New Potholders to Cheer My Kitchen
My old potholders had seen better days. I decided to make two new ones. Used the leftover fabric from a purse I made for my granddaughter. Also incorporated the owl that I had embroidered earlier. The design is from Hatched in Africa. I am pleased with how they turned out. They should add a cheerful note to my kitchen.

Craftsy BOM 2013 - First 3 Blocks
On a whim, I decided to join the Craftsy BOM for 2013. What could I lose? The class was free and I determined to use fabric that is in my stash. So no cost...just my time. The class focuses on various blocks, many of which I have never made before. Free class -- no cost for material -- chance to work on my piecing accuracy. How could I lose.
I've made 3 blocks (can't believe I am not behind) and I am beginning to like the way the blocks are coming together. I love starting with a little bit of this and a little bit of that and not knowing how it's going to turn out until it's done.
