Show & Tell With Stef & Allie

Stef  and Allie are two sweet and very creative women I met in blog land, and I'm excited that they are willing to let me share some of their projects here on my blog for all of us to enjoy.

Stef is a budding quilt designer bursting with creativity.  She made a miniature quilt using the "Petit Fours" that we give out.  She calls this her "Summertime Mini Quilt":

 

How cute is that?

 

So bright and cheery for summer.  I admire Stef's creativity, her ability to mix and match fabric lines with such great results, and her ability to finish - way to sew, Stef!

You can visit Stef at her blog The Quilt Buddy.

And, Allie has designed 3 adorable embroidery blocks for summertime projects.  She calls them "Portholes"

Isn't that cute?

 

I love all of those tiny flowers in the flower boxes.  All three of the "Portholes" blocks Allie designed will make you long for a trip to the beach.  I admire Allie's creativity, and the ability to picture something in her head -- and bring it to life in drawings and stitchery-way to sew, Allie!

You can find pictures of the three blocks and download the free patterns of "Portholes" at Allie's blog Allie-Oops Sweet Happy Life.

So ladies, if you're looking for some inspiration, grab a glass of lemonade and go for a visit at Stef's blog and Allie's blog.

Thanks so much to you guys for sharing with us!

And, ladies, if you have a project you'd like to share for Show & Tell, send me an e-mail.

TTFN,

Kelly

P.S.  Help Needed--I've had a few ladies who use Blogspot that would like to know how to post the "Charming Girls' Quilt Club" image and link in the column of their blogs.  For those of you that know how to do this, would you be willing to help by posting a comment here explaining how you got the image and link in your column on Blogspot?  Thanks girls!

Love the show and tell...Gorgeous Alie and Stef!
The way I post the "Charming Girls Club" logo is I have it copied in "My Pictures" Right click on the image and "save as" directly to your pictures. Then when you add a posting you Browse from your own pictures. As for the link I copy and paste it on my blog through the layout--I click on "Add a gadget". There I am able to go to the " Add a link" where I paste your link.From "Add a gadget" I can also add the photo of the logo from my pictures to the column on the side of my blog.
This works for my template but others maybe different. I hope this will help in some way.

I thoroughly enjoyed the show and tell from Stef and Allie, thanks girls! Soon I'll check
out your blogs as well :^)

I added the "Charming Girls Logo" to my blog the same way as Joan did. I learned some of this blogging stuff by trial and error...

HI K!

Thanks for highlighting my Summertime Mini! It looks so much better on your blog!

Allie has got some talent aslo! Those embroidery blocks are so cute. Very fun and summery. She also has a cute blog!

I posted the widget the same way. I had trouble at first, but you just have to play with it a little bit. Let me know if anyone else need help.

XOXO! (and HUGS to you)

I love the mini quilt! I might have to add a mini quilt to my 'list'. And that embroidery work is just amazing...makes me wish I was sitting on a beach some where with a fruity drink, smushing my toes through the sand!
