Quilted Casserole Carriers



If you are heading for a potluck dinner, family gathering or party somewhere away from home.  These carriers will make a very stylish way to travel with your home cooked dish. It will also help the food stay warm and ready to eat when you arrive!  I have sewed these few Casserole Carriers with my collection of strawberry fabrics.



These two are different in size. When laid  flat, they are square in shape.
                                            
                                             
But when you tighten them with the casserole inside, they look like a clover leaf  :)                                          
                                                                        
                                       
     A closer look at this smaller one which is approx. 34cm (13 1/2") square.        
                   


                                           


I have sewed some bindings on the handles of this bigger one, size approx. 40cm (15 1/2") square.



I think these carriers are a useful and handy accessory. 

I have made this one round in shape and its approx.  42cm  (17")  diameter.





                                                            Thank you for viewing. 
                            
                                                           Happy Sewing!

Quilted Tiffin Carrier Bag

Nowadays,  many people prefer to use a tiffin carrier to have our take-aways. What more when you have a pretty bag to carry it with you!  It will also help to keep the food warm while you travel. For me, I like to hang the tiffin at the back of my car seat espeacially when I am travelling alone. When I have no one to help me hold on to the tiffin,  it will not topple when I turn my car to the left or right or make a U-turn, LOL!

The size is approx. 15cm  (6") diameter suitable for a 14cm 3 tier stainless tiffin carrier.





Hope you will like my creation. Have a happy day :)

More Flex Frame coin purse

As mentioned earlier, sewing is still on.  Am glad my mood is still around!  LOL!  I have a few more flex frame in my stash, I continue to sew these type of coin purses plus a pouch! This time a little extra stitching/applique done one them.


 This bear was cut out from another fabric and applique on to this plain purple fabric.  And its quilted too.


Isn't  this cat cute?  Hand applique too!  The ears was stuffed before I  stitched them on so it has a 3D look..........


This is my favourite piece! An owl and its sold!



And last but not least, an applique  monkey.  This is a much bigger piece and I think you can use it as a eyeglass pouch :)

Have been quite a while since I last updated my blog. I have been engross with other stuff in life. Hopefully, I'll have more crafting time in the coming new year.  Anyway, yesterday I have just  finished sewing a sling bag called 'Buckets Gone Wild!  Bought this pattern from Simplicity but I've made it with some changes to suit my taste and needs and am very pleased with the result! This morning I used it for the 1st time when I had to do some errant. I just loveeeee it!




I have also made a zip pocket at the back :
