34 year old jacket is now wearable again

 

Many years ago I made a black jacket (I was way smaller the), But i could never bring myself to throw it out. Last month i got the jacket out of the cupboard and unpicked lots of the seams and collected all my favorite black fabric i had and remade my jacket. Also added a 3D printed robot (that i had printed the netting fabric into the print)

 

 

New toy and out of that new toy comes my ROBOT

 

No guesses as to what our houses new toy is . Yes we now have a ender 3 3dprinter and here is our first attempts . Firstly the cat printed just the bottom section before failing. Then after a little play we got it to print a full cat. Ok then a fan cover after we adjusted the temperature and did up a screw or two .
What was I always going to print next? My own robot design but first attemped ended up having to be stopped as i did not put supports in it (lucky i seen that early on!) and will use that as a flat robots put together with misprints. So I then printed my robot with the supports and I am loving it for a first try.

Sea turtle Quilt

 story about the turtle quilt when i was making it I hated it there was too much plain blue and it was too flat so i cut the back of the turtle off and stuffed it , then it was just so so . Then i painted the sea grass and bubbles and it was getting better. Then i added the 9 small turtles and i had turned a quilt that was going to be thrown out the window to a quilt i love

 

Love bots

 I designed the piecing pattern using quilting assistance program inspired by a bookmark cross stitch kit I have. Pieced it together on my brother machine and quilted in on my capri long arm machine

Quilt and wall hanging Flamingoes

 

Made this in one week from start to finish for a very special person having a birthday next week. she must have gotten in the door of her house and put it on her bed straight away .

I made 20 flamingoes for the quilt but when

I put it together it was the wrong shape so took 4 off and made it into a wall quilt with just those four on it 

 

then made the quilt for her bed with the 16 flamingoes

which looked a lot better

 

she loves it, it is already on her bed . Have a wonderful birthday

Fish quilt from scraps
