Chickadee Hair Quilt!!!

Wow, this is what i worked on all last night.
EtsyMom is a Street team of Moms at Etsy.com and this is part of what we are all about!

Whimzy Pinzy inspired me to get off my tush and work with Chickadeebeads button that I bought a few weeks ago! I really love the idea of using someone else's creation to then create a new item...kinda like a round robin in the quilting world. Well this one will stop at HappyHouseQuilts.etsy.com and be available for YOUR enjoyment and fashionista days! I love the rouching and the simple designs...the hand dyed fabric worked perfect too!

Ruff Quilt(tm) Happiness!

Finally got a model for the tiny felt bone Ruff Quilt (tm). Thanks so much to Moonshimmer, please visit her shop, she was so nice to offer her mom's dog to be my model.

Meet Matilda! She looks spunky and now fashionable wearing a handmade Ruff Quilt(tm)!

Do you have a proud puppy that needs some bling? Shop at Happy House Quilts and search Ruff Quilts(tm).

Search etsymom first! Thanks!

Inspiration needed!

This bead is intended to be put into a hair quilt in the next few weeks. I really love the look and the delicate nature of glass. My oldest daughter's favorite color is yellow so this is so lovely. Quilting to me is very much like stained glass work and I thought that including this object would really make a new piece shine! This bead is so beautiful and came from Chickadeebeads at etsy. She sells beads and buttons for knitters and jewelers and who knew she would ever sell a button for a Hair Quilt? Looking forward to getting some creativity time soon!
