Appliquéd Fan Blocks

So - I'm slowly working on a quilt for my room.  It will eventually be 30 fan blocks...so far, I have one done! My SIL was here this past weekend and helped show me her applique tips, and let me tell you, it really helped!

Here's a picture of the completed appliqued block.

Now I just need to make 29 more, and sew everything together!  I'll just add that to my ever growing to do list! :D

Coley and Crista are twins that love to craft and are very artistic.  Their work is amazing.  You will have to check them out. Here is why. Not only are they amazing, they are having a BOGO sell! All their patterns are buy one get one free. And, if you check out their site, you will have to get some patterns! I have fallen in love!

Finished - Tote Bag and Crochet Clutch

My good friend Rebecca's one year anniversary is coming up in June, so I decided to be really good and make her a tote bag and crochet clutch!  Yes, I started and finished early!
Here are some snapshots of the finished projects!

I used THIS pattern for the crochet clutch from Moda Bake shop.  And I used THIS bag pattern, with some changes.  I used solid fabric on the sides to match the top, and I added metallic clasps on it, so there is extra fabric on top so it can close and be more secure.  

I love the colors!  Now, to make myself these bags! :D

If any of you are interested in these, I recommend this bag with this clutch, they fit perfectly together! The clutch fits nice and snug in the purse, and you have room for your yarn! :D
