However, doesn't God want us to help others?

What are the "things" of men? 

Thoughtful & Throw Back Thurs: Flat Bowl Holders

 

A friend's daughter was getting married, so I wanted to make a gift for her new home. Went back to the "Flat Bowl Holders" that I designed to take up less space in storage, but do the same job as the stiff bowl holders. A plus is they can be used as a hot pad to set a dish/pot on.

  So of course as I was making these, I had to record a photo diary. EnJOY!

 

  

 

From April 16, 2016

 

I had to start by "franken" scrap cotton batting together.

Used 12.5 inch squares. 

 
 

Preparing lining

I made 4 of them.

Thoughtful Thur~ 250 Celebration Yard Flag

 

 

The only thing I had in mind for this flag was

the fabric I would use to cut the numbers.

The font is just the same old free hand cut

I've made since way back doing 

bulletin boards for the classroom.

 

Once I pulled out my fabrics (my color pallet),

and started laying out bits and pieces 

the ideas came to my head.

 

The height of letters about 6 inches

and width 5 inches.

 

The "ribbons" are 2.5 inches wide.

They were cut off where the bottom piece was added.

The ribbons were only appliqued down about 3 inches.

The rest was left to hang free.

Here you see one is still wet from 

Fray Check being applied.

The one on the left is already dry.

 

I still have my bottle of Fray Check from 

about 20 years ago

when we thought we had to have it to

finish serger end seams.

 

 

I didn't notice till I pulled up the pictures on the computer

I forgot to applique the center of the zero.

In the quilting world around here

we have a saying for accepting mistakes,

"If you can't see it while riding by on a fast horse,

then it's acceptable."

So will the cars driving by see that?

The walkers, maybe?

Since it has iron on interfacing on the back

I'm not worried. 

 

 What a great year to celebrate!
