Snail’s Trail - Project Quilting challenge 12.4

 This week for project quilting our challenge was to be inspired by the traditional Snail’s Trail quilt block.  

Using the Sea Swept variation of the more traditional Storm at Sea pattern, I made this pillow featuring my first ever invisible zipper!

Virtual Vacation - Project Quilting challenge 12.3

 This week's Project Quilting challenge was Virtual Vacation.  

I made a water bottle sling years ago and it has gone with me on many travel adventures. It’s definitely starting to show its age, so it was time to make a new and improved version.



The original was made from this pattern: Walker's Water Bottle Sling by Whistlepig Creek Productions

The new one follows the pattern pretty closely, but is significantly larger. I now have plenty of room for my one quart water bottle and with the two outer pockets, I can carry my phone, ID, keys, money etc.
