New Pattern on Etsy Store

I finally finished the pattern for the Wonky Triangle quilt - thanks to Des - and have put it on my Etsy store. Check it out on Karebear Kwilts. This is a pattern for a lap quilt. It is extremely easy to make and you can use any scraps from your stash. We made it into a block exchange at our last quilt retreat. It was fast and fun! Hope you all enjoy my new pattern.

Pattern now available

Announcing the opening of my new Etsy store called Karebear Kwiltz. The pattern for the bag that is in the last post is available. New patterns for a quick and easy apron and the wonkey triangle quilt will be coming soon. Stay tuned for more!

New Carry-On Bag

I just had to show off my new carry-on bag that I made for our recent trip to Disneyland. I drafted my own pattern so that I could accomodate the things that I needed in a bag. It has a large pocket on the outside that I used for easy access to plane tickets and itineraries. The inside has a zippered pocket on one side and the

other side has a large pocket that is sectioned into three sections. Cell phones and iPods fit nicely into these. I made the straps longer so that I can place the bag over my head and shoulder for security. The bag is lined with a thick canvas for support. It worked smashingly! I would really encourage anyone to try and start drafting their own patterns. Start simple. After a few tries, your experience will give you the confidence to get fancy. If you need to chat about how to start, let's talk. I would love to talk to you.
