Book by Anni Downs. This is a book to celebrate the every-day happenings in our lives… The housewrok, the baking, the going to work, the gardening, even the getting ready in the morning! Inside the covers are 25 insightful and whimsical stitcheries which feature part of our every-day lives where everything is done but often we have nothing to show for it. Also included are eleven different projects to create with an every-day theme, such as Ipad cover, magnetic notice board, purse, sewing accessories, quilt and much more!

This pattern started off as a wall hanging until a very good friend of mine stated she wanted a very special Christmas Bag she could cart presents in at Christmas....something for her instead of her children, so ta da! I made my design into a large carpet bag style bag. It is very roomy at 18" wide, 18" tall. and 6" deep. The sides have been gathered slightly, and are finished with side bands. There is a tile with wording ‘Together at Christmas’, along with extra wording ‘Hello old friend’, and ‘Joy’. So it is up to you to decide if a bag is for you, or if you would like this image on a pillow, or on a wall. This project combines needleturn applique, stitchery, and simple machine piecing.

"Home is a place I have always loved the most...a place where you can recharge, a place where you can just be, a place that truly represents who we are, and a place where we can surround ourselves with family and friends whenever the mood strikes."
Anni Downs created this quilt with these thoughts in mind. There are 12 parts to this quilt, all with needle-turn applique, machine piecing and some stitchery. Finished Size - 70" x 70" (176cm x 176cm)
