This little table is great to take with you on sewing retreats or just to keep by your side at the sewing machine while piecing lots of smaller pieces.  I love having this next to me while I'm paper piecing or making a lot of similar blocks.

Our 1st Book!!

 

I can't even begin to express my excitement about our first book! It's been really hard keeping it a secret with ya'll!  This book started back in July 2012 and all of the patterns/made projects were finished and shipped to the publisher October 1, 2012.  So, it's been a while and I'm so excited that I can finally share it with you!  

 

 

My Mom and I collaborated on this book and it's called Sewing Accessories at Home & on the Go! It includes 10 projects that will help organize your sewing room and make carrying projects to sewing retreats easier!  From pincushions, a ruler organizer, to a huge bag that will carry all of your rulers and rotary mat as well as fit your machine in it. I'm waiting on my samples to come back from the publisher, and when they do I will posting more details about each project with lots of photos!

We had so much fun working on this book together and hope ya'll like it too!

 

 

If you would like to purchase a copy, visit our website and get yours today for $9.95!

If you're a shop and would like to carry our book please contact Annies or United Notions. And if you would like to host a SunFlower Quilts Trunk Show with our book projects please send me an email jamie@sunflower-quilts.com for more info!

 

I would like to give a huge THANK YOU to Sharon at Annie's publishing for giving us the chance to write our first book and all of your hard work helping us make this happen!

 

Also, a huge THANK YOU to Moda, Dear Stella and Pellon for providing us with the gorgeous fabrics and materials to make these projects come to life! Our book is so colorful thanks to ya'll!

 

And to my Mama, my partner in crime! Thank you for teaching me to sew and going on this journey with me! I wouldn't be doing what I love without you and I love you more than you know!
