Getting quilty mail is always fun but getting
quilty mail that comes in packages with dots…
...that’s exceptionally fun and super special.
Stephanie, who blogs at Rummage and before that at Loft
Creations, wrote Uncommonly Corduroy. I have
previously shared how much I love this book of bag and quilt patterns. You can see some but not all, of the bags I made
from her book here and here.
The one pattern I had not tried was Stephanie’s
Just Jane bag. That is until she
surprised me with a kit containing all of the fabrics and notions I needed to
make it.
The kit contained 21 wale
corduroy, a fabric I had not previously used.
It is so easy to work with and I will definitely be using it again. She also included a mini charm pack of Color
Me Happy by V and Co. for Moda. I love
this line of fabric, it reflects some of my favorite colors.
I took the opportunity to test the new little Pfaff
by making my new tote. The machine
passed the test. It transitioned very nicely from
just piecing to quilting through Soft and Stable. I’m really loving the built-in walking foot.
Thank you Stephanie for your kind generosity! I love my Just Jane bag.
Very nice bag! Good to see you are getting acquainted with that new machine! :)
ReplyDeleteVery nice! I have only made a couple bags and none looked so nice as yours.
ReplyDeleteWhat a nice way to become new best friends with your Pfaff. Your bag looks amazing. I'm so very happy you enjoy bag making, corduroy and my book as well. Thank you for sharing the corduroy love.
ReplyDeleteOh My Goodness!! Stephanie picked the perfect "Florida" colors for you and you turned out an absolutely adorable Just Jane! I'm so glad to hear you've discovered how wonderful the 21-wale corduroy is to work with, too! I think you and your new Pfaff were meant to be!
ReplyDeleteCheers!
Wow! What a blessed package you received, and the bag is adorable!
ReplyDeleteLooks like you will be having fun sewing. :-)
Joy to you!

That is a wonderful gift and you did such a great job on the bag.
ReplyDeleteWow, I love this bag! What a sweet little package you received in the mail! You did a wonderful job putting it all together. I am a bit jealous that you have a built in walking foot!!! Didn't even know there was such a thing....
