Working on a Star Wars Quilt Top


I have begun working on a Star Wars Quilt top. Anticipating when I get my quilting machine. :) I really went out on a limb with the boarder fabric. I have quite a bit of misc pieces of fabric I purchased as scraps or left over from other projects. The Fiesta print is left over from Pants I made for my mom ( love ya mom).
I was at Walmart the other day and talking with this lady who was starting up quilting. I told her have fun with it do not be consumed with colors matching. My favorite quilt is one of left over pieces from previous quilts. I feel like the beginning of this top proves my point. I have more strips cut out I will share as I go. :)

Halloween at the Farm 2017 made some Doll costumes :)

The picture above I sewed left over piece of crochet material ( available at Walmart ) together and used remaining blue Tulle to just see what I could come up with. This one is far from perfect but it was fun to try out the puff along the shoulders. The Tulle I purchased was not the best quality so I thought I would just play around with it and not feel any quilt for just letting the creative side of me loose. πŸ˜€

This was my favorite dress. the crochet top was sewn together from a roll of crochet 'ribbon' I purchased at Hobby Lobby. It was super easy and the tulle was in excellent condition. the leaves are cut from ribbon also purchased at Hobby Lobby I thought it looked very Nature. Love this one.πŸ’–

This one I used the Crochet top same as above and I used left over Orange tulle from Ziva's Great Pumpkin costume. I had been saving this ribbon for years (purchased at the Dollar Store) I cut out the owls and glued them on. I must say I saw this looking better in my head than I think it does but it is cute.

Making another pair of pants my own:)

These pantsπŸ‘– were given to me by my mother. I did like the way they fit but felt like they were a bit boring. So it took me a little while but I found a bleach pen and drew designs on both the front and back. After that dried I cut some slits in the front and patched it with yellow bee material. ( purchased at Walmart LOL) --( after all bees are all the rage now, right...... hehe) I had purchased some scrap material at a local quilt shop and I used the light weight corduroy to make a flair. I was going to use blue corduroy and blue bee material but my husband said the yellow will stand out more. He was absolutely right the yellow was perfect. I machine embroidered a flower🌻 on each flair and boxed in the patches with a decorative stich available on the machine. The slits will open up after a few washes these are one of my favorites. I love how they look so bright. Great call on the yellow. ❤❤😍😍😍😍

Forgive the awkwardness of the photos.... Its not that easy to take pictures looking down. HAHA
