I’m heading off shortly to Hood Canal in Washington State for a quilt retreat organized by the Pine Needle, the quilt shop where I teach. On one evening I’m going to show my students how to make a rotary cutter coat based on my free pattern (tutorial here).
As I was gathering my materials yesterday, I realized I didn’t have a rotary cutter coat of my own. All the ones I have made were given away.
I fixed that in short order. Here is my (new) rotary cutter coat:
The fabric? Two prints from the Paradise line designed by Alisse Courter for Camelot Cottons. I bought a lot of this line when it came out last year. You may recognize it, because it goes with the Junior Billie Bag I made a few months ago. These are the front and back panels of my bag:
Now my Billie Bag is packed for the retreat, including my new rotary cutter coat:
I’m good to go!
Have a wonderful time! Don’t you love being all coordinated when you go traveling? Just a wondering question: have you ever weighed your supply bag when it is all loaded? I heard from another friend that her “Big” Billy bag weighed a ton (sure that was a slight exaggeration).
Are you working on any of your own projects in addition to teaching during this retreat?
Have fun! Love the coat!!
I love the coat! Great idea! Guess I need one now! Have a wonderful time at the retreat!
What a great idea! Thanks for sharing that.
Extremely cha cha!
