Another Pin: NAILED!!!
I saw this on Pinterest: http://seaside-stitches.blogspot.nl/2013/03/fabric-box-tutorial.html
So, using some of the scrappy stuff from my thrift store find from Friday, I whipped up a couple of boxes and matching mug rugs. They need some more hand stitches yet.
Another Pin: NAILED!!!
And I saw this on Pinterest as well: http://www.modabakeshop.com/2013/08/quilted-patchwork-pouch.html
The tutorial called for a Moda mini-charm pack, but I found a stack of HSTs at 2.5" that were going to waste, so I used them. I still have a few left over HSTs, so I'm going to make a smaller matching bag.
I believe I have 71 Split Nine Patches done now. The pattern calls for 80 blocks, but I think I could just keep going!
Aaaaaand, just when I had my stash all whipped into shape, I couldn't resist purchasing a bag full of fabric samples when I was home on Thursday.

ReplyDeleteOh - I had seen those boxes on a blog last fall. Thanks for the link to instructions as they might become end of year teacher gifts! Great projects - love the lemoyne star mug rugs.
ReplyDeleteDon't you just love it when you can actually make something from Pinterest. Great use of your leftovers.
ReplyDeletePlaid mug rugs are sharp. Have a masculine look which I think is good.
