Scrap Purge Goodies

For a while now I've been meaning to sew up some bowl coasters so it would be easier 
for all of us to hold onto a steaming bowl of soup or stew.
Image
These are the bowl coasters I made for the boys.
They were pretty quick to finish and I should have done this eons ago!
Image
I used a piece of insulbrite in between the fabric
and they got the thumbs up award. 
Image
My granddaughter will be able to tuck her dolly in with this little scrappy quilt.
I'll whip up a pillow to go with it.

Image
I love the roses on the back and the binding is scrappy too!

Transition

Isn't this a great way to view the inevitable?

Image

I've been stitching away but my camera decided it's time to hang out the 
"Gone Fishing" sign!
Hope to be clicking pics soon.

HAPPY STITCHING :)

Scraps! The Sequel

The PURGE continues in my little corner of the world!

Image

Above is my third quilt top from my abundant supply of scraps!

Image

The second flimsy.

Image

The first quilt top. I had no idea I had so many scraps!

Image

Finally,
I had an absolutely hideous hanging lamp 
(I should have taken a before shot).
I'm talking Ugly, green pleated plastic!!
Then an epiphany hit me and abracadabra, hocus - pocus!
I love orange and it brightens up my boys reading area.
Win/Win!! YEP!

The Very Hairy Berry Picker

 This sly fox was nipping raspberries from the extremely overgrown patch in our neighbour's yard this morning.

I'm such a cut up!

Image

It may have been hotter than a firecracker outside but that didn't stop me from smoking through my scrap stash and doing a little cutting!
Ok. A lot of cutting! 3", 4" & 7" squares for scrappy quilts.
