam is in the center and then sew it closed. Repeat with the other three corners of lining.<br />
<br />

Now cut out the corner squares on the exterior panels. Before you sew them shut, insert the handle into one of the holes and center it to the seam. Sew closed.<br />
<br />

Pull the other end of the handle out from the corner closest to it and center it to that seam before sewing shut.<br />
<br />
</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><a href="https://lh4.googleusercontent.com/-wLwI1jmK7_c/UsYlePg5j9I/AAAAAAAACDY/4-sTGHLpnPQ/s640/blogger-image-1559821748.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="https://lh4.googleusercontent.com/-wLwI1jmK7_c/UsYlePg5j9I/AAAAAAAACDY/4-sTGHLpnPQ/s640/blogger-image-1559821748.jpg"></a></div><br />
Cut excess fabric and close the two remaining corners.<br />

Now turn the entire pouch right side out from the opening in your lining. Sew opening closed.<br />
<br />

Gently stuff fabric scraps into your pouch to help you press your pouch really pretty and perfect.<br />
<br />

At least when it comes to blogging. I know I've been absent from the blog lately, but that doesn't mean I haven't been a busy little bee. There are a ton of projects I've completed that I haven't had time to blog about, including my Millwater Cowl! I'm hoping to get it photographed and blogged very soon. I also started homeschooling AJ and writing a book! Like an actual written book, not a sewing related one. So you can find pics of my progress and all my projects on IG. My sn on there is greenletterday.<br />

I am so in love with my new quilt. I finished it early last month but haven't been able to blog about it until now. Hubby got me a new laptop for our 8 year anniversary (yay!!) so I'll be able to blog more and work on some new patterns.<br />

For this quilt, I made twenty 12" blocks using a variety of pink, yellow, grey and texty fabrics. I have always loved the churn dash block and have used it on smaller projects like bags and pouches but decided it was time to make a cozy quilt out of them. I really enjoyed fussy cutting some of my favorite prints for the centers of each block. I think my favorite block is the yellow dog print with the pink frame. Why are Heather Ross prints so adorable?!?<br />
<br />
Quilt Stats<br />
block: church dash<br />
fabrics used: variety of designer prints (heather ross, melody miller, echino, etc)<br />
completed size: approx. 48" x 60"<br />
binding: machine stitched in front, hand stitched in back<br />
quilting: vertical straight lines along seams</center><br />

I can't get my fill of cable knit mug cozies.<br />

I finished this one off for a friend and then started a purple one. Have I mentioned how much I am in love with Madeline Tosh yarn? It's a sickness.<br />
<br />
<div class="separator"style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://lh3.googleusercontent.com/-CDRdHX3cKXQ/UVIB-fw_JDI/AAAAAAAAB7g/urBafuLn8dg/s640/blogger-image--616252253.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="https://lh3.googleusercontent.com/-CDRdHX3cKXQ/UVIB-fw_JDI/AAAAAAAAB7g/urBafuLn8dg/s640/blogger-image--616252253.jpg" /></a></div><br />
And I have to watch the Tudors while I knit because... Well, look at Henry Cavill. Can you blame me?<br />

The purple color way is called Flashdance and it has hints of hot pink. Pictures don't do it justice. The color and feel are beautiful!<br />
<br />

And guess what... I finished my churn dash quilt top!! Wooo! Thanks to all of you who kept me on track and encouraged me to cut into some cherished prints I'd been hoarding! I love how it turned out and I will post pictures as soon as I finish the whole thing. Until then, I'm starting a pretty pink cowl with my new Madeline Tosh yarn! Have a Happy Easter!!<br />

I love fussy cutting cute prints for the centers of my blocks but unfortunately, that results in very slow progress. It also doesn't help that I've made a handful of blocks that I ended up hating and have eliminated. I hope to finish this quilt by the end of the month. Hold me accountable!!<br />
<br />

Earlier this month, I received a lovely surprise in the mail from Shari, the fabric designer behind Doohikey Designs. I met her via Instagram and she is the biggest sweetheart. She was kind enough to send me this entire collection!<br />
<br />

I didn't waste any time getting started on a log cabin baby quilt. These prints are so adorable and the color palette is perfect for spring.<br />

As you may recall, I made a knitted mug cozy for my Love Day swap partner last month. I used a beautiful cable knit pattern that I found on etsy awhile back. My partner loved it so much, that she requested another one in a pink/mint combo.<br />

I'm almost done with it and then I plan to make a purple one for another friend! This pattern is so fun. What have you been working in this month? Leave links in my comment section of your WIP's.

