Wristlet Mania
I just finished a bunch of wristlets and wanted to show them off.
Made with, from left to right: 1) Jackie Shapiro's Botanical Pop with red satin, 2) Alexander Henry Noguchi and Necco with black satin, 3) Alexander Henry butterfly rint and Denyse Schmidt Katie Jump Rope basketweave print,
4) Jennifer Paganelli's Bell Bottoms & Girlfriends with chocolate satin, 5) Amy Butler's Nigella and Lotus with teal satin, 6) Michael Miller Ginger Blossom with Kaufman floral with kiwi satin,
7) Kaufman Origami Flower with Bell Bottoms check with turquoise satin, 8) Amy Butler's Midwest Modern with aqua satin, and 9) Amy Butler's Midwest Modern with cornflower satin.
(My lawn somehow changed color for this photo!)
Here's a shot of the quilted satin backs. . .
. . .and here they are all lined up. I love making wristlets!












Those are very cute--I love the satin backs all lined up in a rainbow. I can't even pick a favorite, but I really like the Botanical Pop one and one made with Nigella. Really nice!

How gorgeous - what a nice array of prints and colours. The lustre of the satin looks lovely.

What a lovely idea to include the quilted satin backs! Do you have an online source for colorful satins, or did you buy locally? I've always admired the wristlet you blogged last year at http://www.ohfransson.com/oh_fransson/2007/08/flickr-photo--6.html
Any chance of an upcoming wristlet pattern for sale?

Lovely.
I especially love the Amy Butler ones. I want to make curtains from the aqua and green flower print fabric (bottom one in your last pic). Wonderful color and fabric choices. Where do you buy all your fabrics?

I love your fabric combinations! Your sewing skills are awesome. : )

They are all very cute and the fabric choises you made are fab! Looks like my ipod would go into one of them. I like your sewing - great stuff in your blog!
