little quilts

little, little quilts.
so simple.
so fun.
I love the olives on the back!
These are little gifts for friends.
I love giving these little quilts away!
(i mean potholders)...


red and yellow!
the same and yet not QUITE the same.
Scraps aren't always
in the exact amount you need. :)



The backs of these potholders
were made from a piece left over from
a red and white quilt that I loved.
Fabric scraps almost always brings back
MEMORIES.


Here's what I decided to do with those poor
little blocks I mentioned on Wednesday.
At least THREE of them get to see the
light of day now!
And......This table runner was so-o-o easy....
that the other blocks may be able
to get out of the drawer soon also!




Here it is welcoming the family home!






The backing...
Interesting fabric......
But not sure I want to look at it
ALL the time. :)

    The tablerunner you made from your lonely blocks is per-FECT on that chest. Good choice.

  3. I need new potholders in the worst way! Do you put something special in the middle to keep your hands from burning?

  5. Pretty potholders! And the table runner is very nice. Good way to use some of the blocks. The other one is nice too, that has the orange/purple back. Even if the orange block ended up on the end.
