Liberty and Kantha

I have a reasonably large stash of Liberty fabrics.


So when I saw a Liberty + Kantha stitch-along happening on Instagram, the idea really appealed to me.


I cut two and a half inch squares and pieced two panels to make a 241 tote bag from Noodlehead.


I backed each piece with some fusible batting and started stitching.


It was the perfect holiday project, in the car and in the sunshine!


I prepared the side and pocket panels before I went on holiday.



The glorious sun shining through really inspired me!


I was excited to return home and piece the bag together....


And before I knew it, it was finished!


It turned out just as I imagined!

Happy days!

Simply New....

As promised I have started a new and simple 

patchwork project!


I started cutting out 2.5" squares from my scraps 

about eighteen months ago...


So I decided it was time to dive in and go for it....


making 16-patch blocks....

I need 50 of these for the plan I have...


an idea I saw on Pinterest...



And here it is waiting to be pieced together!


I hope to get it together this week sometime.....

(edited: a full tutorial can be found here )

Happy sewing!
