Panda Bear Cushions

My mother asked me to make 2 more of these panda bear cushions I wrote about in this post.
 

Since then our house burned and it was sadly put on the back burner.  But with her upcoming birthday, I decided there is no better time to get this over and done with.
 
It felt really good to gave them to her this afternoon on her 78th birthday.

Shades of Red - Block 1

I am working on a project I fell in love with a few years ago.  But, as it is not my design, I can't sell the pattern.  I am however selling the different elements I designed using my own cliparts.

Although the fabric I used had dots on it, I added beads on top of it.

Advanced Beginners Quilt - Finished!

My 2015 project is finished!  I learned a lot and thoroughly enjoyed making this beauty.

Using satin and taffeta was quite a challenge but well worth in the end.

The striped border and corner blocks.


A beautiful addition to the guest room.
