Toucan Tote with Thermoweb

We have Hopscotched on Toucan Watch, ringed letters and numbers in Toucan Toss, played Tic-Tac-Toe and Toucan Cornhole. Now this "Toucan Tote" bag has plenty of room for the rings and bean bags we have collected, along with the reversible activity mat and extra snacks to take along.

If you have been following my Jungle Theme "Toucan" projects you've likely seen this reversible quilt.

Now, using the leftover fabrics from this 2-sided quilt, you should have plenty to make this tote bag.

All fabric requirements are included in the free pattern for you.

Combined with these Thermoweb products you will have a sturdy tote bag that's easy to make.

HeatNBond®Fusible Fleece

HeatNBond EZ Print Lite or HeatNBond ®Lite

HeatNBond Non-Woven Craft Fusible X-Firm 60” wide

I Craft Fabric Fuse Liquid Adhesive is a great way to add the handles to this bag, by keeping them straight and fused to the bag allowing you to stitch without pins. Once you get the handles placed where needed just run a bead of the adhesive down the back side of the handle and let dry for a few minutes.

SprayNBond®Basting Adhesive holds the layers of your bag front and lining together nicely, to aid in quilting each piece.

There are plenty of tips, tricks and photos in the free pattern.

Hop on over to the "Thermoweb" blog HERE and get your pattern today!

Cackling Stitches June BOM

Carol at "Just Let Me Quilt" worked double duty this month, to bring us 2 not so creepy characters to the Cackling Stitches 2022 BOM.

Skully with his eyeball yo-yo.

Wolfman Wally

You can find these on our "Cackling Stitches Group"

Here's how the BOM works. It's a Facebook group free block of the month, that runs from February 1 to August 30th. On the first day of the each month, we will release block patterns that will be free until the next months block(s) is released. Once new blocks are released, the previous month's block(s) will no longer be free. They will be available in our Etsy stores at a cost of $2.

On September 1st the entire pattern will be combined and sold in our Etsy stores for $10.

We hope you appreciate the time we put into creating this BOM quilt and understand that we are keeping the costs to a minimum. If you are quick to get the patterns during the month they are released, they are free and there would be no cost to you. As always we ask that you do not share the pattern. You can direct your friends to the "Cackling Stitches Group" on Facebook

Celebrate with a Bang Garden Flag

Show off your patriotic side with this fun garden flag.

Another, in my year of flags with Thermoweb.

With a few supplies, you will be on your way.

The free pattern is HeatNBond EZ Print Lite

ready. That means no more tracing. Just pop a sheet in your printer and hit print.

Cutting lettering has never been so easy, with Crafter's Edge dies and the Crossover II die cutting machine. I absolutely love this system. It allows you to see what your cutting and takes up considerably less space the other dies.

I have included similar lettering in the pattern if you don't have these dies.

Once your appliques are cut, you just press, stitch and your ready to waterproof it

with HeatNBond Liquid Vinyl. It paints on easily and cleans up with just water.

You can download the free pattern on the "Thermoweb" blog HERE today!

Hope your 4th of July is a blast!

:-)

Pinwheel Play Garden Flag

It's May and our garden are just getting up and going, so why now help them along a bit, with this colorful garden flag?

This is one of my latest flag in the year of flags with Thermoweb.

With just a few supplies and these Thermoweb products, your on your way.

The pattern is printer friendly...which means no more tracing!

Just drop a sheet in your printer and your ready to fuse them to the back of your fabrics.

Cut out the applique shapes and arrange on the front, fuse in place and stitch using your favorite method.

HeatNBond Liquid Vinyl

keeps your fabric projects protected outdoors from the elements. Best yet, you can choose the amount of protection needed, by adding additional layers of product.

It paints on easily, using a foam brush or my favorite, a fine bristled brush.

Cleanup is a snap, using just water.

You can download the free pattern over on the Thermoweb blog

Enjoy!

Foodie Blog Hop meets Tacosaurus

I'm late, I'm late...for this very important date!

Sorry, I'm still catching up from a quilt retreat last week, and I scheduled this wrong. Yikes!

What's on your plate for this "Foodie" blog hop?

When I found this fabric, I couldn't stop laughing, and I knew that I had to make

something for this hop, with it.

With a google search I was able to find a tipsy looking dinosaur HERE and my imagination was off and running.

This guy needed a little drinky-poo in his hands. The bowl of chips and guacamole and the drink are part of patterns from "Angies Bits and Pieces". I love mixing and matching all the patterns I have collected. The portrait of tacosaurus, finishes off the center of this silly table topper.
