Grab a few, FUN Quilting Patterns

Click the link for some unique and fun quilting patterns http://quiltingforless.com/products.html

If you are like me, Christmas is EXHAUSTING! All those last minute shopping trips, and in my case, slick icy roads are not all that fun! I would prefer to sit at my sewing machine and create some fun things. Saturday, I made some hotpads for my mother-in-law. I think my FIL will probaby use them more. He is a baker and loves to be in the kitchen. Here is a picture of them.. The finished block is 8" which makes a very nice size for a hotpad.


Here are a few tips on how to make a hot pad.

Do NOT use batting! The batting will tend to get very hot when next to a hot pan coming out of the oven. I use my old towels, hand towels or washcloths instead of batting. I usuall put two layers of towell material between the quilt block and the backing. Then I use a polyester filament thread as my top thread and a thread to match the backing fabric in the bobbin.

It has been very busy around here. This is a good thing! You may want to get your orders in for Christmas! Time is running out. I can't believe that the year is almost over! We are still waiting for snow, which we are so badly in need of. We need water to grow those good Idaho potatoes!! Hope the holiday will be a blessed time of year!
