projects for rainy days

It was raining for days!! Weather to stay inside and work on some projects. As I am going to teach patchwork and quilting to some people, I made a mini-quilt, all by hand!!! I usually do everything with the sewing machine, except for the quilting. It took quite some time! I'll still have to make a picture which I will post the next time. The students are going to make the same quilt, so now I have to select materials and make some kits for them to start.

Today the sun is shining and I noticed in the garden that the daffodils and other bulbs are peeping above the ground. Spring is coming!!!
That's why I am posting some colourful pictures, to clear my mind of the grey cloudy sky, and think of warmer, sunny times to come.
In this bag I put my pyjamas

Some time ago I made this bag for clothes-pegs. It's very practical because you can hang it around your neck.
Today I plan to make a winter bag. I bought the material already last year, but didn't find a pattern I like. I guess I have to make my own pattern; hope it turn out nice. And then, of course, it is time to start making some more summer bags, like this blue one.
