Mom's NCW


Yesterday I posted about Gaylene's NCW I made her for Christmas. I realized I forgot to post Betty's NCW I made her back in Aug 2018 for her Birthday. 

I have used a warm lime green leather for the out part and Tula Pinks Squirrels for the flap. My mom Betty, loves lime green and turquoise just like I do. I used gold metal findings on this one. 


Here is the inside view. So the squirrels on the inside flap again, and then the side and card slots are my hand dyed fabrics. 



Here is my Frog wallet and Betty's squirrels together.

NCW for Sister in law


For Christmas I worked on this wallet for my Sister in law. The pattern is called Necessary Clutch Wallet. Or NCW it is called. I used a dark Navy leather on the outside and for the handle. Then I used Tula Pink's Owl print for the flap and sides. The solid purple is one of my Hand Dyed fabrics. 


There are 2 areas to put your cards. I also did this inside flap so you can put your cell phone inside and not have it flip out. 


The hard ware I used is the Rainbow finish. It was so perfect with the Owl print. I hope she loves the wallet. I know I love how it turned out. 


On the side you can see I used Chicago screws and then did not sew up the sides. I did it for my wallet. After I am happy with that part I put a dob of glue in the screw so they stay in place.

Honey Comb Quilt


The Honey Comb Quilt top is done! I finished it up at Retreat this past month. I got my hubby to help and get a quick outdoor photo. We have wind so this is a good as it got today. At least the colour shows off best in the outdoor light. 


Wind. 
I am very happy with how it has turned out. I started it with the Rainbow Scrap Challenge 2017 about this time last year. We were to dig in our scraps that were multi coloured or dark. Well I had a few scraps to work on. I sort scraps by colour and many of these prints did not fit in to a colour box. 

I will add this post to Soscrappy on Saturday when she puts up her link page to Scrap Saturday and the Rainbow Scrap Challenge. 


The indoor photo at retreat, late at night after everyone else is gone to bed. Retreat was Great! 


I also got a NCW done. What? NCW Necessary Clutch Wallet. I made this one with gold Vinyl and the KFC prints.   I was given a large box of vinyl and just had to make something with it. Now on to other vinyl colours. 


Inside there is some hand dyed gold and pink fabrics. 2 zippers and pink card slots. So happy with this wallet. 



One of our guild members is moving and had a Garage sale today. I had to go. I got 2 books for $5 each. Then a large scrap bag behind the books. I also found her batiks she was selling. good deals and I did not go crazy. I also got some free fabrics to make some dog beds and stuffing to put in them. I guess I need to make some more beds.
