Dead Like Me

I enjoyed piecing this quilt so much. The blocks are big, you don't repeat things. It was great. Some of the pieces can be cut with your Accuquilt Go! if you have the right dies. 

I worked through the piecing over about a week. 

I had some of this great black fabric left over from another project. It made the perfect border.

Dead Like Me

I have been making great progress on my Dead Like Me quilt. 

I started with the sections with black fabric. I wanted to see something that really looked like something and the eyes seemed a great start. 

I love how this pattern is presented. 

It wasn't long before I had finished one half of the top.

Dead Like Me

I did a bunch of cutting. So much cutting. I even pulled some 2.5" squares from my collection of little charms.  

This quilt has such a great collection of fabrics. I can't wait to see this one come together.

Dead Like Me

I bought a couple quilt patterns from Rose City Originals a few months ago. I've been looking for a new project and Dead Like Me kept floating to the top. I thought I may need to do some shopping. The first rule of quilting is that you should check your collection before you head out to the quilt shop. Trust me. Some of us have more fabric than we can reasonably use in a lifetime. This is the collection of fabrics I pulled, and curated. I don't know if I will use all of these, but I'm going to give it a shot.

More Glitter Vinyl Projects

I was so happy when my My PunkBroidery order showed up. This is the glitter pack. It includes 24 different colors of super fun glitter vinyl. I'm ready to stitch out all sorts of glittery fun projects!

To celebrate, I stitched out the same project I've been stitching all week. another pair of sugar skulls using this great design from Designs by Little Bee embroidery. 

I promise I'm moving on to a new project in the near future. I'll be sure to share something new on Friday. 

If you see anything here that you are willing to spend your hard earned money on, drop me a line. I've added a contact widget to the scroll on the right-hand side of the page. I'll reply and we can work on creating your new favorite thing. Afterwards, I can set up an Etsy sale just for you. 

Stitching Up In The Hoop

I can't stop stitching up these great snap tab designs from Designs by Little Bee embroidery. This is the Mini Sugar Skull on a dark blue marine vinyl. 

I love these bigger Sugar Skull Snap Tabs, too. These were stitched on glitter vinyl, my favorite. I've ordered more glitter vinyl because it is just so awesome!

The Vintage Camper and that Maneki Neko are awesome, too. 

I picked up some new vinyl colors from the local fabric store. These are going to be fun, too. When the My PunkBroidery order shows up I'm going to be stitching out even more fun. 

I borrowed a friend's KAMsnap tool to finish these up. Definitely a tool I plan on adding to my tool box. I might need to pick up some swivel clasps (affiliate links) to make them more versatile!

Keep an eye on my Etsy shop for some of these to show up. If you want something I've stitched out, by all means drop me a note and I'll set up a sale for you on Etsy.
