Welcome to another edition of The Guest Blogger(s)!! I heard from Jane in Australia yesterday. She has completed her entry for the October TABLE SCRAPS Challenge.
Here is what she had to say about it...
Hi Joy,
Well, it is Nov 1st here, so I have probably missed the deadline for October, but maybe it is still October where you are!
I had resigned myself to missing this prompt as well as last month, but I have been making a few samples of projects for the sewing day with the Guides and Brownies in January, and… Lo and behold, there on my table is a piece of stripe with some brown, and a strip of blue with 2, yes 2, French cats. Was meant to be, and now a hour or so later, here is a placemat.
We are offering the girls a tote bag, a drawstring bag, a placemat, a cushion cover, a coin purse and a small stuffed heart , and will have “kits” ready for those who want to sign up.
Trust you are well, haven’t even had time lately to read any blogs, will catch up as soon as I get a breather.
Scrappy hugs, Jane
I replied:
You're not too late at all, Jane! The Link Party is open through Wednesday of next week. SEW glad that one of your class projects doubled as an entry for the October TABLE SCRAPS Challenge! It sounds like the girls will have a lot of fun with your project offerings.
Happy quilting!
Joy
Give Jane some quilty love in the comments below. I'm thrilled to share her sample placemat entry with all of you. I know that you enjoy seeing her work as much as I do! Thank you for sending the photo for the blog, Jane. It's lovely to be able to post your projects (and anyone else's without a blog.) Quilters are always looking for ways to USE the scraps from our cutting tables!
Link Party REMINDER...
The October 2024 TABLE SCRAPS Link Party opened on Friday, October 25th @ 12:01 AM. There's still time for YOU to join the scrappy fun, even if you haven't started sewing yet! Small projects are quick and entries can be added until Wednesday, November 46h @ 11:59 PM (EDT).
Until next time...
USE those (table) SCRAPS!!!
