Have a heart

Red Heat Hot Pot Mat

Perfected my heart hot pot holder mat!

Its approx 9" x 9" with approx 1" finished strips from my scraps

I quilt like the shape and the fact it is a wonky hanging heart

Red loop

And the Same in Green

Scrappy Green strips

And Lime Green polka dot bias binding

Time for Tea!

The Quilted Teapot

I've been playing with scraps!

And different shapes for mug rugs and pan or pot mats.

Thing the handle could be a little smaller and the body a little larger

The body is approx 7" wide 8" tall and width in total about 11"

I sketched it out and cut out the body and spout.

The handle is bias binding sewn longways and stuffed,

the best way to use fabric on the curve is on the bias

And finished with gingham ribbon and a fabric covered button.

And so time for tea, before bed. Kxx

Mug Rug Monday

I saw what I thought was a wonderful idea, which came from fresh lemon quilts a linked in mini quilt Monday's, where everybody shares tiny quilts. But by the time I got around to joining in, it had finished sometime last year!

So to keep me creative and hopefully everybody sharing we can see what little coasters, mug rugs and super cute quilted hot pot mats people are making and selling.

I am trying to produce an HML code thingy for the side bar, but you will have to bare with me as it is my first time! If somebody knows how.....

All I ask is that you when you link-in go visit at least one other blog in the link.

Here are my batch for the week.
