Craft Show
Saturday, October 20, 2012
Well today was my very first craft show at a little church in my area. It was fun. All I had time to make were some quilted bibs, which I totally love. I used Camille Roskelley's pattern, which you can buy here. It really is a great pattern. The instructions are very concise and extremely easy to follow. Okay, get ready for picture overload!
Here is an up close picture of the swirly quilting I did on one of the bibs. It is definitely a quilting technique that I need to continue to practice.
Here is a picture of the wavy quilting I did. Personally, this is my favorite style of quilting for the bibs. It is just a very nice simple quilting motif. It seemed as though the other ones got a little more "chopped" up after I cut the bib out of the quilt sandwich, but this one did not.
My oldest daughter was jealous of all the pictures I was taking of the bibs and wanted to get in on the pictorial action, so here is a picture of her modeling one.
And of course, here is the "typical" type of pic I get from my youngest daughter. She refused to model the bib. Instead I found her underneath my long arm quilting machine staring up at me after searching for her for several minutes. Isn't she a precious little stinker!
Well I have finally set up an etsy shop which you can find here. I have listed 8 of my finished bibs in this shop. Thanks so much for stopping by.
Linking up with Plum and June for "Let's Get Aquainted Monday Link Up".
Happy Quilting!
