Saturday's Chart Seam Treatments

Here are today's seam treats. Sharon mentioned to me that these could be used on little band samplers too. Geez, why didn't I think of that? My brain is in crazyquilting mode and can't think of much else! Be sure to stop by Sharon's In A Minute Ago Blog to see her embellishment series "100 details in a 100 days".

Besides crazyquilting, I've been wanting to play with my extensive collection of vintage iron-on transfers. So I spent 2 hours yesterday afternoon tracing a few of my small patterns. As I mentioned the other day, I'm really into cool little handbags so I want to make a few and thought it would be a neat use my transfers.

This is a Vogart design.

I only did one seam on this yesterday. I used the "Circle" design that I posted below. At the moment, it greatly competes with the strawberry print, but once I bead it, it will really pop out! It looks really cool in person! I plan to add some large beads to the center of the cirlces and then of course, seed beads to the fans.

Strawberry Block Day 3

I decided to go back to this project since I haven't had time for sewing. I like to stitch in the evening while I watch a little television. Anyway, I added some vintage lace (Gina do you recognize the piece at the top?) and then I did some embroidery on two seams.

I'm really into unique handbags lately so I think I'll make this into a handbag rather than a wallquilt which was my original intention.

I expect to have more stitching time later today so hopefully, I'll have an update for you tomorrow.
