Donation Baby Quilts

 Going through my sewing room and got a bunch of baby quilts tagged with a label and ready to be donated.  Gave 4 to my daughter to find a home for, but still have some left.  Not sure yet where the rest of these will go.  

(Cat not included - lol)

Book Marks

 

To make:

Cut 3 - 4 x 4" squares (one for the back, one for the front, and one that will be folded over.

Cut 2 - 4 x 4" square iron on interfacing.  Cut one in half diagonally, you will only need one half.

Iron interfacing onto one 4x4 square and the other diagonal piece on the fabric that will be folded in half.  Fold the diagonal square and iron flat.

Stack pieces as follows:  front square right side up, triangle right side up, back square wrong side up.  Sew together leaving a gap to turn.  Clip corners and turn right side out and press.  Top stitch around edge, sewing gap closed.  

If fussy cutting the triangle piece, make sure you have the correct side showing.  (I made that mistake.)

Kitchen Towel Hanger

 

My step daughter sent me a picture of on of these and asked if I could make it.  So I did :)  It is crocheted around a hair band.  Then just straight stitches until a good length.  Put a button on it and left a gap for the button.  Here is a picture of them on her stove.  She no longer has to pick up the towels off of the floor.

Snack Mats

 

Made a couple of snack mats (aka mug rugs) for the kids this Christmas.  They end up about 7 x 9 inches.  Great for a cup and a little snack.  The kids really like using them.  

Bowl Cozies

 

Made a bunch of bowl cozies for Christmas gifts.  Used my fruit fabric and made the fold shorter so it would hold bigger bowls.  Great for not burning your fingers when taking hot bowls out of the microwave.  Included instructions with them.

BOWL COZY

This bowl cozy is handmade with 100% cotton and is microwave safe. Simply place your bowl of food in the cozy and reheat as usual. Remove bowl with the cozy to avoid burning your fingers. Also great for cold food. Reversible. Washable.
