Turtles and oranges and penguins and the jungle!

 Cataloguing UFO #7 - here's Orange Jungle Quilt (a toddler sized quilt) - it's already sandwiched so it needs quilting, backing and binding.  I made some bibs out of the last of these fabrics so this will go as a set to Blue Hills when it's done.





UFO #8 - Turtles quilt - this quilt top measures 37" x 37" - I need to buy border/backing/binding for this one.  (See the Pages link on my sidebar to see the UFO's I've catalogued so far :D)

 Well THIS one isn't a UFO!  It's a zipper bag (for our Florida trip) based on Kristin Link (Sew Mama Sew)'s fabulous freebie tutorial :)  This one is the iPad case sized one on the list of different sizes she provides instructions for - it measures 9.5" x 11.5" :)  No raw edges and such easy construction - I just love this pattern! 

Here's the second penguin bag for my Threadbias Challenge - it measures 10"w (at the top), 6.5"w (at the bottom), 10.5" tall and 3.5" deep.  The paper pieced penguin pattern is from Pretty in Patchwork:  Holidays :)  Next up - the polar bear block!  And I think Mr. Bear will get a jingle bell on his bag, lol!

    Groovy quilts, lovely colours and of course, you had to sneak in a zipper bag. You go girl. They're great those zipper bags.
    Cheers, Anita.

    Now that orange fabric is just perfect for your trip to Florida! Love the penguin pouch too.

    And I'm sure those quilts will be well loved once they are finished and delivered.

    You've been one busy lady! Those oranges look good enough to eat. Perfect bag for the Sunshine State!
