Three More Patterns...

I have 3 more patterns to show you! 

This first one is fun and easy 

and made from one 10" square of each 

of the

 Millie's Closet prints...

along with tiny pinwheels 

in each corner sashing:)

I named this quilt after my 

Great Aunt Isabelle

 who just lived down the road 

a few houses from me 

in the small town (Herriman)

where I grew up.

She was my Grandma Millie's 

oldest sister

 and was a wonderful cook as well

 as a wonderful quilter.

She was a very kind lady who worked hard to take good care of her large family.

I have very fond memories of 

Aunt Isabelle and I was in her home often...

I was in charge of taking her 

extra cream from our cows:)

Her home always smelled so good because she always had bread baking and something wonderful cooking on her 

old fashioned stove...

which she still preferred to use 

even after my Uncle Elt bought her a

 brand new modern range:)

Next up is a mini quilt and pillows named after my Great Aunt Marjorie who was also one of my Grandma Millie's 5 sisters.

Aunt Marge lived in Riverton with my 

Uncle Tom and their children.

(she actually lived a few houses away 

from Mr. Honey whom I didn't meet

 until we were both 12)

Riverton was 5 miles away from Herriman!

Because my Grandma and

 her sisters were very close...

I saw her often and I especially 

remember her being very 

put together

 at all times and up with 

the latest in fashion.

Her home was always spotless

 as was her garden and her aprons!

I also remember her lovely embroidery 

and her tiny quilting stitches 

that she prided herself on...

9 to the inch to be exact:)

Next up are covered hangers.

Each are made from one fat quarter 

along with a few buttons on some and

 some different trim on others.

I thought it would be fun to

 sew up a bunch in honor of the theme  "Millie's Closet".

It was really fun to quickly

 stitch up a covered hanger using

 each and every print in the line!

I crocheted some lace on the

 bottom of a few...

Bound the bottom edges of some and 

topped them off with a fabric flower with a covered button center.

On some I used trim from the

 Riley Blake Sew Together:)

Of course the directions for each hanger...

trim... and flowers 

are included in the pattern.
