no, not just a line from LA Woman by the Doors. But what is going on with me!! I've been making stuff, woo hoo :) Lookie see - my first EVER mug rug! Thought I really should try them out before I make ones to send to someone. Not bad me thinks - as long as you don't look too closely (then it looks REALLY bad LOL)
So I need to get my thinking cap on for designs for my swap partner rugs, got a couple of ideas but not quite sure yet. Might need to buy some material depending on what I decide on, oh what a task that will be!
But I'm already planning my next quilt. It's not a new plan, more like a long forgotten plan that I've finally plucked up the courage to continue with. If you look closely at the picture below you will see that the magazine is actually dated 'August 2006' - yes that is not a mistake, 2006.
I bought the magazine way back then, flicked through - as you do - and decided I LOVED this pattern, a log cabin with an appliqued heart in the middle.
So off I went to my sister's shop (which has since closed due to a variety of reasons) bought the yummy material below. Started to cut it up into strips and then ............... nothing. Other things cropped up, I packed the material away to keep it nice and clean and I promptly forgot about it, until recently.
So I've decided that it will not live in a box under my bed no longer. It deserves to be made into an actual quilt. Now all I need to do is actually sit myself in front of my sewing machine and put thread and needle into the material.
