churunga	Posted - May 24 2020 : 10:02:09 PM I have started this new thread to replace the old one which was just too full. Here is something I'm working on. I'm using fabric from the fabric swaps. Marie Sister #5142 Farmgirl of the Month May 2014 Try everything once and the fun things twice.

Audra Rose	Posted - Mar 28 2025 : 09:23:50 AM I also have needlework projects that are just lying in a drawer. Now I've got some ideas on how to use them! Here are the 2 April fabric friendship quilt blocks I just finished. Minimal swearing this time! Vanessa Farmgirl Sister #6754
Blessed in Colorado	Posted - Mar 28 2025 : 07:57:04 AM You have been busy Sarah. I hope you are doing better after your surgery. All the bags and pouches you made are beautiful and useful. Continued healing and feeling better. Sending prayers.

mrssarahhall	Posted - Mar 28 2025 : 07:24:56 AM Before I got in the organizer kick, I decided to try and use some of my embroidered and cross stitch pieces to make into items I will use versus having them in a bag in the craft room, here are a few of the creations I can up with: A book pouch: A booklet to organize my embroidery and cross stitch patterns and kits: And a little project bag to keep supplies together: Sarah Farmgirl # 5223 "For beautiful eyes, look for the good in others; for beautiful lips, speak only words of kindness; and for poise, walk with the knowledge that you are never alone." - Audrey Hepburn All good things are wild and free- Henry David Thoreau
mrssarahhall	Posted - Mar 28 2025 : 07:21:48 AM I have been having such a good time making organizers for my various crafts! This is a roll up organizer to keep all the floss for a cross stitch project together and easy to see, and I am proud to say I designed it from scratch: I also made organizers for my Crochet supplies: My knitting bags: A cute needle book using scrap fabrics: I wound up having surgery and it took away my ambition for a bit but next up is a big bag to organize all my Embroidery/cross stitch and hand sewing supplies :) Sarah Farmgirl # 5223 "For beautiful eyes, look for the good in others; for beautiful lips, speak only words of kindness; and for poise, walk with the knowledge that you are never alone." - Audrey Hepburn All good things are wild and free- Henry David Thoreau
quiltee	Posted - Mar 27 2025 : 10:44:36 PM The colors used for each quilt are the colors the kids chose. And they are bright.

katmom	Posted - Mar 27 2025 : 8:41:24 PM Oh wow, such creativity,, Quilts, buttons & crocheting... I am half tempted to dig through my fabric stash and get creative.. or,, have a glass of wine and enjoy looking at all of you creative ladies hand works.. >^..^< Happiness is being a katmom and Glamping Diva!
Wanda Sue	Posted - Mar 27 2025 : 3:29:36 PM Linda I just love this, I’m sure the kids love that y’all cared enough to sew their ideas into an actual quilt! A day hemmed in prayer is less likely to unravel. Farm Girl #3677 Farmgirl of the Month: Aug/2022
Blessed in Colorado	Posted - Mar 27 2025 : 12:58:58 PM Vanessa, your quilt is wonderful and I too love the butterflies. Linda your quilts are so colorful and fun, the children will love and treasure them I am sure.

quiltee	Posted - Mar 27 2025 : 12:38:08 PM Here is a picture of the four 1st grader quilt tops I have finished. I am going to a work session tomorrow morning to work on some more of these. We have about 24 more to get done in a couple weeks.

Audra Rose	Posted - Mar 26 2025 : 5:01:34 PM It was a creatively productive day. I attended a Skills Day. I chose classes to make a butterfly with glued buttons and in the afternoon I learned Swedish weaving. When I got home I finished the binding on my latest quilt. Vanessa Farmgirl Sister #6754
MaryJanesNiece	Posted - Mar 26 2025 : 11:56:01 AM Thanks Wanda Sue! I agree. He is one of my favorite characters so I couldn't leave him out! Krista Farmgirl Sister #528 Farmgirl Of The Year 2025
Wanda Sue	Posted - Mar 24 2025 : 3:25:06 PM Krista, I love it, I’m sure Dobby would be so grateful! A day hemmed in prayer is less likely to unravel. Farm Girl #3677 Farmgirl of the Month: Aug/2022
MaryJanesNiece	Posted - Mar 24 2025 : 2:15:54 PM Dobby is done! Krista Farmgirl Sister #528 Farmgirl Of The Year 2025
Nancy Joplin	Posted - Mar 21 2025 : 9:46:38 PM Very cute quilt! Great job! Nancy 8352
Audra Rose	Posted - Mar 19 2025 : 4:50:37 PM Marie, I love the quilt block and may use it for one of our friendship quilt blocks. The thread cutter looks cute - if you send it to me I'll have to figure out how it's used! Linda, the quilt guild project is so helpful to those little ones learning fractions. They can look back at the blocks they designed and remember the lesson. Vanessa Farmgirl Sister #6754
MaryJanesNiece	Posted - Mar 19 2025 : 1:15:20 PM Linda, that turned out great! I love it! This project is amazing. Krista Farmgirl Sister #528 Farmgirl Of The Year 2025
Wanda Sue	Posted - Mar 17 2025 : 7:09:51 PM Linda I think this is the most wonderful project ever!! A day hemmed in prayer is less likely to unravel. Farm Girl #3677 Farmgirl of the Month: Aug/2022
quiltee	Posted - Mar 17 2025 : 5:51:36 PM Here is the first kids quilt I just finished. And a picture of another one I am working on. Finished quilt with picture of her paper quilt I worked from - A boys quilt I am working on now Some of the kids get very creative with lots of pieces in a block. One of the quilters had a quilt to do with 45 pieces in one block. I choose the easier ones. Lol!

MaryJanesNiece	Posted - Mar 17 2025 : 1:23:24 PM Linda, I absolutely love that idea! Everleigh is in first grade and I just know how excited she would be with getting a quilt like she designed! All of you really make a huge difference for those kids. I look forward to seeing yours completed. Heather, those look great. I love the fabric. Your niece is going to love them.
