New Laptop Cover for my Honey

My husband got a new laptop.  It's big.  So big that there is no commercial bag or carrying case that is big enough to accommodate it.  So I made him a case the same way that I covered my ipad.

I use super heavy 1/8" thick iron-on interfacing with out-y seams on two sides.

Can you tell he picked the fabric out of my stash?  I laughed when he pointed out what he wanted.  I am pretty sure these are two he picked out as cool at a quilt fabric store somewhere.  He's consistent though.

 On the open end I added the flap and velcro so it wouldn't slide out.

My new sit-up-straight Chair

My darling husband built me a new chair - yes, chair.  It is specially designed for me.  He measured me seated and made the back the correct angle I need.

I love it. Isn't he brilliant?

Baby Afghan in Green

I just finished this baby blanket.  I knitted it with 6mm needles and baby yarn.  It is very soft.  I used a simple K1,P1, moss stitch so it was easy to work on in the truck driving across the prairies.  My sister-in-law, suggested I just single crochet around the edge so I got some white yarn that is made of cuddle fleece and did a couple of rows around.  Soooo soft.

I hope my niece,  likes it and that her baby arrives safe and sound.

Wheelchair Bag

This was a secret project so I didn't post about it sooner.  But the recipient is now in possession so here goes.

 First I chose some rainbow coloured fabric.  She loves rainbows...

Then I stitched up the bag in a simple messenger style.

As you can see the straps are loops only.  They fit over the chair pushers and keep her stuff handy.  Oh, yes and a small peek inside...

Oops apparently I made the straps a bit short.  Hopefully we will be in the same city soon and I can fix the issure...

Foxglove at Night Wall hanging

I just love these blocks.  The colours are sooo vibrant.

And finally, put together and all those paper bits removed from the back.  Yeah!

Alphabet Progress

I have been delving into old projects and trying to finish some that appeal to me.  This one I began with the letter blocks in June 2014.
Now look...
