Hot Pink and Scrappy
Is it a Mug Rug?
Is it a Mouse Pad?
Who Cares? It's Hot Pink and Scrappy.
Today is the ONLY day since Dec 21 that we have not had holiday company. The hubby is out chopping and splitting wood and I HAD to get my Block of the Month completed before Wednesday- 2 blocks this month- and I hadn't started.
We attended church last night so this morning was delightfully leisurely.
I drank coffee.
And more coffee.
And had eggs and waffles
as I read the blogs.
I found this-
And I happen to have scraps, believe it or not.
So,
I cut and sewed my two blocks.
Then pulled out hot pink
and flowers
and buttons.
Now, I have a mouse pad
or
a breakfast bar sized mug rug.
Either way-
it works.
And I'll have my Hot Pink for January!

Very PINK! And pretty :)
ReplyDeleteI'm sure you'll find plenty of uses for it.
Thanks. I'm practicing doing the quilting myself so I'm piecing little things and working on the quilting before I do a bigger one.
DeleteYour whatever-you-call-it turned out really cute and cheerful!
ReplyDeleteI'm still working on two block of the month quilts- one very complicated so I like to do quick, simple things. Also trying to practice the quilting part.
DeleteCute way to use up scraps.
ReplyDeleteI suddenly have lots of scraps, ever since the quilt shop cleaned out their back room and put bags and bags of pieces and parts on sale at a very good price.
DeleteI love it!
ReplyDeleteThanks. I'm just messing around trying to figure out what things will look like put together and then quilted. It had a very different look just being pieced.
DeleteHow cute! I love it! Great way to use scraps.
ReplyDeleteHappy New Year!
Actually not as cute as it is pink! It's just strips that were cut in a wonky fashion and pieced together. Fast and quick but works well on the breakfast bar!
DeleteVery cute!! Your leisurely morning sounds wonderful! :)
ReplyDeleteI live for Saturday mornings (or Sunday if we go to church on Saturday night). I will even get up at 6 or 6:30 just to sit and drink coffee for an hour or so.
DeleteKathy that is really cute!
ReplyDeleteWhat a sweet little quilt. Glad you were able to use some scraps.
ReplyDeleteI LOVE IT and I strongly believe that it can have many uses : )
ReplyDeleteLooking forward to seeing what you make this week.
I am in the middle of another trivet with pink in it.
DeleteVery cheery!
ReplyDeleteThank you!
DeleteVery cute, and I love the little buttons added in the corners!
ReplyDeleteI'm very new to the quilting part of making a quilt. I thought this might be good practice.
DeleteFun way to use up scraps!
ReplyDeleteIt is pretty much fun. I like the quick projects so I keep the bigger ones from getting to routine.
DeleteGreat little quilt made with your pink scraps. We had lots of fun last year on the challenge I am sure you will enjoy it.
ReplyDeleteIf I would have know about it earlier it would have been a great time to make blocks for an entire quilt, but I've got 2 big ones going now.
DeleteThe RSC is a great way to use up all of those bits and pieces and make something wonderful with them.
ReplyDeleteI love seeing what everyone does
DeleteLovely little quilt :) A good way to use up some of those pink scraps :))
ReplyDeleteMy quilt shop cleaned out the back room and had bags of scraps for a pretty good price. I got some interesting things.
DeleteWhatever you use it for its adorable and it will be a little pick me up.
ReplyDeleteThanks- so far it's a mug rug
DeleteGreat little quilt with scraps. The Rainbow scrap challenge is really fun - I am on year 3 I think.
ReplyDeleteI think I may try to participate at least once a month.
