Lovely @Kad.  I used to quite enjoy doing all that.  Don’t bother now.

Wow, that's lovely!  @Kad, would you be able to do a thread on just how you created that fabric?  I'm really interested.
@Bodgeitandscarper
I could do a thread that details the methods and 'ingredients' that I use, together with alternatives and options, but as I approach this as a 'play' activity I will/can not give precise instructions how to recreate this exact fabric.

A new pattern to me. A Gingercake oven mitt which I found on YouTube but then read about on her blog. So easy to make  :thumb: I used fat quarters and lightly quilted it. I added a hanger which wasn't in the pattern.   [ You are not allowed to view attachments ]

Ann Belcham Entry #2.

I used up the left over fabric from the gift bag and left over stabilizer from other projects to make mug rugs. These are embroidered in the hoop on my embroidery machine. There were no issues with the design as it is well digitized. The biggest thing is to sit near the machine to change the thread, add the batting and fabrics when needed and hand sew the back opening closed while waiting.

Bumblebunchers entry #1 and only
  [ You are not allowed to view attachments ]    [ You are not allowed to view attachments ]  
Hand embroidered from pics found on the internet!  Made with cream linen (it does have kitty fabric inside but limiting pics) and (as usual with me) I made the whole thing up as I went along putting it together with the only wadding that they had for sale at my local shop and a plate for the pattern!

As it neared the top of the grade, it went more slowly. However, it still kept saying, "I—think—I—can, I—think—I—can." It reached the top by drawing on bravery and then went on down the grade, congratulating itself by saying, "I thought I could,  I thought I could."
