This hop was one that I did not rush with at all. I was ready way ahead of time.
Thank you soo much Madame Samm and Carol for coming up with this great theme and for all your hard work.
I made 3 different projects.
My first was well needed. I always keep a calander on my desk at my computer. I am one that loves being organized and also writing everything down. My calendar not only keeps Birthdays, Anniversaries, appointments, but things I want to accomplish that day. Also notes as to what I did accomplished that day. I needed to get a new holder, but we are 17 miles from our nearest store and I only go twice a month. Unfortunately, I keep forgetting. So I got this idea:
I made a pocket using black fabric, and placed a thin piece of cardboard inside. Not knowing, but it should have been a little heavier piece.
It is not perfect...but it sure works good for what I want it to do.
My second is a wall hanging:
(I always say to myself. Get your work done, then quilt. That way I can quilt as long as I want and not worry about getting other things done. Before, I had to wait till after 5:00, when I got home.)
My third and last is a mug rug.
I like to enjoy a good cup of coffee when drawing, or designing my next idea. (Coffee isn't bad but when I have a cold drink, it sweats.)
(I usually grab a few cookies too.
Chocolate of course)
I purchased this a week ago when I went to Jackson with my husband. I thought it was too cute to pass up. Plus I can use it as a pattern. :)
Now it is time to put my mug rug to use. I am going to pour myself a cup of coffee and see what others had made.
Come join me. Here is today's list:
