I made two new projects over the last couple of days. First up was a fabric cover for a regular old composition book you can buy anywhere for a dollar or so. I fussy cut some heart & hand motifs from a piece of fabric I had in my stash, and centered them in three square-in-a-square blocks. I made this to take to church with me each week so I can jot down notes about the lessons and talks that I hear - then I can re-read them later to think more about what I learned.
Yesterday was a meeting of the Utah Rug & Fiber Guild. Jennifer graciously shared a design with the group for a cute little Valentine flower pillow. I got all the hooking done before the end of the meeting, then stitched it together and stuffed it that evening.
I still want to add the cute loops around the edge like Jennifer did below, but I didn't have any beads in my stash so need to buy some one day soon.
So fun to have a quick couple of projects to do!
Sweet Valentine heart. I am in the mood for Valentine projects.
ReplyDeleteNice finishes--the heart is that a valentine for your sweetie?

I love the cute heart and the loops around really adds a little something special.
ReplyDeleteThe book cover is a great idea. It really makes your book stand out and no chance of misplacing it somewhere.
Take care, Hugs,
