Seat Belt Covers


Selling a few of my goods at work today. I am thinking of getting a booth at local craft fair.  I thought I would test a few of my ideas at work.  I sold 8 seat belt covers today, they did better then I thought.  I think they will be on my list for the craft fair.  What do you think would be a good seller?

Lady Jordan Galliard Dress


Photo credit goes to Bryan Catalano
 
This is a dress I was commissioned to make by a friend.  The characters name is Lady Jordan Galliard, she is part of some still life action figure photography.  I am always amazed by the photos he does with action figures and the story that comes from them.

Weekender Travel Bag

 
I love my weekender travel bag.  Now I have the cutest bag and it even has fabric that matches my luggage.  It's a really big bag and will hold more then enough for a weekend getaway. The pattern is by Amy Butler http://www.amybutlerdesign.com/products/patterns_display.php?id=22.  Its not a project for beginners but if you have a little sewing experience and a good sewing machine its a great idea.  Took me about 3 weekends to complete.

Ribbon Box Quilt

 
Merry Christmas
 
Finished this Christmas Quilt just in time for the holidays this year.  I am very proud of it, I put in up on the living room wall.
 
 I found the pattern online at http://cloud9fabrics.com/projects/make-it-sew/. They called it Ribbon Box Quilt and its a very easy pattern to follow.  I really enjoyed making it. 
 
 I also have to give credit to Material Obsession, https://www.facebook.com/pages/Material-Obsession-Quilting/157010280996359 for the quilting.

Witch Pillow

 
 I found the free paper piecing pattern online at http://quiltdoodledesigns.blogspot.com/2012/10/something-wicked-this-way-comes.html.  If you know how to paper piece it was super fast and easy.  Added two buttons for the eyes and one big button for the spider.  I think it turned out very cute and a great addition to my home for Halloween.
