A girly clutch ball and quilt squares….

  I made Lorelei a pretty clutch ball to kick around the house. She does love it!

 

On another note I have started cutting 4 inch quilt squares for Lorelei`s quilt. So far I have cut all the prints leaving just the plain beiges to cut. Here is a peek of the beautiful fabrics! Five of the prints are from Lila Tueller`s Santorini line.

 

Oh and for those who are wondering what pattern I am going to be using it is call the disappearing nine patch. I found a tutorial of it here. I am hoping that mine will look similar to this beautiful quilt that I found on Flickr. I found her quilt very inspiring. I also love how she used the white with the prints. I thinks it is less busy and frames the beautiful prints.

Baby Clutch Ball

So I have been escaping reality by doing some sewing projects lately. My house is starting to look a little messy but I don’t really care at the moment. I decided to make a baby clutch ball after seeing them on etsy. I have to say that it was a lot of work and took a lot of time to make but I think that it will be enjoyed by the special someone who I made it for. Afterwards I said that I wasn’t going to make another but I think that Lorelei loved it! So I will have to make her one to kick around the house and such!

The pattern is here. I used the plump version of the pattern. It is about the size of a basketball. It seems perfect for little hands to grab onto as well.
