I got bored...

Image
So, I was sewing some pillow shams for another crocheting project but when I got done, I wanted to sew some more. I don't really have any sewing projects in my upstairs sewing room, so I just grabbed some scraps and started basically 'paper piecing' without any paper or plan. I made three blocks on my 100 year old machine! (my newer one isn't powered at the moment... the whole rooms electrical is on the fritz). I know the picture isn't the greatest quality. Sorry.

Lots of Updates

Image
I'll try to keep this short, but there are quite a few new things up on the site! First off, I edited the layout (at least if you are not on mobile) so that there isnt as much scrolling involved when searching for a pattern. The pictures are a little bit smaller now, but I think it easier to navigate. Second, I've put up Jacques LaLean and Ginger the Tap Dancing Spider up for the Beetlejuice cartoon blocks. They have a bit more embroidery/outlining than a lot of my other designs (particularly Ginger), but I think that is because of the way they are drawn (ie cartoon). I tried to make them without so much, and they just didn't look right. Also, I put up a Pumpkin from The Nightmare Before Christmas. I based the pattern on a restoration of an actual set piece, so it is pretty darn authentic! It is also a pretty intricate pattern, so if you want a challenge, feel free to try it. You can thank Burton's hate of straight lines for that! It is up for testing, so a...

I'm on a roll!

Let's keep this pattern train rolling with a brand new pattern! Jack is up and ready for everyone to use! The only little bit I wish I could change is being able to use an actual pinstripe texture for the suit bits, but Quilting Assistant does not allow for patterns. Oh well.

Sally...again!

Thank you so much to my wonderfully generous tester who quickly put together my Sally pattern. They suggested a little edit to make the whole thing come together easier, which I have done and put the -new and improved- pattern up on the website. Fiddly bit - BE GONE! I also submitted her to Fandom-in-Stitches . Thank you, again, Sharon! I put these images up in the gallery as well.

I put up a new Tim Burton quilting pattern today! Welcome to the world, Sally from The Nightmare Before Christmas!

Cross Stitch/Color Work Patterns

Image
I've been making some Fallout 4 patterns, but they are not quilting patterns. Since Ravelry no longer allows for the posting of color work charts, I decided to do it myself and post these new patterns on my own site. These are for PERSONAL NON COMMERCIAL use. They can be used for cross stitch pattern, knitting color work or anything else you might find them useful for. You can find all my new non-quilting patterns HERE . Here is just a taste of the 8 patterns you can find up on the site!

My Newest Quilt Pattern: Zero!

Image
I finally finished another one! Zero is now up and ready for the world to enjoy. I hope he come together pretty easily for you if you decide to give him a go! He is such a good boy! I have also reordered my Tim Burton patterns so they are now sorted by movie. I hope this makes them easier to find. Let me know what you think.
