Just an idea for large pieces that you just don’t want to cut into. that are just too cute or pretty to cut up. Why not take them and make them into tablecloths? I have some fun Halloween and Christmas pieces that I love but will not use, so instead, I just folded the edges over twice, ironed them, did a zig-zag stitch and VOILA! I have tablecloths that I can use or either gift to friends and family. In fact, that’s what I am intending on doing, sending them to my sister and her friends to use. Oh, and did I mention it uses up a couple of yards and very few scraps afterwards.
I just love the witches, just too cute and can be used as a decoration rather than cutting it up!
The striped fabric is just a smaller piece but look how it sets off the green fabric.
Hello and welcome to my website!
My name is Donna. My hubby and I are retired. We have twin daughters and are blessed with 4 grandchildren. We are owned by a cat, Purrl. who loves to supervise and is very nosy.
I have been quilting since 1996. In addition to making quilts for my family and friends, I also make charity quilts for Marjoree Mason Center and Valley Children's Hospital. Marjoree Mason Center is a local organization here that helps and supports battered and abused women and children get out of abusive relationships. Every Christmas I make several baby quilts for the women, with a small stuffed animal or toy.
I also belong to the San Joaquin Valley Quilters' Guild here in Fresno. Since I retired, I have been trying to finish most of my UFOs, but my stash is way out of control! I have lately gotten into designing quilts and enjoy that even more than sewing them! I love colors of all types and consider myself to be a true scrappy quilter and I do love playing with designs.
I am the owner/moderator of Scrappy Quilters on Facebook, where we are very active with many mystery quilts, challenges and swaps. I welcome you to come by and check us out at https://www.facebook.com/groups/ScrappyQuilters.
Thank you for dropping by and I hope to see you again soon.
