I love the feeling of accomplishment when I actually complete a project! This little fabric bowl was made for my friend, Janine. It is a microwave bowl holder.........you put the bowl in the holder, heat whatever in the microwave, and it saves you burned fingers from hot bowls. I made her a set of 2. One started at 10 inches and the other at 8 inches. I knew the 6 inch one would just be too hard to work with and probably never used so I eliminated it from the package.
A few blogs ago I showed you the start of this quilt......just the 10 inch squares sewn together. I am always so amazed at what beauty comes from such a humble start when using the Twister ruler. I am now making tiny Twisters to go all around for a border. Hopefully show that in a week (or so).
I got this quilt back from the quilter and hurried and put the binding on so I could give it away today. It is soooo cold here that I thought the high school graduate could use it early. She was very happy as you can see from the picture below.
She is such a happy, bubbly girl and so I thought this cheerful quilt would be perfect for her.
Several posts ago I showed this quilt. Today I gave it to another graduate. He was so surprised and excited. I've decided I give these quilts for the hugs I get back from these amazing youth.
Now that I feel all warm and fuzzy inside from my experiences tonight, I can hardly wait to get back to sewing and complete another gift for someone special.
Happy Quilting! Lynda
