Scrappy Pumpkin Table Runners and Pillow Covers

Posted on September 23, 2023 | 24 comments

I am enjoying working on seasonal projects and using up stash at the same time!

I found an easy pumpkin tutorial shared by Amy Smart and it has been fun to make!

I am making two table runners to fit two different cabinets in my home.

I am also making two different pillow covers for the couch.

I added enough black squares (great to use them up) to make them the size that I need for the pillow forms that I have.

On to the not so fun part; making batting the sizes that I need from the scraps that I have.

Frankenbatt…appropriate for the season!

Have fun and carry on!

Bowl Cozies, a Potato Bag, and a Rail Fence

Posted on September 2, 2023 | 22 comments

I have made bowl cozies before, but they were all given away as gifts.

It is nearly chili and soup weather!

Bowl Cozy

When the Hubster figured out that I was making bowl cozies, he got excited.

We are going to be using these!

I have also made potato bags and given them away.

I needed another for a quick gift and it sure doesn’t take long to make these!

Potato Bag

One of the things that I wanted to do this year was use up some of my hand dyes.

I have chosen Bonnie Hunter’s Checkerboard Rails pattern to help me out.

Rail Fence

This is very easy sewing and I think I have enough rail fence blocks made for a good-sized quilt.

I do need to make more four patches and then I will lay this out and see if I have enough.

Have fun and carry on!

Stash Busters 2022 Challenge Completed

Posted on July 11, 2023 | 26 comments

I posted about the Stash Buster Challenge on February 03, 2022.

It has marinated long enough.

Stash Buster 2022 Challenge Jericho Walls Variation

I decided to quilt an edge to edge design as opposed to custom quilting. I don’t think that it needs to be too fancy since it is destined to be used as a table topper.

The topper is about 48″ square.

It feels great to have it off of the hangar and finished!

I have someone in mind who will be receiving this as a gift. She is a very generous lady and I really appreciate her!
