Lovely Liberty

Hello to all my lovely readers....thank you for joining me here again....we have lots of lovely liberty fabrics to look at today......
...........these were very kindly gifted to me recently by alice caroline fabrics......
..........so far i have made two items (though there will be more) ....the first is a dottie drawstring bag.....
........so lovely choosing the different little floral prints to go together........
.......it was fun deciding which cords and stops to use....the finished bag is at the top of this post (it's a gift for one of my dearies) and i think i might just make some more......
..........the second make is a tumbler cushion using liberty florals with a solid off white for contrast....
........this was made with english paper piecing.......and once the patchwork was finished i hand quilted it before making up the cushion......
........it is finished off by tying ribbons at the top opening.......
.........both the pattern for the dottie drawstring bag and the tumbler cushion can be found in my etsy shop link in sidebar......
...........here is this week's quilt stack topped with a baking bowl full of vintage spools.......
.........and finally a peaceful autumn scene from our lovely walk today.....
.........thank you as always for coming to see me here and for your very kind comments.......wishing you a wonderful autumn week ahead with happy days and crafty inspirations.......take care and stay well lovelies........back soon xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

Big love too for that bowl of vintage spools, thread just doesn't look the same any more.

Your Dottie Bag and Cushion with the lovely liberty fabrics are so pretty. Lovely Autumn Scene. We are to get snow this weekend, but have all our outside work finished in the flower beds. So happy all pruning and bark mulching is finished :)! Enjoy your weekend, dear friend!

Be still my beating heart’ I absolutely love Liberty fabrics, whatever is made with them just looks lovely. I especially like the drawstring bag, so pretty. Someone is going to be very lucky indeed when they receive this present.x
