Quilted Post Cards</h2>
<div>
<br /></div>
<h3 style="text-align: center;">
I had never heard of these before. They turn out so cute, one side you quilt your pattern, and on the other side- it's like a real postcard! You address it, write a little note, and mail it! These were fun to make and especially fun to receive! Here are three that I made and send out to our sewing group a while back.</h3>

Round Robin Throwback</h2>
<br />
<div style="text-align: center;">
Finally, I am getting the time to post about our Round Robin! This was so much fun! We start out by sending one piece to the next person. The piece we send first, will be the center of our finished product!</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
First, is mine, after I received it back from each Round Robiner. Mickey Mouse was my inspiration and I passed it along to the others who added something perfect in each round! I LOVE it!</div>

The Pincushion Parade Has Started! </h2>
<br />
<div style="text-align: center;">
I will start off the parade with a sweet little pincushion I made out of a miniature teacup. Of course I had to use the fabric with Mickey Mouse on it ;)</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Next is this cute little basket pincushion! I have to say this one is my favorite. My mom brought this one home for me from a garage sale one day. She said she saw it and knew I would love it- she was right!</div>

<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I acquired this pincushion along the way somewhere...</div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
And finally, this pincushion I made myself using a miniature terra cotta pot. I think it turned out cute! </div>

Disappearing Nine Patch</h2>

<div style="text-align: center;">
I have been practicing more with the nine patch. I saw this idea and thought I would give it a try.</div>

Of course I had to use some fabric with Mickey Mouse on it!</div>

9 Patch Block</h2>
<div style="text-align: center;">
So I decided to try an actual "patchwork block." I cut out several 4.5 x 4.5 pieces of fabric and arranged them into a 3 x 3 block.</div>

New and Improved Sunbonnet Sue </h2>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I practiced Sunbonnet Sue again today and this time, added in a dog! I used a zig-zag stitch all the way around each piece.</div>

Pillowcase Lounger </h2>
<div style="text-align: center;">
My mom and I had seen this idea on the internet and I thought I would give it a try as one of my practice projects. It is a pillowcase lounger or floor cushion. It seemed like a great way to practice sewing multiple pieces of fabric together in a pattern or row. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
To make this, you need pillowcases and pillows- easy! Sew the pillow cases together... </div>

<span style="font-size: x-large;">Sun Bonnet Sue</span></h2>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I have been inspired to start learning how to quilt after seeing all of the beautiful quilts my aunts (<a href="http://mysismademe.blogspot.com/" target="_blank">Ida</a> & <a href="http://muchashilachas.blogspot.com/" target="_blank">Irene</a>) have made, my grandmother has made, and recently, my <a href="http://andthelittlesisterfollows.blogspot.com/" target="_blank">Mom</a> has made!</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
This experience is easier said than done... Getting used to the sewing machine, threading the needle, and winding the bobbin is tricky business for a novice!</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I was excited to start my first project of Sun Bonnet Sue thanks to my aunt, <a href="http://muchashilachas.blogspot.com/" target="_blank">Irene</a>. Here are some of the pieces we cut out together while I was visiting this past week. (I wanted to cut out multiple pieces so I could get PLENTY of practice before making the "real one.") </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<br />
<br />
<div style="text-align: center;">
I started out sewing one piece at a time. Here is the first practice attempt of her. I went around her multiple times trying out different ways of stitching. The straight stitch was easiest to use, but didn't look the greatest. I tried different sizes of zig-zag stitches also, as you can see. </div>
