Small things

I've been making small things lately,

like sewing machine blocks.

This is my first attempt at a Singer Featherweight.

Then I went for the mid-70s looks with an orange machine.

I invoked my inner Trekkie to make two sets of tea cozies, 

using my favourite quote from Captain Picard.

The one at the left is made from a linen/cotton blend.

I also embarked on a pouch-making frenzy in September,

finishing up these two I started a long time ago.

I get a lot of love for the nesting doll prints,

but these dolls don't nest, unless of course they are all put together already

and just sitting on a row beside other sets of nesting dolls.

Here's a gang of pouches, most made using a triangle pouch tutorial here.

I like this inch tape measure ribbon, which I bought by the metre in Invermere, B.C. this summer.

Funny how Canadian quiltmakers buy in metres but sew in inches.
