Quarentine, Stay Home~ Contained!

I had the pleasure of working on a pattern test for Bea

@beaquilter

And when it came to naming her quilt~ 'Contained' seemed like the perfect name!

I started with some patriotic scraps that were bugging me, and then just picked things from stash and came up with my version of Contained~

Check out Bea's blog for the pattern link and other versions of the quilt.

My DH has claimed this as soon as I get it quilted. :-)

How are you doing with StayingHome/Staying Safe?

Is your town closed up?

Required to wear masks every where?

We are, and I made quite a few masks for family and decided, I did not enjoy mask making!

The reason behind needing one, worrying about the safety of

the essential workers in my family... it starts to drag me down.

I am happy to be done with that task!

I hope you & yours are all well~

Be Safe!

Until next time~

Stitch something fun!

A Few Things~

Now that all the birthday gifts and Easter gifts have been received, 

I can show you a bit of what I was up to. I get so focused on wrapping that sometimes I totally forget to take pix, and I did that ..again. sigh.  Sorry.

But~

First~ placemat pouches.

I love these bags!  You use a Pioneer Woman placemat and I loosely followed a You Tube tutorial by Lorrie Nunemaker. She shows 8 or 9 different things you can make with these. :-) So fun!

Of course, I did have to experiment embroidering on some too. 

And how fun are these kitchen hand towels?!

This was a 'Designs by Juju' machine embroidery file I purchased. 

I love red trucks, so I also made myself one with the chocolate bunny in the back. ;-) I didn't get a photo of mine~ already in use. LOL  The aqua truck I tried to make the bunnies in the back look like Peeps. :-)

I have been working on a King size quilt the last couple weeks, hopefully this is the week I can get it all together!

What is keeping you busy?

Until next time~

Happy Stitchin'!!
