Sunflower Stitching

Having fun at the sewing machine.

I love making something

that is freestyle 

so I started by drawing a picture.

Then I started cutting and sewing.

It's so freeing when there are no rules

and you can just create as you go. 

After mounting this quilt

and placing it on the mantle

I decided to make some coasters

to scatter around the living room.

  

Again no rules 😁

A little bit Piggly, 

A little bit Wiggly

&

And a lot of fun.

 

Happy Sewing

&

Have A Wonderful Weekend

Dear Friends.

Spring Has Sprung!

 

I'm so busy this time

of the year.

Gardening, setting up 

irrigation lines 

and trying to get 

a little sewing done.

I have been looking for 

English cucumber seeds forever. 

😊 This year I found some 😊

I'm a happy girl!

Do you save seeds 

and 

trade with friends?  

It's a great way to save money.

 

Here are a few photos 

of some little cloth baskets 

I made this week. 

I saw the idea on Pinterest

and had to try it. 

I hope you're all 

having a wonderful week.

The weather is lovely here 

and I've been outside 

working and coming in 

exhausted and dirty 

each evening. 

I'm not complaining! 

I've been waiting 

for spring all winter🥰

God bless you all 

and 

keep smiling. 

You're blogging sister,

More Partially Done Projects

It's okay to call me crazy, 

I have three projects 

that I'm working on 

and ready to start a 4th.

 

I just can't seem to figure out 

what I want to do 

with any of them

 to make a finished piece. 

Hopefully taking time to think 

about it will bring me 

to a conclusion.

 

I do hope you're all 

having a wonderful day 

and that you're not 

as scatterbrained as I am. 

Grace be with you all.

Diamonds From Amazon

 

I purchased diamonds 

from Amazon 

for my Valentine's present 

to myself :)

No, there are not earrings  . . .

They are cabinet knobs LOL. 

 

 

 

 

Here are my dressers finished

A little paint

(that I already had)

and the new knobs. 

If you are interested in these pull

handles, go to Amazon and type in

Crystal Cabinet Knobs

30mm Diamond Pulls 

10 Pack $8.87 

they are rated 4 1/2 stars by 4,615,349 people

 

 

Another thing that I did in the bedroom

was add these dollies to the windows.

 

 

 All that I did was iron them

with spray starch and then I took

a children's glue stick and glued them

to the window.  

The glue is washable, so removing

should be a snap. 

 

I forgot to add these two photos

to my last post.

I have a footstool in front of the

sofa, so I use this tray for a place to

set a "cup-a" when I have company. 

 

 

I thought that putting this quilt

on the sofa would be in keeping with 

my February theme. 

 

I hope that you enjoyed

the little tour and that it 

will inspire you . . .

Spring is almost here and we'll be 

sending so much time outside

that we won't have the time to tweek the house

like we do now . . . Have Fun!

God Bless You All

Quilt Group Christmas Gifts

Last Thursday was the 

December meeting of our

Quilting Group.

I had made these 

Mug Rugs & Pincushions 

as gifts . . .

but couldn't post before giving :) 

 

 

 Here are the pincushions . . .

I had so much fun making these.

 

The following photos are them

paired with their Mug Rug :) 

 

 

Hope you enjoyed . . .

Do you have a favorite?

Mug Rugs Galore

 

Hello Sweet Friends . . .

Today's post is mostly photos.

 

 

My followers know that 

I live on a pretty tight budget,

but I like to live well.

Therefore; for my Christmas gifts

this year I have started

by going through my scrap pile.

 

Who can't use a little "Mug Rug?"

 

 

Larger than a coaster,

Smaller than a place mat . . . 

just the right size for a 

cup and a treat :)

I've made a pile of them . . .

and I'm still sewing.

Have fun looking them over,

I hope you get inspired.

I hope you enjoyed the 

little "Mug Rug" tour . . .

 

 

Wishing you & yours . . .

A warm & cozy Christmas :)
