Fabric Love Friday! Grey Batik Edition.

This is the second in a series of grey batiks that I have acquired over the years. I don't know the designer's or the collections since batiks have no description on the selvage edge. I would love comments if anyone knows the designer's and the names of these beautiful fabrics.

The Quilted Block - On Point Grid

For this block I did a basic grid using my walking foot starting with the center lines and working my way outwards.

Some of these early designs might see quite basic but it's good to practice even the basics. When this quilt is finished I want a sampler of sorts of different techniques whether it be my first try at them or ones I've mastered.




Thanks for reading♥

Mixer Cover Pattern

After brushing the dust off of my beloved kitchen aid mixer and baking a batch of cookies for my hubby a light bulb went off. I need a mixer cover to keep my kitchen aid clean and dust free so it's ready to go when baking inspiration strikes! So I decided to make one, and I created a pattern to go along with it.

LOVE avocados so naturally I had to make my cover using this delicious fabric from timeless treasures.


The pockets on the side can hold instruction manuals, accessories, or whatever you want to have at the ready with your mixer.


Under my cover (oh my!) I have my splatter guard and my 3 different mixing attachments inside my bowl. My cord is securely wrapped around the base. All of this fits easily under my cover. There's even still room left in the bowl for other accessories. 


This is a great gift idea, perfect for: birthdays, bridal shower or wedding gift, house warming gift. Great thing is you can customize this mixer to coordinate with the recipients kitchen theme or colors.
