Chicks, Bunnies, and Flowers
Last week, with Easter just around the corner, I switched from mask making to Bunny and Chick bag making for my two grands.
Here is the fabric I used, and a free online pattern I found.
Pink will be for a bunny, and the yellow will be a chick.
Bags constructed, but not filled with candy. I decided to line the bags. I used a Pigma marker to draw the chick eyes & beak and bunny eyes, nose & mouth.
Filled with candy, aren’t they cute!?
Now I’m hopping down another rabbit trail. Helen Godden announced a free quilt-a-long on her Facebook page. I’m following along on her Flower Power free motion quilt-a-long. She will be demonstrating FMQ on 9 different flower motifs.
Tulip. I’m using hand dyed fabric from Vicki Welsh. I think Helen is showing a different flower motif ever 2 days.
And, I actually sat down and stitched 2 more blocks on the Curve It Up quilt! I’ll show pictures later. I do have to go back and do background, which I think I’ll do once I have the pieced blocks quilted.
How is your week going?

Such cute little bags. I got those patterns but just didn’t get to them. Save for next year!! LOL Thanks for the heads up about Helen’s stitch along. I love your tulip! Did you do that on domestic or longarm. My domestic skills aren’t great, so this might be a good chance to practice them! Have a good week!

Hi Sharon! Those are just the cutest little bags for the brands. I just HAVE to PIN these for next year. I know three littles that will need to have a bag of their own. I’m also going to pop over to the Flower Power link you provided. Thanks for linking up this week. ~smile~ Roseanne
