Mycah's New Coat


Here is Mycah's new coat. It was pretty fun to make. I enjoyed putting the zipper in. It has pockets on the sides. It called for elastic around the arms, but i opted not to put it in, thought it would look better without. It's kinda big...lol, but all the things come out big. It was the smallest size I could find...xtra small. He likes how soft the fleece is. Shane really likes this coat and wants one made of the same fabric. So I will get his fleece and Trin's fleece next.

Here is the back of the coat

Harlequin Hearts


Here is my finished Harlequin Hearts quilt wall hanging. It came out wonderful. I made this for my mom. This time when I used the invisible thread to quilt it it worked pretty good for me and I didn't have a hard time with it. However when I tried to use it to blindhem stitch the hearts down it would not work, so I had to use the zigzag stich around the hearts which still came out looking really good. I am really pleased with how good this turned out. It is a beautiful wall hanging. I am hoping to make more (wall hangings) as gifts in the future (as time allows).

Here is an upclose pic of one of the hearts.
