Long time, no sew.

Not much sewing going on at my house.
Aaron is only home for 2 more days. Its been so nice having him home for these two weeks. 
His piles of stuff, not so much. 
I wonder how he fit all of it in his dorm room????


I did take a pile of scraps to work yesterday.
I cut them into 2-1/2 inch strips or 5 inch charm squares. 
They will go into my someday I will make something out of this stuff pile

Mug rug for work

Before












I used some pastel scraps for the front. Part of a flannel remnant I got at walmart ( a 1/3 yard for 32 cents. I figured I used 8 cents worth, lol) for the back. I stitched them right sides together with a scrap piece of flannel for the batting and top stitched around the edge.

fabric additions

I went a little nuts adding to my fabric stash this last week or so.
I always dig through the remnant pile at walmart. I plan to make a couple more I spy quilts and remnants are perfect. This pile has some Winnie the Poo, Dora, firetrucks, Easter bunnies, and a nice size piece of Packer cotton.

The other pictures are some fun fabrics. No rhyme or reason to them, I just liked them. The Micheal Miller pirate piece will go into a baby boy blanket someday.
