| Earlier this week I was the lucky winner of a door prize at our guild meeting. |
 |
| It was suggested that I use some of this Alexander Henry fabric to make the quilt that goes inside the cup.... |
....but I realized that I only had a piece of this fabric--not quite the same thing!
 |
| I ended up making my little quilt from this Timeless Treasures novelty fabric--when I'm bored, I will always have something to read--lol! |
 |
| It holds a lot more liquid than my Tervis cup--I'll be well hydrated now. |
 |
| My Linen Closet baskets are finished: I had lots of stitching time at the guild meeting Monday, a sew-in on Tuesday, and Applique Group on Friday. |
 |
| I'm using my pre-cut scraps for the Temecula Circa 2016 sew along. I don't always have the ideal fabrics in the scrap boxes, but so far I'm happy with what I've been able to put together. |
 |
| Today I'll be doing some Slow Sunday Stitching on the latest Buttermilk Basin Let It Snow block. Since I've been doing my letters in blue, I was able to make my cardinal a male. I'm really loving this project! Linking with Slow Sunday Stitching HERE  |
Love your wooly projects and that cup quilt will make you smile every time you use it!
ReplyDeleteI like your choice of background fabric for the wool baskets.
ReplyDeleteFun stuff all around. Wished I wasn't using red letters for the Let It Snow. Your cardinal is great.
ReplyDeleteHA! Your cup fabric choices are hilarious!
ReplyDeleteEnjoy your stitching today... I love that cardinal block!
Cute fabric and I love how your cup turned out. I really like that Cardinal block. I'm already at my limit for BOMs right now or I would be tempted to do that one too!
ReplyDeleteLove it! It's so fun and happy!
ReplyDeleteYour cup turned out GREAT. Love your wooly appliques. I missed getting the patter for the Buttermilk Basin block for the "E". GRRRR!!
ReplyDeleteLove the black and white quilting text fabric, I havent seen that before, hilarious! Great little blocks, i am tempted to join, just about ready to give in to temptation!
ReplyDeleteWhat a fun cup! You picked the perfect fabric. You've been busy making beautiful blocks!!
ReplyDeleteI especially love the basket blocks! May we see them all together?
ReplyDeleteYour scraps look good in the Temecula blocks to me. But I know what you mean--you can always get the variety you want or what you envision when you work strictly from what is in the scrap boxes.
Your BB block is beautiful--so striking in those colors, with the male Cardinal.
Great cups! I'm also using my precut scraps for the Circa 2016; have a shoebox full so why not? I wish someone would do a precut scrap exchange to get some new blood in our scraps
ReplyDeleteNice cup, The woolly baskets are great, haven't started mine yet. I'm not giving up though.
ReplyDeleteLove your wool blocks! I'm also doing the Circa 2016 blocks. Yours look great!
ReplyDeleteLove you basket background fabric, I'm always looking at fabrics with words. Have you had it long? Who is the designer?
ReplyDeleteI'm caught up with the Buttermilk basin blocks but did a female Blue Jay as Cardinals are not common in B. C. Love your bold male.
Wonderful projects Karen! I wish you a happy spring!
ReplyDeleteGreat fun with the coffee cup and I like the way the woollen baskets are looking. In fact, all your blocks are looking great.
