WIP Wednesday 10/2/13

I've got lots of projects in the works:
I pin basted this bad boy on Sunday and I'm ready to start quilting.

I found the inspiration for my next quilt start - gonna work on this today - very excited.


I've got four of these tablet covers ready to be put together so that I have some to put on my etsy site. I will have these finished by Friday.

So, I've got lots to do - lots to start and finish. So excited. I feel like I'm finally out of my funk. Gonna go and paint with my girl before I get started on the machine. linking up with Freshly Pieced.

Make something!

Some stuff I made and who wants to link up on Mondays?

I made a few things that I wanted to show off and I went looking for a Monday link-up and couldn't find one, so I'm thinking about starting my own.

First, the completed thingys:

a tablet cover - even better than the first

different fmq in each strip of Glimma

inside

This one even stands up.

Star Trek communicator cell phone holster for my mum.

I just had to make another tablet case. This one is much sturdier and just better. I think that the first one will have to go in a box of stuff that I've made and my MIL will get the good, Glimma tablet cover. I will make another for me and am going to be making more in different sizes for my etsy shop. They are so fun to make.

The second thingy is a holster for my mum's cell phone. She complained to me that she doesn't always have pockets in her pants, or she doesn't like to use pockets - I'm not sure, now. but she definitely wanted some sort of carrier that she could wear that would hold just her cell phone. I made this one out of star trek fabric with a navy blue/gold sparkle dot on the inside. The strap is long enough to wear cross-body and she can also tie up the end and wear it over her shoulder. I'm rather pleased with the result.

I was wondering if anyone would like to post here on Mondays? I was thinking about hosting a "look what I made" link-up for things that you've stitched up over the weekend. Please let me know if you are interested.

Linking up with Lee@Freshly Pieced.

Tablet protection

I made a cool thing this afternoon. I like it so much that I'm gonna make one for myself tonight with a few tweeks. I made a tablet case for my MIL's Samsung Galaxy 2!

The front


The inside

Inside under the tablet
I used this tutorial from Clover & Violet and just sized it for the Galaxy 2.

The outside is a block that I made from Pile 'o' Fabric's Modern BOM. I had sized it down and didn't make anymore, so I just had this random block lying around.  My MIL really likes the color green, so I thought that would be a great block to use.

I'm planning to use some Glimma fat eighths for mine. I'll have pictures for you soon. I'm going to add an extra flap and some stiffer cardboard to mine so that it will function as a stand, also. I can't wait.

Gonna get started.
