Quilted Dragonfly Wallet and : check out my friends blog

This is the front of a little wallet I just finished up yesterday. It was made with leftover silk fabrics from another project that was finished years ago.

All the pieced ready to stitch.
I used my Aurifil thread for the quilting and edge stitching.
Lots of satin stitching on the edges!!!
And finally done!
Here is the back
The back again showing how the cards fit in.
I've got some changes to do with it so will be working on updating the pattern in the near future. I am pleased with the outcome though and love the dragonfly!!! Hope you enjoy the photos!!

Now, if you have time, you can check out my friends blog, Sew Many Roads. I tagged her in the blog hop, Around The World Blog Hop, and she will be tagging her friend, Ruth Blanchett of Arbee Designs. So go take a peek!!!

Take Care, Thanks for the visit and Happy Quilting!!! Keep those needles sharp and changed!!! Martha

      Those colors would be beautiful Cat!!! I am going to work on the pattern some more, and hopefully come up with a few variations in size. And I want to play with the dragonfly patterns and add some sparkle to them!!! Thanks for the visit and have a lovely weekend!!! Martha
