Wondering where I've been?

So here's just a little taste of what I've been up to in the last 3 months.  High School Drama Club musical, Girl Scout cookies, stripping wallpaper, birthdays, snow, work, and the list goes on and on. I did do a little sewing and embroidery along with some hand quilting in my "spare" time. The sewing / embroidering / quilting Keychains for our amazing cast, stage crew and directors A bag to carry things back and forth from rehearsal Finally getting to slowly hand quilt my Labyrinth quilt. Hopefully it will be done by summer Zelda quilt was completed prior to rehearsals beginning Drama Club (this is all new to me so it was a learning experience!) Going to see some of the other local high school productions for inspiration Getting panels primed and ready for our amazing artist to work her magic A preposterous hat for our step-sisters Set building and painting Pretty proud of this tree Costume alterations and embellishments with Mrs. B And just like that it's over C

Mug Rugs

  Mug rugs!! Quick and fun.   The tea cup pattern is from Fandominstitches.com (Project of Doom week 27). The hearts are appliqued using Heat N Bond light.  They make a perfect quick gift. Finished size: 12" x 5.5" This one was gifted to my Aunt for her birthday. She sent me this photo 💖

Hearts

  This was fun and so relaxing to put together! Just randomly grabbed some larger scraps of fabric and cut 2" squares. The white background is also 2" squares but you could do strips if you wanted to. The red border I cut at 2.5" and the binding is the leftover 2" color blocks.  This would make such a cute baby blanket just by either cutting the squares larger or adding more hearts. I think that will have to be a future project!! Finished size is approximately 24" x 24" When testing out different layouts. I initially had 2 different white background fabrics. One is plain white and the other has a tone on tone print. Eventually I decided I wanted all of the hearts to have the print so made 2 more for the final project. The 2 using the plain white fabric I made into the small 12 x 24 hanging. Some of the different layout options I tried. I think this first one would be really cute with a secondary pattern in the center.
