January was a busy month of pattern tests and sewing fun, along with the normal day-to-day stuff. ;-)
We had a family get-together and I got to play with my DGD one weekend.
All the things that make life joyful!
I tested the Adamas Quilt by Emily of Dame and Dane Quilting.~
I found this cool ombre fabric at Hobby Lobby and turtle fabric and just knew I had to use the two for this pattern. I just love how it turned out! The beauty of this pattern is that the blocks are easy rectangles and squares to sew together~ it is how you turn them that makes the design. :-)
I also did a 'small' test for Lesley of BerryBirdy.
The Snow Star Pillow pattern comes in three sizes~ a pillow, a wall hanging and a cute little mug rug. Can you guess which one I did? :-)
The teeny mug rug!!
It measures 8½" square and was really fun for me to make! I love messing around with teeny pieces!
In hindsight, I should have chosen a solid white for my background to make the snow flake pop a little more. No mug will ever find its way to this mini! It has a place of honor on my sewing room wall. ;-)
I would love to make a set of pillows next. :-)
What fun things have been keeping you busy? Do you like to sew mini's?
I do have more to show soon!
Until next time~
Happy Stitchin'!!
