Merry Christmas, everyone!
Here's some Christmas presents getting finished. I felt like I was visiting old friends with these two projects. The floral table runner is made with some leftover pieces from a large half hexagon quilt...see my header on the blog? Yep, that's the one ~
I love the pieced back, if I were keeping it, this side would be showing the most ~
This one is a 'Christmas prints only' Ticker Tape project.
One piece of muslin, grid drawn it to mark 15 'mug rugs', and glue stick the little pieces down.
Quilt, wash, cut apart and bind.
Voila! 15 mini gifts ~
I've been giving them away about as soon as they are bound,
sorry there are no pictures of a finished one ~
Merry Christmas, everyone!
"Behold, a virgin shall conceive, and bear a son, and shall call His name Immanuel." Isaiah 7:14
"For unto us a Child is born, unto us a Son is given: and the government
shall be upon His shoulder: and His name shall be called Wonderful,
Counsellor, The mighty God, The everlasting Father, The Prince of Peace. " Isaiah 9:6
These quilts look so fun!!
ReplyDeleteI love those mug rugs before they were cut apart. I might just have to make myself a scrappy quilt like that! :0)
ReplyDeleteVery clever Miss Pokey!
ReplyDeleteI can tell you make'em with love :0)
Merry Merry Christmas and a blessed 2014 to you and Larry
Lovin't the table runner...and the pieced backing, of course! And, the other...INGENIOUS! You are rockin' it, Pokey! I trust everything is going along fine. Happy Holidays to you and yours!
ReplyDeleteNeat how you put together all those fabric tiles to make mug rugs. Efficient, I would say! And perfect for gift-giving. Have a merry Christmas, my friend.

ReplyDeleteI love the ticker tape quilt... didn't realize it would turn in to mats! What a great idea! You are one busy girl, Ms Pokey!
ReplyDeleteMerry Christmas to you and yours!
Good for you and your finished projects! What a neat idea to make 15 little ticker tape gifties. I love that table runner, both sides! It's like a mini flower garden!
ReplyDeleteLove the pieced back too. Also love the 15 happy little gifts for 15 of your favorite people. Merry Christmas to you and Larry.
ReplyDeleteI do live your ideas for gifts. I always wanted to play with the ticker tape and the runner looks great both sides
ReplyDeleteJust wanted to pop in and wish you and yours a Merry, Merry Christmas and healthy, happy new year. I so enjoy reading your blog, Pokey! Carol
ReplyDeleteFabulous projects, Pokey!! Have a very Merry Christmas!!
ReplyDeleteVery clever way to make all the mug rugs at once, but you had me at the table runner ! Ooh, it's scrumptious and I would use ALL sides of it,.......that is, until someone came near it with something that might leave a stain ! NO.......NO !
ReplyDeleteMerry Christmas, friend !
While the hexagons are beautiful, I too would be using the back. Flowers are so cheerful in the dark days of winter! Merry Christmas!
ReplyDeleteHi Pokey. I hope your Christmas went well. I am back from a holiday and catching up on what you have been up to.
ReplyDeletePerfect accessory when I'm making gift baskets! Lovely!
ReplyDeleteThat is such an awesome idea! Love the way they look.
