Daisy

Daisy (from Little Handfuls of Scraps by Edyta Sitar) – 12.5″ x 17″

Daisy was the March sewing project with Stacia and Deloise. Made completely from scraps but I’m happy with how it turned out. It feels very spring-like to me and there is lots of green in there for St. Patrick’s Day.

Happy Birthday Dylan B

Street Party Bunting (The Polka Dot Chair)

This card turned out much better than I thought it would. I wasn’t sure those banners would look right but, overall, I’m happy with it. It went together quickly and I’m likely to use the pattern again.

Happy Birthday Kristin

Cozy Cup Mug Rug (Melissa Mortenson – polkadotchair.com)

I try to use a butterfly in some shape or form for Kristin (in memory of Lynne). This year I found a lovely butterfly charm square so used it as an accent for the cup.

I have more of these charms so they may show up again another year.

Cole

Cole (from Little Handfuls of Scraps by Edyta Sitar)

Cole was my February project for two days of sewing with Stacia and Deloise.

When I saw the pattern it was my hope that I would already have the 48 inch-and-a-half half square triangles in my stash. It was even better when I realized that I had enough triangle scraps from a fellow quilter to put together all that I needed, and more.

Because the HSTs were already made, pressed and trimmed the project went together quickly and it was done before the end of the day.
