Quilted Wall Hangings to Hang Vertically or Horizontally

6/28/2018

0 Comments

 
I've been trying to complete more long/tall quilted wall hangings that can be hung either vertically as an accent piece or horizontally over a bed or sofa.  I've just added two wall hangings to my Etsy shop that can be placed either in the vertical or in the horizontal position. They're both on Etsy at www.etsy.com/shop/SimplyHandmadeinNC.

And a third one is in the works.  In April, when we were on a trip to Washington DC (way too crowded), I brought my sewing machine and worked on a spiderweb quilt … green batiks on black background.  It's waiting for me to get to the quilting part.  Sometimes (maybe a lot of the time) it takes awhile to figure out what the quilting should be.  It's another long quilt for vertical or horizontal positioning.  I'd never brought a sewing machine on a trip before but it was a good use of time in the evenings at the hotel, especially if you are somewhere for more than one night.

New Green Color Block Tote Bag

4/1/2018

I saw this green fabric and had to have it.  I'm talking about the fabric on the right side of this new green color block quilted tote bag. It's a mini dot fabric called Dimples.  So, one of my favorite greens and, on top of that, polka dots.  I also love color block designs.  Notice the new faux suede labels for SimplyHandmadeinNC.  I'm calling this bag a medium ... 14" wide at the bottom, 13.5" high and 5" deep.  It's 19" wide at the top with antique brass D rings and rivets on the fabric straps.  I'm thinking that maybe others are calling a bag this size a large.

Shabby Chic Slouchy Travel Tote

Slouchy Travel Tote for Women in Pink and Brown Small Print Fabrics
This quilted tote bag has the shabby chic look. It's currently available in large and extra large.  The XL is 24 1/2" wide at the top!  But even the large size bag is 20 1/2" wide at the top.  This would be great for short trips rather than taking a suitcase.  Main colors are pink, brown and white but there are also touches of aqua and yellow.  The aqua decorative tie on the strap and the yellow lining bring the look together.  Each bag has two pockets inside.

Now on Etsy at SimplyHandmadeinNC.

Thanks!  Merrie
