Sewing

The front (above) and back (below) of my most recent baby quilts. This one, surprise, surprise, is for a girl. Now stop having babies so I can catch up on my baby quilt making!
	Another kuspuk-type jacket. This one is also zip up and it skirted! The fabric is upholstery weight.The hood has a funny peak I didn't quite catch on film, very umpa-lumpa like.
Grandma's Mother's Day pillow. hand sewn, quilted and beaded (gifted)!
This is my 1st baby quilt sized quilt. It's a little katty-wampus, but I'm pretty proud of in nonethe less (gifted).
This fall I took a parka sewing class taught by the woman who made my wedding parka.. Since I have a parka (see my parka photos), I wanted to make a jacket. Here it is! The women in the class shared everything. At the time I didn't have a sewing machine and the instrictor allowed me to use hers. I didn't have the gold rick-rack or fabric glue, other students gave me these items.
Detail, and more true colors. The flower patterns are supposed to designate what viilage the wearer is from and if s/he is single. I am not quite sure what this one says. The pattern may be from Bethel - somewhere in Interior Alaska. I now have a sewing machine (my husband listens even when I don't think he is!) and want to take a quilt class. The instructor of this class may teach a mukluk class (moose hide and beaded) this winter!
