My first finish for March was this little wristlet pouch. It was fun to make. I am making several of these with variations.
I also made this little pillow. I simply made the little pillow cover with no zipper or opening to stuff left over bits of batting into. It turned our really cute.

Our first National Quilting Day celebration called STITCH IN THE MALL took place on March 21st. We had so much fun with quilters coming from all around the region to sew, chat, and sign up for great prizes including a donation for an opportunity to win a beautiful lap quilt to benefit THE NEXT DOOR, a non-profit organization whose mission to help women in crisis.

I tried adding tabs to my zipper pull for this one. I think it should have been quilted.
