| A fun new blog hop from Madame Samm of Sew We Quilt that I signed up to participate in that will come in May. May 7-15 to be exact. I have time to figure out what I will make. So I better get creating. |

| I call this little quilt Madame Samm in Paris. |
 |
| I painted the background fabric, added some glitter paint which I squiggle-painted all over. I used wool hand dyed felt for the applique sweater, skirt and hat and a faux suede for the dog; which I then blanket-stitched around. Lots of seed embroidery stitches and French knots were added to the background fabric. |
 |
| I made this from the embroidery drawing that Madame Samm created for this blog hop and I chose to make a small quilt. |
 |
| I embroidered the hair to look more hair-like. |
 |
| The Blue Chair is what I named this embroidered quilt. The drawing of the blue chair was a design from Debbie Martinez. She also had a dress form in her drawing, but I chose to use only the chair. |
 |
| I used a hand dyed blue fabric that I hand dyed last summer. I sewed stacked buttons on the front of the arm. |
 |
| The border and binding fabric is a batik fabric. I used a tiny white rick-rack around the pink inner border. |
 |
| I made this tea towel a few years ago. I used crayons and a variety of embroidery stitches on this one. Her dress is all embroidered and I also embroidered flowers on the item she is pressing. |

| I knit this iPad cover for my daughter's iPad. I don't own an iPad. I added a Celtic button as she loves all things Irish. |
 |
| The knit stretches a bit for a perfect fit. |
 |
| The colors of the yarn seem to change when photographing them. The cover is a burgundy wine color. |

I posted last week about the Savannah bag I made that was a pdf pattern from Chris W. Designs and that's the bag I use to hold my lap top and stuff for my lap top because it is a large bag with lots of pockets. Well I got to thinking how much I liked certain aspects of this bag and thought why not reduce the size and put in fewer pockets so I could use it as my everyday bag/purse. That's just what I did. This is the smaller version of the Savannah bag.

| I quilted the batik flap and the blue fabric that I hand dyed last summer. I made a few adjustments to this bag, one being I didn't need the pen pocket or the slanted pockets. I made the hook strap longer and the flap all one piece, but shorter. |

| Back of the bag I made the zippered pocket and measured the placement correctly on this bag, lol. |

| Inside the bag I have the patch pocket and plenty of room for my wallet, sunglasses case, reader eyeglasses case, my handy strawberry bag, tissues and more. |