My sweet husband gave me an iPad mini for Christmas. I burst into tears when I read the engraving in the back. It's a quote from my favorite childhood book, Love You Forever.<br />
<br />
<div class="separator"style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://lh6.googleusercontent.com/-fZoIcPTdaJE/UTOqkYzBCNI/AAAAAAAAB5I/caVZ648VDog/s640/blogger-image-1239883132.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="https://lh6.googleusercontent.com/-fZoIcPTdaJE/UTOqkYzBCNI/AAAAAAAAB5I/caVZ648VDog/s640/blogger-image-1239883132.jpg" /></a></div><br />
I used to love it when my mom read this book to me before bed. After I had AJ, I immediately went on the hunt to buy him his own copy. Upon reading it again as a mother, I cried so much. I was an emotional mess! This is now AJ's favorite book too and he insists on me reading it to him every night. It meant so much to me to have my husband remember how much these words mean to me. Goes to show they really do pay attention to the little things!<br />
<br />
<div class="separator"style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://lh6.googleusercontent.com/-H318fszo7Xk/UTOqftN0rGI/AAAAAAAAB44/ul5pC6ZyiNc/s640/blogger-image--974196622.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="https://lh6.googleusercontent.com/-H318fszo7Xk/UTOqftN0rGI/AAAAAAAAB44/ul5pC6ZyiNc/s640/blogger-image--974196622.jpg" /></a></div><br />
I bought a hard case for it right after I got it so that it wouldn't get scratched, but I knew I eventually wanted to make a case for it. I played around with some blocks before deciding on a scrappy selvage look. I've been collecting selvages since I first learned of their "worth" a couple of years ago. It's always fun to sort through them and create little masterpieces with all my favorite collections.<br />
<br />
<div class="separator"style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://lh3.googleusercontent.com/-5eo50jOiYU8/UTOqdLQn9cI/AAAAAAAAB4w/-fX7aHFr0y4/s640/blogger-image-1867933841.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="https://lh3.googleusercontent.com/-5eo50jOiYU8/UTOqdLQn9cI/AAAAAAAAB4w/-fX7aHFr0y4/s640/blogger-image-1867933841.jpg" /></a></div><br />
I made the case to fit the hard case but then decided I didn't like the zig zags all that much. I went in search of a Gelaskin and found the perfect one for me! I adore this cute little girl standing on a pile of books. I knew she belonged on my iPad.<br />

Hope you're having a great weekend! I'll be back soon with a little Easter giveaway! (There may or may not be a hint on my Instagram feed @greenletterday)Bonniehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/11340881603691537990noreply@blogger.com11tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-716517931327662034.post-87809074390845042002013-02-28T08:13:00.000-06:002013-02-28T08:13:15.638-06:00My DuffelLast year I bought the Studio Cherie Duffel pattern with the intention of making one for myself right away. Didn't happen. I waited until a week before we went on our family vacation to Ruidoso, NM last month to whip one up.<br />
<br />
<div class="separator"style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://lh5.googleusercontent.com/-ShQEblcosMk/US60K5kD7ZI/AAAAAAAAB0Y/29NwM4Qdngg/s640/blogger-image--407268758.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="https://lh5.googleusercontent.com/-ShQEblcosMk/US60K5kD7ZI/AAAAAAAAB0Y/29NwM4Qdngg/s640/blogger-image--407268758.jpg" /></a></div><br />
I had so many excuses for waiting this long. It was an intimidating project, I was undecided on fabric choices, I didn't have time. In the end, it wasn't very hard at all. The most tedious part was making and attaching the straps. After that it came together pretty quickly. It's huge. It fits a queen sized comforter inside with plenty of room to spare.<br />
<br />
<div class="separator"style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://lh6.googleusercontent.com/-C0BgzWYXiJE/US60FTxGjdI/AAAAAAAAB0Q/sxjRxCpTZDg/s640/blogger-image-2040863589.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="https://lh6.googleusercontent.com/-C0BgzWYXiJE/US60FTxGjdI/AAAAAAAAB0Q/sxjRxCpTZDg/s640/blogger-image-2040863589.jpg" /></a></div><br />
Traveling handmade is so fun. It makes packing a lot less painful. And it matches my Multitasker Tote perfectly.<br />

My duffel has already gotten plenty of use. It's perfect for quick getaways too. We took it to the San Antonio rodeo a few weekends ago. I can't wait to take it to Sewing Summit later this year.

