And since she is also hosting the Fresh Sewing Day, here is what I made during the last couple of weeks:
First I thought I didn't make anything but thanks to Halloween I literally "put together" a few things. On the top left you can see what the witch wore (a VERY simple organza skirt). Then I experimented with fabric brooches and I made those cute little fabric buttons. The brooches were supposed to be little treats for the fellow partiers but the all purpose glue I used for the pins in the back needed to dry forever so I couldnt take them to the party :(
Oh, and I also came up with this:
For everybody who is new: I made this "fake" quilt using photoshop in order to try out the fabric layout for Lynne's Dead Simple QAL.
I had a litte poll over on Flickr about the yellow center of the quilt. And this is the version with the most positive comments (and also my favourite). If you wanna have a say, too, hop on over and check out my album and just leave a comment. I appreciate every opinion!
Hope to hear from you and I promise I'll visit your blogs, too.
Sorry, you didn't scare me off. :) love your "fake" quilt!
AntwortenLöschenLooks like you had fun! And your banner is in English! Your Dead Simple quilt is going to be so cool!
AntwortenLöschenI was just in Berlin two weeks ago - you live in a nice part of the world!
AntwortenLöschenI think if you thread paint the waterlily over the piece-work, it will look quite impressionistic.
You make a lovely witch :) Your new header looks great too or maybe that was always there and I just didn't notice it....entirely possible! I like the orange flower with the spider on top, very Halloweeny :)
AntwortenLöschenHahaha, love the spooky picture, how fun! You've made some many lovely things, your fabric flowers are my fave. :) I'm coming over from Small Blog Meet. Hope to see more of your cool creations!
AntwortenLöschenHello! your 'fake' quilt is lovely :)
AntwortenLöschenThat's a great idea for your DSQ! I have my fabric for the DSQ, but that's as far as I've gotten. Thanks for stopping by my blog, and following! You're right - its an awesome feeling getting those first few followers!
AntwortenLöschenI love your fake quilt!! I found you through the small blog meet, pretty awesome that she did that post. I can't wait to check out more of your blog & hopefully you catch mine soon. Have a great day!!

Fabulous Halloween costumes, Sana. Looks like you had a lot of fun. The fabric flower looks good.
AntwortenLöschenHi Sana,
AntwortenLöschenI went and had a look at your options I also really like the last one (4) but it might be just a little too complex for the rest of the quilt? I think the one you have chosen is fantastic... I was thinking of doing the dsqa and now you've pointed out the use of photoshop I'm even more keen lol... Although like you I'll probably end up with 1" squares...
