So, for sweet nephew #1 who is just getting into little league, I used an All Star Charm Pack by Zoe Pearn for Riley Blake Designs. So cute!!! I lined it with some extra backing I had from The Boat House line and the numbers are a perfect match ;)
And for sweet nephew #2 who loves all things sports especially baseball and football, I used a Charm Pack of Varsity by Sweetwater for Moda. I lined it with a great print from the Best Day Ever line by April Rosenthal that looks just like little baseballs and made the handles from Chic Neutrals line by Amy Ellis. They all go so perfectly together.
And for my sweet niece #1 who just loves a rainbow of colors, I choose a Tula Pink's True Colors for Free Spirit Fabrics Charm Pack. For the lining I used a great Rainbow print from Dear Stella that was the perfect compliment. I just love all of those happy colors ;)
And finally, for my very special Sister-In-Law, who I am slowly sucking into the fabulous world of quilting, I decided on the ever so cute Charm Pack of Paper Bandana by Alexia Marcelle Abegg for Cotton + Steel Fabrics and then complimented it with the gorgeous Arrow Print also by Cotton + Steel. I love how all of their prints coordinate ;)
And those were the 4 new Charming Totes from this Christmas ;) I just love making these bags!!! I did a take on a tutorial here where you can make the tote reversible, and here is the original tutorial I used from Crazy Mom Quilts ;) I just do the corners of the bag differently, as shown in the first tutorial ;)
And then I had one last special little tote to whip up. This one was a little more patchwork and I am so excited with how it turned out ;) My sweet nephew just loves Minecraft so I made him a patchwork tote of what I now know is a creeper. I loved playing with all of the different shades of green.
And on the reverse side is the Blue Sword. There is just nothing quite as fun as simple patchwork. So, so, so much fun!!!