This month, I participated in Ros's Sweet Pouch Swap over at <a href="http://www.sewdelicious.com.au/">her blog</a>. My swap partner lives in Australia and said that she wanted something with a pink/black/white combo. I pulled out my scraps and made these adorable star blocks.<br />
<br />

I can't get enough of the scrappy look lately. I've been using it a lot with my projects lately. I love the combination of scrappy patchwork and straight line quilting.<br />

I was blown away once again by the girls participating in this swap. Looking through all the awesome pictures in the <a href="http://www.flickr.com/groups/2110822@N25/pool/">Flickr Group</a>, my heart swelled with pride at all the generosity and attention to detail that these girls put into their love packages. It's going to be hard choosing my favorites to feature on here and pick a winner from!<br />
<br />
This past Wednesday, I had the pleasure of meeting up with my swap partner, Ruthie, for lunch a Subway. We exchanged packages in person and chatted it up until we lost track of time! Here's what I gave her:<br />

Can you tell how much I love Valentine's Day??! Next to Christmas, it's my favorite time of the year. I say it every year and I'll say it again: Everyday should be a celebration of love! If you follow me on Instagram (@greenletterday), you've no doubt seen endless pictures of my works in progress and our gift exchange. The best part about a face to face swap is working on the presentation. It's true that great minds think alike because Ruthie showed up with a wicker basket full of goodies for me as well! (You can find her on Instagram too @threadofhearts)<br />
<br />
<center><img src="http://i182.photobucket.com/albums/x240/greenletterday/valentinesgoodies_zps0caa6f3d.jpg"><br />

I knew I wanted to make her a boxy pouch but besides that, I was stumped for awhile. I started off with the pixelated heart with the intentions of making her a notebook cover. The heart ended up being a big too large for that (even though the tiny squares were only one inch) so I went for a mug rug instead. I had already bought her a cute mug at Target along with a Starbucks gift card so the mug rug ended up being the perfect addition. I cable knitted coffee cozy was a last minute project. I had bought the pattern on etsy ages ago but was too afraid to try it because I'm a beginner and knitting and this pattern uses three needles! Like many other things I'm too intimidated to try, it ended up not being scary at all! It was a lot of fun to make and I look forward to making one for myself.<br />

Along with the items pictured above, the basket included vintage fabric, some adorable embroidery scissors, stamps, stickers and lots of candy! Ruthie, I hope you enjoyed all your goodies!! Have a wonderful and romantic love day, friends!<br />

I've been spending all my free time watching Catfish and reading books. This is a pillow I made sometime last year before my bloggy break. If you follow me on Instagram (@greenletterday), I'm sure you've seen it before.<br />
<br />
<img src="http://i182.photobucket.com/albums/x240/greenletterday/squareinsquare-1.jpg"><br />
<br />
I used <a href="http://www.patchworknotes.blogspot.com">Tamiko's</a> paper piecing template and fussy cut some of my favorite novelty prints to make nine blocks. At first I wasn't sure if I wanted to make a pillow or a mini quilt but when I pieced them all together, I knew it had to be a pillow. I chose not to quilt it for fear of taking attention away from the beautiful design of the blocks.<br />
<br />
<img src="http://i182.photobucket.com/albums/x240/greenletterday/pillowtop-1.jpg"><br />
<br />
I used a regular 14" zipper to piece a really quick pillow back. I love the simplicity of it (not to mention how easy it was).<br />

<br />
<img src="http://i182.photobucket.com/albums/x240/greenletterday/pouch-1-1.jpg"></center><br />
I hadn't anticipated the corners being chopped off as I was piecing it together. I ended up making a quick zippy out of it but was still unsatisfied with the result. I posted the picture on Instagram in search of some advice and was pointed towards paper piecing. Deep down, I knew this was the solution but was hoping there was another way. I have been terrified of trying paper piecing! The more I thought about it though, the more I realized how silly I was being. I started sewing as a way to challenge myself but somewhere along the way, I stopped doing just that. I stopped teaching myself new things and stuck to playing it safe. So I looked up a few YouTube videos and this <a href="https://docs.google.com/file/d/0B_c9mPWDjT75OWE1MGMwNTQtNGFkOS00YzJkLWI0OGQtNGU2ZTk0OThmZmEx/edit?pli=1">foundation paper pattern</a> by Patchwork Notes and I practiced until I got it right!<br />
<br />

<br />
<img src="http://i182.photobucket.com/albums/x240/greenletterday/squareblocks.jpg"></center><br />
After awhile, it wasn't so scary anymore! In fact, it was quite addicting. I went over and bought the Sew Ichigo <a href="http://sew-ichigo.blogspot.com/p/shop.html">"Latte To Go"</a> pattern and sewed it right up!<br />
<br />

