Parish Fair Offerings
Well, here is Sophisticated Strings, all machine quilted (stitched in the ditch) and bound! I'm pleased with how it turned out.
The little church where I work is having a parish fair in a few weeks and I offered a baby quilt for the Silent Auction. I think Sophisticated Strings fills that bill nicely and hope that it will bring in a little money.
Yes, I'm going to count it towards my 101 Projects to use up scraps. One day this week I'm going to set up a separate page for these projects.
The parish fair coordinator seemed so happy to have the offer of a quilt that I decided I'd make a dozen pot holders to donate to the crafts booth. These are the first two.
I had a great time making them. The other ten are all pieced and sandwiched. I'm slowly binding them (wrap around binding from the backing) in front of television.

Cute potholders, too! For projects this small, I also often bring the backing fabric around to act as binding.
Rain is likely later today for us and we need it. Some of the trees are donning their autumn colors and they are lovely.
Hugs!
