Kissmess Card Case


Let's say you are giving someone a new tarot deck or Jessie Lawson's Sensory Reflection cards for a Kissmess present.   Once the wrapping paper is off, don't these cards deserve a nice place to live?  You can make one of these, too!  If you can't and you want one, let me know.  xoxo

Stars!

Full view but hard to see the fabrics.

Closer look, but you still can't see the fabrics.

A little bit better, but this camera sux!
I finished this UFO at the beginning of December.  Initially I had arranged all the stars on point and the edges were finished with triangles.  However, I wasn't careful enough with the squaring up on the blocks and some of the triangles did not fit properly.  So, I took the whole thing apart and cut additional squares and this went together very quickly.  I hand-stitched these star blocks some years ago and I was surprised to see how small my stitches were.  I was actually quite good at it! 

This quilt actually is more of a peach color than the camera has registered.  Someday I might get a better camera or better lighting, but if you could see it in person it would warm your heart! 

More to come!  xoxo
