Piggy Purse

This is a purse I made for my sister's 30th birthday! She really loves PIG"S and apparently she likes CHICK'S too, because when I gave it to her she went Ga Ga over the chicks as well as the pig's. I guess I should have thrown some little Lamb's in there as well.
It did not turn out quite like I hoped but all in all it was OK. Not bad for my first one, I guess I will get better at it. Any way there is another thing off of my to do list. I just keep adding to the to do list."sigh"

Kinda sad to give her away but it is going to a very good cause. I just want to thank everyone of my sweet Pickles for all their hard work on this quilt, your the best, I love you!
I'm not a very good photographer..... OK I suck! sorry!

♫That's the way♫ uh huh♪ uh huh♫ We Wonk it ♪

Sorry sometimes I just bust out on song. Here is a quilt That one of my friends made for a wedding gift. She used the wonky log cabin block that we are doing for out pickle quilt, but she put sashing in hers with corner stones. I really like the way the sashing was done in this.
Very nicely done, I can't wait to get the pickle cabin done and also my own wonky log cabin.

AN itty bitty UFO!!!

This sweet little quilt I had made for Olivia, it is a car seat quilt so it is very small, the first one I made for her did not match her cover as well as I would like but it had her name on it so I never really finished this one for her. So now that she is out of the carry seat, she did not really need another one , although she really loves her little blanky she can carry it her self. Any way I decided to give this one to a friend that just happen to have a little girl and I had given her my car seat cover up, so it will match perfect for her. YAY!!!!
This quilt was also a bit of a guinea pig, I had just got a stitch regulator on my machine so I practiced with it a bit to get used to it before I did one for a customer. It works just fine and dandy, different but very good I LOVE it!!!

I did a little bit of everything on this one! It was a fun quilt, I hope the little girl that got it likes it as much as Olivia likes hers!!!

Long Distance Pink Pickle - Wonky Log Cabin Blocks

Hey there y'all,


This is Anna from down south in San Antonio, TX. I'm the long distance, virtual, remote, pink pickle (I think there is one other but not in SA). I wanted to show you the wonky log cabin blocks I've made so far for the pickle quilt. I hope you like them. I've had lots of fun making them.

Two down, only four more to go. I might make a couple of extra, just in case. Have a great Easter weekend!

Happy Stitches,

Anna
