I am always sewing, but rarely posting! However, I'm going to be in a couple of craft markets this fall so posting pix here of items that I will be selling. I will add as I make more and/or get organized to take more pix of things already made. Also - will post more detail about where/when as it is nailed down.

Quilt Give Away
I have, or at least had, over 40 quilts piling up on my "quilt storage bed". I decided it's time to start re-homing them. I'd sell them, but it's difficult to sell quilts for what they are worth in terms of time, skill, materials, etc. Most people don't understand that the materials alone can mount into the hundreds of dollars for one quilt.
Also, I'm lazy. I have no interest in selling on line. I don't want to deal with mailing, fraudulent claims of non-delivery or damage, etc. So... I am giving them away. But not to just anyone. I have many special friends and family members that I consider "quilt worthy" and it has always been my intention to give each of them a quilt. So as I see them, which is challenging in these COVID Times, I have been asking if they would like to choose a quilt to take home with them. So far, I've given six away....
More Bags!
Yes - it's a new hobby - bag making....
I made several for friends as hostess gifts, for my daughter-in-law as a b-day gift and for my neighbour as a commission.

And matching tote bags (Pelican Tote by Bagstock patterns). Fronts and Backs. I did some embroidery on all fronts and backs.

Another Applique Quilt
Joan R brought me another of her applique quilts for quilting. I don't really do customer quilts any more, but I've kept Joan as a "special" customer and I will do for friends (as I did for Karen, previous post).
Hand Done Cross Stitch
Karen worked for years doing the cross-stitch on these blocks. Then she stitched them together and asked if I would quilt the quilt for her. It's a queen size and I didn't get a great "entire quilt" pix, but here are some pix of the quilting.

Show Off!
Here is another pattern! Just released! What the Hex?
Designed to use some travel themed prints I had collected over a few trips. New York, San Fran, Seattle, other. I called it Fantasy Travel because, well, made in early "COVID times", you know. All travel at this point is fantasy.
Find the pattern at my Esty NoRulesQuilting shop or on Quilt Pattern Mart.
