Plover pouch!

Posted on Instagram:

I picked up this appliquéd bag kit in Taipei and it came with minimal instructions in Chinese (thank you, Google translate) and I decided to finish it using the Plover Pouch pattern. Sewed entirely by hand because I was too lazy to pull out the sewing machine. 😅 #noodleheadpatterns #ploverpouch #yonglefabricmarket #handsewn

Storm at Sea progress

I’ve stalled a bit on this quilt, so decided I needed to see what the final top would look like. I laid out most of the completed blocks on the spare bed to get an idea.

Laying it out helped a lot. I like the way it’s looking. For a while there, I wasn’t sure it would look sharp, that the fabrics would just mush together, but I think it sparkles!

I have about twenty more blocks to go and then I lay it out fully to ensure not too many fabrics are next to themselves. Then it’s sewing into rows and the rows into a top!

I just remembered that I think I planned to add a border as well… it might have to be pieced. I don’t think there is enough fabric left.
