Mollie Makes Patchwork & Quilting and A Give-away!


Vinage Laundy Bag by Charise Randell

Some months back, I was asked to contribute to the book "Mollie Makes Patchwork and Quilting."  Of course I jumped at the chance!  The publisher, Collins and Brown, asked for a paper pieced project to add to this skill building quilting book.

It was a fun project to design.   I was inspired by vintage laundry bags, and my favorite paper piecing patterns to make - clothing!



  The original design had the work "Laundry" embroidered beneath the clothing. Since Collins and Brown publishes in different languages I designed the sweet bee and flight path in its place : )

The individual clothing blocks are very easy to make and a fun way to combine some prized fabrics.


The bag is easy to construct and has a contrast drawstring top with contrast trim.  I chose to use a coordinating fabric from the A-line skirt.


And a red gingham lining to match the ribbon.



It is a lovely book filled with wonderful projects.  On my list it make is this adorable camera case.


And this sweet tea cozy.


Pavilion books sent me a extra copy so I am having a give away.
