I just ordered this foundation paper piecing pattern from Ten Cow Quilts on Etsy. I'm going to make this star to sew to the back of my denim jacket.
I like to sew, quilt, crochet and knit in my free time and this blog is all about my projects, past and present.

Key Fob Wristlets
I ordered the webbing, fabric and hardware from three different etsy shops. The webbing is 1.25" wide cut into 14" length. I cut the fabric strips 2" wide x14" long. Turned the long edges of the fabric under and sewed the fabric to the webbing. Added the hardware with the help of pliers and I was done. Preparation took about 40 minutes and sewing and assembling took another 40 minutes. I made 8 of these altogether. Fun to make. These are a useful and customizable gift.
Crafting and Sewing Again
I've been busy settling into my new home. I did take the time to do some sewing over the last month.
I made some simple elastic waist skirts to wear around the house, a pillow cover, and I finished the curtains for the second closet.
Today I finished knitting the pink/purple scarf I started earlier in the year. It has 9 colors of different shades of pink and purple yarn. It measures almost 13 feet. It will be cosy in winter if it snows again.
Here are two pictures of the knitted scarf.
Here is a picture of the pillow cover.
