potholder


I needed something else to add to a birthday gift I was going to give to a friend yesterday. I dug around in my orphaned blocks and found this cupcake block. I sewed a border around it and made it into a potholder.
Sometimes I start a quilt and get tired of making blocks, or I want to try out a certain pattern, but don't wan't to continue making an entire project out of it. I just chuck these things into my block box and eventually they get turned into something else, like a table runner, potholder or incorporated into a quilt.
Nothing goes to waste.

Thermos Bag By Linda H.

Linda has been making Thermos bags for her friends. She measures each Thermos and makes the bag to fit. What a great idea!
