This is my latest pattern Rise, out now in the new issue of <a href="https://transactions.sendowl.com/stores/7271/40593">Make Modern</a>.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
The bottom photo shows my inspiration which is a column in the Casino du Lac Leamy in the Ottawa-Hull area. Sadly the quilt is upside down in the photo because I felt very conspicuous taking the photo and just hurried LOL! I am glad I finally did get that photo though as it shows me that I really did manage to attain the 3D effect I had been aiming for.</div>

I don't have much to show because I've been sick the last few days but these are some things I have been working on.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
The pillows are a lot of fun and I have several more ideas of ones I want to try.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
The oven mitt/hot pad combo is fun as well but sewing the binding on the hot pads takes forever and my machine stitching isn't good enough.</div>

The pattern is the Zip Top Tote from Anna Graham's book <a href="https://www.madaboutpatchwork.com/collections/patterns-quilt/products/handmade-style">Handmade Style.</a> One important note if you are going to make this it to use a purse zipper for the wider tape, I struggled quite a bit.</div><div style="text-align: center;"><div><img src="https://lh3.googleusercontent.com/-Rhan0SF8C1M/WJ58OxvMQNI/AAAAAAAAiYA/_iEe84mV9p8/I/photo_912874.jpg" border="0" class="bloggoimg"></div><div><img src="https://lh3.googleusercontent.com/-XGNRgXlUbZ0/WJ58PAKltSI/AAAAAAAAiYE/ap8Fd38PxjQ/I/photo_804327.jpg" border="0" class="bloggoimg"></div>Last night I sat down to figure out some new pouch dimensions.
