Food Glorious Food Projects of 2007

There were so many sweet comments about the 

yummy food fabrics I purchased and showed 

pictures of  here, that I decided to share some 

projects I made with fabrics I collected back in 2007.  

My brother in law is without doubt a junk food junky.

Shhhh....  don't tell him I said that, 

but chances are he already knows it.

He would rather snack on a bag of potato chips, cookies,

peanuts, beef jerky or a candy bar than eat a good meal. 

Do you know anyone like this? 

Don't get me wrong, he's a great guy and 

 I love my chocolate, just not for breakfast, 

lunch and dinner.  Well maybe after for dessert.  

I knew I wanted to make him a quilt and had

selected another pattern which included batiks.   

Then in 2006 when I was shopping in a quilt store 

and came across these novelty food fabrics, 

I had an epiphany or Ah ha moment.  

I was determined to collect enough novelty food 

fabrics for a quilt and they've become some of 

my favorites.  

So now you know the rest of the story.

 I made this lap quilt titled "Junk Food Junkie" 

for his Birthday, February 2007.

Sorry the photo isn't the best.

My friend Ami quilted this one for me and did an outstanding job.  

I made this tote bag for Mr. Create's aunt who is a 

high school teacher for a Christmas gift in 2007.  

I personalized it with her name embroidered 

on the inside pocket.  

I thought her students would enjoy the junk food.  

It was a big hit and she told me she loved it.
