Using a couple of complementary quilting patterns to suggest a set or sets. I know I never have enough pot holders.during the holidays when a lot of large meals are made and served. Maybe if there is enough fabric left over a centerpiece could me made for the table as well.

I then grabbed an old trestle table and turned our back deck into our new 'dining room'. At first I felt stuck in our tiny house, but we love eating outside (weather permitting) and it's given me so many more ideas for living resourcefully with little. :) I would make a new table cloth for my new dining table. :)Jodi Godfreyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02385968253480503033noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6513356584940430771.post-27295873834635983262013-04-25T06:26:23.123+01:002013-04-25T06:26:23.123+01:00I think a little garden tepee for kiddies to play ...I think a little garden tepee for kiddies to play in out of the sun.

A baby's summer dress made from fat quarters - the birds and spots pack in red would be lovely. Also a tea cosy and matching quilted tray cloth in the wildflower fat quarters. Tea goes cold in the garden even in summer. That gives us change out of twenty quid and two separate projects, so two months' worth of tutorials. <br /><br />Love,<br />MuvMuvhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00734374133479479218noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6513356584940430771.post-3208946736341021502013-04-24T13:53:55.616+01:002013-04-24T13:53:55.616+01:00I spied the Fat Quarters English Floral Purple Bun...I spied the Fat Quarters English Floral Purple Bundle and I think it would work great for a little garden table cloth :) (with the cheap waterproof nylon for backing!)Chelsie Chttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03858663567910541573noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6513356584940430771.post-55990629548405928832013-04-24T11:27:44.848+01:002013-04-24T11:27:44.848+01:00I would make a blanket with some water proof botto...I would make a blanket with some water proof bottom (normally the grass is wet here) and that you can roll and it has ties to carry around).

Should we by any chance have a perfect warm summer, we'll be needing the same quilt to lay on the grass while reading a good book.
