My day at the Stitch Me Up Bloghop

Today is my day to share my projects on the Stitch Me Up bloghop.
A big thanks to Madame Samm at www.sewwequilt.com and her great bloghop themes.
Thanks to Debbie from Busy as can Be , Cyndi from Stitch Stitch Stitch and Madame Samm herself for the fun embroidery patterns from which to select.
And a special thanks to our cheerleader, Jane at Janes Quilts and Fabrics.
 It's so fun to see all the different projects being made from these embroidery patterns.
When I received my embroidery patterns, I chose to start with the sweet floral design to make a mugrug, a purselet and a quilter's project tote. I finished with a mini wall quilt using the chair design.
This little mugrug is the perfect place to show off my creamer and sugar bowl.
 
 
This little purselet is perfect to use with my new quilt project tote.
Thanks to Jennie of Clove & Violet for this goodie Pouch, a Moda Bake Shop project.


My quilt tote is perfect for hauling several projects to sew days with my BFF's. My new container of Precensia embroidery threads fits perfectly in the quilted front pocket.
Thanks to Edyta Sitar for this pattern in the Feb,2010 issue of American Patchwork & Quilting.

I enjoy blue work and this little chair reminds me of the chair where I do my embroidery at night while watching NCIS and the RedSox.

Thanks for visiting my quilt journal/AKA my blog. I enjoyed making these items for my home and quilting. It's always so fun to add a touch of embroidery to a useful item. Scroll down to see my inspiration quilts for this bloghop and a finished quilt top Merry,Merry Snowmen from Bunny Hill.
Don't forget to visit all of today's bloggers.

    All your pieces are wonderful, Laura! Gorgeous done up in blue. Your tote will come in very handy and the tea time topper will be a smile each time you use it, I bet. What a lovely setting to display your tote!

    It does not bother me but someone is apt to suggest that you turn off your word verification that you may not even know is on? Just for the day anyway or switch over to moderated posts. I think it is the default position or some such thing

    This might help http://www.michelemademe.com/2012/02/how-to-disable-new-two-word.html

      Thanks Linda for the kind words. I'm bringing my tote to my guild meeting this morning and it's filled to the top. Luckily the snow's melting.
      I'm a newbie at this blog stuff so thanks for the advice. I got it turned off now. I hate that word verification thing myself!
