Latest Creations
September 12th, 2010 @ 9:29 pmYep, you read the title right. I have some latest creations to show off. Yay me!
I actually made two creations today. I can’t believe I had time to do both (and they both didn’t take long at all…even better!).
I have to say that without Jason’s help, I wouldn’t have even been able to finish one of these creations (so thank you Jason!). He even sent me a text while I was sewing which read, “Care for a coffee or other beverage, madam? Delivery is free for a limited time”. He’s so funny (and extremely sweet). How in the world did I get so lucky?
Ok, so I could go on and on about how great my husband is, but you’re reading this post to see my “latest creations”, aren’t you?
Without further adieu…
My friend made her son a cute little ball. I immediately asked her for the pattern, but then let it sit (like everything else I’ve let sit lately). Brody and I had a playdate at her house this week and I saw this ball that she made. It kicked me into high gear with wanting to make one for Brody, so I made it a priority this weekend to do so. I love how it turned out! I love the fabrics and the color and the million of ribbon tabs (hey, the pattern called for 10 or more).
The other creation I made was this little blanket. I’ve been wanting to use these 5 inch squares from a charm pack I’ve had on hand for months. I just love greens, oranges, and blues with brown. I completely forgot to add the ribbon tabs around the whole mini blanket, so decided to just use them on one side. I also added a special feature (my own label that uses my logo from this site “three14creations”). I love how it turned out! I need to start using my label when I make more things.

They were both fun to make. I love being on my sewing machine, so was in heaven yesterday!

Love, love them both. Funny thing- the first quilt I ever made was with that charm pack (I adore the colors). It’s Coraline’s upstairs tummy quilt!

Where did you get your tags made? I’ve been wanting to get some made for myself.

I guess I should have mentioned that the first time I saw this fabric was when you displayed Coraline’s tummy quilt. I fell in love with the fabric and wanted to make something for Brody with it (but had already made his quilt). Funny, huh!
I’ll email you with the information on how I made my own tags. You definitely need to do it and use on all of your creations. How very cool that would be. I want a one of a kind Andrea piece. Seriously!

I think the ball is adorable, but I LOVE the mini blanket! The colors are fun and it’s a fun concept! LOVE LOVE LOVE!

Thanks Susan! I also love the colors of the mini blanket, but think the ball is fun (that would have been nice to make in the fun colors from the mini blanket). Hmmm, is two balls too much? LOL!
