The Sky’s the Limit Tote Bag
The astronomy theme for this issue reminded Betty Biberdorf of a phrase she shares with her granddaughter when she leaves to go home. They exchange phrases: “I love you to the moon and back” and the other answers, “I love you more than all the stars in the sky”. Inspired by special moments like these, Betty created a tote bag for when her granddaughter sleeps over. With the use of the breakthrough features on my PFAFF® creative icon™ 2 sewing and embroidery machine she incorporated the Northern Lights, stars, and a bright moon along with the special phrases. This is an intermediate project with step by step instructions on how to work the tote bag on the creative icon™ 2. Photos included. finished measurement approximately 18” [46cm] square
Nautical Fabric Postcard
Brandy Maslowski made a quick and easy nautical postcard inspired by the desire to connect with close friends who have been travelling the world on their 47-foot catamaran for the last 5 years. In their 3rd year of travelling, they invited her to join them for a memorable 2-week trip in the Caribbean. As you can imagine, it is difficult to buy gifts for boat dwellers as space is perfectly planned and at a premium. Brandy thought a fabric postcard to be the perfect handmade gift for when her sailing friends will be at a certain port for an extended period.
