Week 2 of my 100 days of Summer challenge is finished. Dresses 8-14 are now ready for viewing!
I'm having a lot of fun putting together the outfits from my scraps! On Instagram and Facebook, I put a little survey to pick the weekly favorite! Would you like to play along? Just add your favorite to your comment by mentioning the Day number. If you are interested, you could choose one from last week also here. (Just scroll down a bit to find the dresses!)
My favorite from this week is #11.
It is hard to choose one and I kept changing my mind. 😜
Last month, I took a video class with @craftymonkies and taught by @GaryMillsDesigns to learn Kawandi quilt making. It was on my quilting bucket list for quite some time. This piece is a practice piece and is not very big and does not have the traditional Fula on the corners but decorative points on one side.
Kawandi is all hand stitched and pieced as you go from the outside to the inside. I love the drape on Kawandi quilts because you use a lighter fabric rather than batting in the layer. I'm gathering up supplies to try my hand at a larger quilt! Have your tried Kawandi quilt making?

Do you have a pattern for the doll blocks? I have some granddaughters that would love a blanket of those.
ReplyDeleteI made a paper pieced pattern using graph paper. You can see my technique in my previous post.
DeleteWhat fun girls. What is your Instagram name? Thanks for sharing in my Sew and Tell party.
ReplyDeleteWhat adorable little girls! Hard to pick a favorite outfit. Love your Kawandi quilt. What do you use in the middle if not batting? I'm curious. Thanks for sharing on my weekly show and tell, Wednesday Wait Loss.

I love your girls and I think my favourite is impossible to choose. Your Kawandi piece is lovely. Do you use flannel in the middle? I’ve not tried it, but I do enjoy doing Pojagi which is Korean quilting. Thank you for sharing on ToDoTuesday. 😁 Carol
