WIP Wednesday updates :)

Back in the land of sewing - a happy quilter am I :)

I haven't made much progress on the Snooker Quilt but I did make a mock-up of a corner pocket using some scraps. It was tricky because I have to get the scale right otherwise it will look silly. I think this should work okay and will make one out of the 'real quilt fabric' tomorrow so fingers crossed that works out better than my wonky balls:


And for the fabby Fran @ Patchy Rose, who won my Birthday Giveaway and asked for a purple Pants Bag, I wanted to try something new so I dug out my purple scraps and some 1/2 yards I've been hanging on to for a special occasion! Had a flick through one of my books for some inspiration:


And here is a bit of scrappy loveliness which will find its way into the completed bag:


I won't show any more photos until I know Fran has received her parcel so that she can have a nice surprise :)

Linking up with the lovely Lee @ Freshly Pieced WIP Wednesday

  4. There's nothing like a bit of sewing to make the day seem right. Looks like your balls fit perfectly into the pocket. (Does that sound right?)
