***2012**

Oh my goodness!!!  It was a very busy 2012!  I was lucky enough to be published in a few of my favorite sewing and quilting magazines!
It was incredibly gratifying to contibute to Stitch - I designed two skirts that are in their Spring 2013 issue!  It was fun to go back to my roots in fashion design!!
Details:
From Upper Left, clockwise:
Pomme Potholder - Stitch Spring 2013
Rainy day tote - Stitch Spring 2013
Cozy Slippers - Stitch Spring 2013
Two Dresses - Quiltmaker 100 blocks Issue 6
Cozy Slippers - Stitch Spring 2013
Uptown/Downtown Skirts - Stitch Spring 2013
Gathered Clutch - Stitch Gifts 2012
Quilt Blocks Sachet Trip - Stitch Gifts 2012
 
 
I designed more paper pieced patterns than I realized!! 
 
 
My Ringo Pie blocks numbered five!  I'm a bit behind but look forward to catching up this month!
 
 
 
My Cocorico Bee Blocks numbered six though two are for Leila's Where the Orchids
Grow : )
I'm also behind here and looking forward to catching up.
 
I love to make bags and pouches!  The purse in the upper left hand corner will be a completed pattern.....soon : )
 
 
And lastly, some miscellaneous makes, most of which were for swaps.
 
Happy 2013 to everyone and Happy Creating!!

    I love the slippers! What magazine/issue were they in? I bought the stitch gifts volume just so that I could get the pattern for your gathered clutch. I've only made one so far, but it turned out adorable!!!

    Charise, I'm quite gobsmacked by your productivity! Such a lot of beautiful designs you have fit into one year. They're all gorgeous. Such a talented lady! I can see myself using a few more of your patterns this year. The cushion I made for my Gran with your potted tulip pattern is very well loved by her :)
