Potholders and Lanyards

Sew!!!

That's what I did today.

I made two potholders from scraps.

Then, I went on to make 6 patchwork Lanyards.

I used leftover black and red fabric.

I love these.

My daughter has already grabbed one of these for herself.

The rest are being donated.

I hope you like them.

And then there were four.....

The other day, I showed you one mug rug made
 with left over hst's from this quilt.

Well, I had enough hst's to make three more.

So, that's what I did today.

Now I have a matching set of four.

Here's a view of the back of the four mug rugs.

I just had enough of the green Frolic fabric for the back.

Like I mentioned the other day,

these are being donated to my local guild for their boutique.

I had fun making these.

All the fabric came from my stash.

Love that.

I hope you had a nice day.

2 mug rugs

So, today I didn't feel very well.

I stayed home from work and rested most of the day.

This evening I started feeling better.

I decided to make two more mug rugs.

These two were made out of fabric that was already pieced from an older project.

So, they didn't take very long to make.

Here they are:

This one used leftovers of this quilt.

And this mug rug used leftovers of this quilt.

I'm donating these to mu Guild for the Boutique Shop at our Quilt Show in June.

I've been making some little projects with my scraps.

It's fun to do.

Small completed projects!!

Some days all I want to sew are little things that I can finish in a few hours.

Today was one of those days.

I made a mug rug with selvages and scraps.

This was my first project today.

It was fun to make.

Then, I got a bunch of amazing mail.

The UPS man came first.

I hadn't bought a die in a while.

But I had all these points accumulated on the Accuquilt site.

So, I decided to order the GO! Heather Feather #2 die.

I don't usually buy applique dies.

But, I'm really glad I bought this one.

I worked on a few small projects using this die.

I finished one of them today.

This little art quilt was made using the leftover scraps from one of the fabric I cut with the die.

It's a little butterfly quilt.

Do you like it???

It's 8 X 10 inches.

I really love this die.

I will be showing more small projects with this die soon.

Then, the mail man came, and I received two packages.

These two packages are winnings from the Quilting Gallery's giveaway day.

The big package I received from Contemporary Cloth Fabric Shop.

Look at all my winnings.

It's like winning the lottery for a quilter to win so much fabric.

Thank you so much!!!!

Then, I won some beautiful dupioni silk from Cheryl Lynch Quilts.

She sent me 3 fat quarters and some interfacing to make a project.

Thank you so much Cheryl.

I can't wait to try using these silks.

So, I've had a pretty good day.

I hope you did too!

Hugs
