A Little Side Trip

 Just taking a little break from 

the big quilts with some small stuff.

First up on the chore list is the coveralls.

I just need to cut off the bottoms 

worn out from dragging on the ground.

There was just enough fabric left from 

the cutoff to make a small cuff,

with the salvaged fabric, and they're done.

 

Next is a bunch of small quilts.

The Northwest Babies gives out

any size quilts for stroller use, 

 so it's a good spot for all my bits of quilts 

that just need some zhuzhing up 

to be turned into lovely little treasures.


First up is this little nine-patch. 

It will get a sawtooth border from 

triangles that were gifted with it. 

 An extra block will be deconstructed 

to make hourglass cornerstones.

Tada! It was a bit more work than I bargained for, 

but it turned out very well.



I managed to pull out enough flannel bits that 

all of these little quilts will have 

cozy flannel backs.

Next was this beautiful autumn block that 

was left over from a guild table topper challenge 

a number of years ago. 



I found an absolutely perfect flannel piece in the bin, 

and with an additional border, 

this little quilt will be warm and fuzzy 

for a little person this winter.

The hits keep on coming.

 The Discovery table yielded this big purple star, 

a leftover from my star string quilts two years ago.

I must have had a late night and 

made two purple stars, 

because this one didn't make it into the quilt top.

A cute piece of flannel later and, 


A cozy 31" square cuddle quilt for a stroller!

The little kitties around the outside are adorable. 


This triangular beauty was waiting 

for bigger borders to be turned into a twin.

 I just couldn't resist and it joined the party

 as a wonderful little snuggle quilt 

with cows and pigs on the back.


Only two more to go!

This sweet little four-heart square has been 

wandering around sewing room.


The table yielded a little bundle of strips and, voila.


Four extra stars and one more border,

will make it a perfect size to snuggle up with.

The last one here is a beautiful, very elegant log cabin topper.

I found a soft flannel back for it that should

 make it cuddly and still maintain its elegant look.


Whoops here is another from the discovery table.




This one will be an add-on at the end, 

since it requires a piano key red border 

that isn't quite complete.

It is a snow day here today, 

so I should have lots of time to get all these 

little tops layered and stitched. 


Stay safe and Sew On!
