ALTENEW: DREAMY BOUQUET FABRIC COLLECTION


Welcome! I am really excited for this opportunity to participate in the introduction of fabric to Altenew. I can"t decide which was my first love, paper or fabric. Let me know in the comments which is yours.

Check out the February 2022 All Things Handmade release collection page, listing all of the new products:  https://altenew.com/collections/dreamy-bouquet-fabric-fat-quarter-collection 

You have come from Nicole's Blog. Her projects are amazing!
You can start at the beginning of the hop Here,

I have made two projects with the five fat quarters that I received.

 
I quilted two pieces of the fabric together and stitched the logo on the quilted fabric.


I made two handles and sewed the zipper and handles to the short edges.


Made an end for the zipper and sewed that on. Then sewed the sides together.


For my second project I cut some white fabric and three Altenew fabrics into 5 inch squares. Then I sewed them right sides together from corner to corner 1/4" on both sides of center. Then cut down the center. Making two half square triangles



I sewed four of the squares together to make a pinwheel, then sewed three inch white strips between all the squares and around the outside.


I quilted the finished top to a soft minky back fabric that I had, then bound the edge.


My craft room is always cold. So
I can't wait to use this to keep warm in my craft room.


Your next stop is Jenny.

Thank you so much for visiting!

  7. Great project shares. I really like the quilt pattern created. Maybe my next crafty hobby can be to learn sewing. I wasn’t sure how I’d use fabric, so I’m grateful for the ideas.
