Vintage Fabrics For Sale

Good Morning! Isn't the month of June flying by? We've had a lot of family activities going on. Our oldest DGS graduated from high school; DH & I attended his graduation and Open House. Four of the DGKs who live in area have been spending a lot of time here. We have video games and TV on in most rooms of the house. It's noisy, but it's so nice to have them here.
I'm still working on my detash of vintage fabris. I had slowed down as I'm also selling newer fabrics, but it's time to get back to this.
Here are two photos of some lots I put together. I have some fabrics liated in my salling blog, bur you can always conract me. I am also putting together mystery boxes for eBay listings.

Square sets, fat quarter bundles, etc.

Hello! Here in southeast Texas, it's summer already. Where did spring go? My friend said next week will reach 101; the hottest for that day since 1911. Of course, it doesn't bother me too much as I stay inside mostly. And I travel in my air conditioned car, lol.
I've been busy cutting out squares and fat quarters to sell. I've listed some on eBay and have sold some in a quilting group I'm in. The most popular size seems to be 2" squares and 5" squares. If you are interested in any size or theme, just let me know. Here is a photos of some I've cut out. Oh, they are rotary cut by me in my smoke free and pet free home.

My Mug Rug Swap

Yesterday was a "grandma" day; I had four of my grandkids at my house off and on. My 3rd DGS is spending the weekend here. Then my DD's youngest two stayed while she had errands to do. The boys were pretty good; the 2 year old just took a little attention. I did manage to work on my surgical caps, even with them here. It helped that DD cooked our dinner, lol. Oh, the older one did come for dinner.
As some of you know, I'm in eBay groups. I love the friendships I have made there. Also love the swaps we do. The latest in one of the groups is a mug rug. I'm posting a photo of mine. One side is a solid piece of handpainted fabric; the other is strips. Didn't Nancy do a great job? She is selling her handdyed/handpainted fabrics on her blog: hugginshaven, http://hugginshaven.blogspot.com/

My Newest Project!

It's a pretty day today and will be a pretty weekend. That's good as we had lots of rain yesterday. Hope the rest of the country is being safe from the storms and floods lately.
This last month or so, I had been working on market bags, lunch bags, and totebags. Then I received a request to make surgical caps. I had never done any, but I was game! I came up with 2 different styles; several different sizes. (I don't believe one size fits all is for everyone!) My buyer came by yesterday and bought the nine I had ready with her fabrics. She took eight others (made with my fabrics) to her hospital today; I'm hoping for a sell-out, lol. I will be listing them online; if anyone is interested, just e-mail me. I can customize them for you!

New Market Bags

Good Morning! DD, Janice, is having another Open House. This time there will be 4 vendors set up at the Avon Office in Port Neches. Staci will be selling Scensy; Amanada sells Avon; Janice has Tupperware; and my raggy/traditional items will be set up. Because I'm babysitting for Janice, I won't be there. My sweet DIL, Laurie, will be there for me.
This week I've been busy dreaming up market bags to sell. The good thing is if they don't sell, I get to use them! This is only three of them; they measure about 14" x 14" x 8".Oh, I've also used vintage fabrics.

My New Beach Bags

My DH helped out at a Friends of the Library book sale today. I stayed home and sewed. I did finish two beach bags I started last week. Had put them aside to work on the Sailor's Prayer quilt top and to prepare for Easter. These are a little bigger than my 1st two; about 20" by 21" by 5 1/2". They have the cutest Hula cotton fabrics and are lined and have pockets inside. I listed them on eBay today.