<br />
<img src="http://i182.photobucket.com/albums/x240/greenletterday/lattetogomugrug.jpg"></center><br />
Could this pattern be any more perfect for a mug rug?? I didn't think so. I hope you've been inspired to face your sewing fears and challenge yourself to try new things! Have a fabulous weekend!Bonniehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/11340881603691537990noreply@blogger.com8tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-716517931327662034.post-6113171167635122122012-10-14T13:21:00.000-05:002012-10-14T14:24:12.272-05:00A New Fall BagI'm taking a break from all the Halloween posts to show you my new fall bag. I had been hoarding this gorgeous Anna Maria Horner print for something special and decided it was time to cut into it.<br />
<br />
<center><img src="http://i182.photobucket.com/albums/x240/greenletterday/fallbag.jpg"></center><br />
I couldn't be more pleased with the results. I paired it with a new print from her Field Study collection. I love how easy it is to mix and match all of the AMH lines.<br />
<br />
<center><img src="http://i182.photobucket.com/albums/x240/greenletterday/liningfallbag.jpg"></center><br />
I got the pattern from this book. It's called the Floral Bag and it's really easy. I think I like it because it's very similar to my Hellen Bag. This is the "small version" and it's quite big so I can't even imagine how huge the "large version" is.<br />
<br />
<center><img src="http://i182.photobucket.com/albums/x240/greenletterday/bookbagpattern.jpg"></center><br />
I also finished my fall quilt top this week! Wooo! It took me a few months to finish the blocks but since I didn't get to go to Sewing Summit, I decided I might as well be productive and get them done!<br />
<br />
<center><img src="http://i182.photobucket.com/albums/x240/greenletterday/fallquilttop.jpg"></center><br />
I sewed up a quick patchwork backing yesterday so it's all ready to be basted and quilted. The pattern is called Skipping Squares by Cluck Cluck Sew. I'm so excited to pull it out of the dryer and snuggle up with it! Hope you're having a great Sunday!Bonniehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/11340881603691537990noreply@blogger.com12tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-716517931327662034.post-74243367261347063722012-10-12T13:31:00.000-05:002012-10-12T13:31:05.657-05:00Halloween Swap Features & WinnersI had soooo much fun hosting the Halloween Swap this month.

Here are some highlights from our <a href="http://www.flickr.com/groups/2073661@N20">Flickr Group</a>:<br />

Haunt has quickly become one of my latest obsessions. These sugar polishes are so luxurious and they smell insane. A friend and I made the cute Halloween pins this week with polymer clay. They were so easy and fun to make- tutorial coming soon!<br />

I'm sure you've heard me speak of <a href="http://craptastickatie.blogspot.com">Katie</a> many times before on this blog. She's one of the first bloggy friends I ever met. She won my very first giveaway! We've been friends for almost two years and have been swapping almost as long. Katie and I arranged a private swap for Halloween/Fall and she received her package today! So now I can share what I sent.<br />
<br />

The handmade goodies were so fun to make. I mostly used Lizzy House fabrics with the exception of the Chicopee dots on the strap of the boxy pouch. I had originally made a patchwork version for Katie but I loved the pumpkin one so much, I had to send it to her! I made her a patchwork coffee cozy using Jeni's fab <a href="http://www.incolororder.com/2011/09/guest-post-holiday-bake-craft-sew.html">tutorial</a>. And I used this <a href="http://www.ravelry.com/patterns/library/crochet-flower-hot-pad">pattern</a> for the star crocheted trivet.<br />
<br />

<br />
<img src="http://i182.photobucket.com/albums/x240/greenletterday/halloweencandy.jpg"></center><br />
I went a little crazy adding extra treats- I couldn't stop myself! Target is evil. I almost died when I saw those mini spatulas. I know Katie loves to bake so those were a must. I also sent her a ton of candy (I filled the boxy pouch with a lot more!) including some of my favorite Mexican candy called Pulparindos. Sooo good!<br />
<br />
I hope this package helped put Katie in the Halloween spirit. It was so much fun putting it together! I've got a little surprise giveaway for you tomorrow so don't forget to stop by! In the meantime, you can check out some of the other cute projects from the Halloween Swap in our <a href="http://www.flickr.com/groups/2073661@N20">Flickr Group</a>.Bonniehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/11340881603691537990noreply@blogger.com7tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-716517931327662034.post-51593532604523462392012-09-19T20:54:00.001-05:002012-09-19T21:02:59.704-05:00Halloween GoodiesI've been working on some fun goodies for the Halloween Swap. I really enjoyed making the jack-o-lantern boxy pouch awhile back and I wanted to see how it would look in a patchwork version. I love them both! I also made another crocheted flower trivet in Halloween colors. So fun! Have you started any Halloween or Fall projects?<br />

I've been wanting to try it since she first posted it so I made one a couple of weeks ago to send to a friend. I had so much fun digging through all my teeny tiny scraps to make the mini star block. I'm glad it's going to a good home (along with a lobster Bella Pouch)!<br />
