I had to just have a little no stress fun yesterday on International Quilting Day (a/k/a National quilting day). I still had some logs left after making the last log cabin quilt so I made 4 blocks. Maybe I'll make 4 mug rugs out of them.
There was a pile of batik 4.5" long logs left too so I made 2 mug rug tops. They aren't what I would call pretty, just using what was left in the pile. I will probably use these myself, one on the main level and one in the basement.
My main task yesterday was finding backings and piecing a couple of them. This is the one I will use on the Streak of Lightning quilt.
Looks like you had a very productive National Quilting day!! Love the logs!
ReplyDeleteLooks like you had fun. I need to make some rug mugs also. I think I will make them for candle rugs though. Chris
ReplyDeleteYou did great capturing that bunny on your camera - love it! Look how he blends in with his background. Glad to you enjoyed "International Quilting Day." I had a fun day quilting with QBee's yesterday.

You made good use of your International Quilting Day tying up some loose ends.

Love your no-stress sewing, the mug rugs are beautiful. I'm still combing through my scraps, no thinking required for that task.
ReplyDeleteI get so far behind on reading blogs, but I can see you have been a busy bee, like usual! Love the paper piecing you have been doing. I have the Rattlesnake too...got it out a couple of years ago, made 2 blocks and never did get back to it. Maybe I can put it on the summer to-do list!
ReplyDeleteA very productive day I would say.
ReplyDeleteWanda, Do you ever sleep??? Really, you are amazing!!! Love the mug rugs!!

ReplyDeleteYour log cabin block is just too cute! Thanks for sharing.
ReplyDeleteLove your blocks made with skinny strips. Perfect backing choices. You have been busy, girl.
ReplyDeleteIt is fun to use up scraps. Mug rugs are a nice way to do so. Cute bunny!
ReplyDeleteI am catching up on some of the blog reading and naturally yours is one of my favorites. I don't think the weather is cooperating with springtime. I have to go out for a scan today and it is supposed to be miserable outside. I was happy to hear that the treatment on your eye is work. What great news.
