Good morning cute people!!
Today is my day for the
This is my friend Ayumi's new book...
Patchwork, Please!
Let me just tell you,
everything in this book is sweet and adorable...
just like she is!
I'm not even kidding.
I love every single project in here...
you all know how I love patchwork and
Ayumi's work is no less than spectacular:)
Quite a while ago...
Ayumi told me that she was working on a book and
asked me if I would participate in the sew along.
I literally could not wait for it to come out and
to get my hands on it and make something fun.
I told her I would be thrilled!
Lindsay asked me to make the
"Triangle Patchwork Box Pouch"
on page 108
as part of Zakka Along 2.0
and I jumped at the chance!
I mean who doesn't love a sweet little patchwork bag?
I decided to make two because
why not???
It's just as easy to make two at a time:)
I used fabric from my scrappy
stash baskets that I posted about here.
Each step was fun and
Ayumi's instructions are great!
Above are both panels and bottom sections
all quilted and ready to sew.
The back of the quilted panels...
and also my chosen lining fabric.
The beginnings of one of the top sections...
and I continued until...
All finished!
These were so much scrappy happy fun to make!
Thanks Ayumi...
for such a wonderful project...
and of course a wonderful book:)
Now for the giveaway's galore!
A few of the sponsors of the Zakka 2.0 sent me some fun products to giveaway!
1. Aurifil - Lovely and useful thread packs!
2. Form and Fabric - a fun fat 1/8th bundle and a super cute sticker!
3. Pellon - Charm sample packs of their awesome products!
And that's not all..

Simply leave me a comment about this post
and you will be entered for the above 4 giveaways...

Wow! Those are just so "stinkin' cute".I am going to keep my eye out for that book, thanks.
I only recently began following you. I love your ideas. Now I am motivated to use my 30's scraps to make a quilt for an antique baby cradle using the Bitty Scrap Around the Block. I will be the perfect covering for the cradle that I used for my own babies in the 70's. Keep up the great suggestions.
Your little bags look great, every project that I've seen looks fab. Thanks heaps for your lovely blog. Eggs xx
That bag looks like just what I need for my toiletries, the zipper went on my old one. Thanks for your generosity. I love the fabric you used on your bags. Happy, happy

I love your bag and will definitely make one in the future. Thanks for the giveaway.
