Keychain Fobs
These little things are addicting! There's another set I've made that never got documented. It's a quick easy project that's a great way to use up scraps. I can't decide which one is my favorite. I think I'm up to at least 30 finished.
Burp Cloths
Another thing that has become an addiction. Once I got a stack cut out, they came together pretty quick. About 2 days worth of Henry naps. Another project that it's easy to get a stack ready and just power through at the sewing machine. I decided whatever I don't sell, I can always use as gifts.
Taggie Blankets
These range from 8x8 to 10x10. I buy the minky fabric specifically for this, but the flannel side is my way of using flannel leftovers. (I have a little problem with flannel, especially baby flannel. It's so soft and fun! I have 7 more yards sitting and waiting). I've acquired a variety of ribbon and once they get pinned together, they come together quick as well. (I like quick projects!). Not a very good picture but there's not really two alike. All fairly unique.
Coasters
This is something I'm still pondering. Another great use of smaller pieces I have on hand. I like that these four don't match, but they still go together. I'm still working with the design and amount of batting to put in the middle. I think they'd be cute in seasonal fabrics.
Cell Phone Charger Holder
One of my sisters requested I figure out how to make these. They come together easily. (Did one during Henry nap time) After my first one (on the right) I made some adjustments to fit my larger phone and ended up with the one on the left. I like how these turned out. A suggestion I read was to put a command hook next to the outlet rather than hang on the outlet. That works great and it doesn't slip off the charger. Shorter one fits iPhone 4s size great and the larger fits my iPhone 6 much better. Room even to tuck in cables.
And the last thing. Didn't involve the sewing machine, but it was mighty tasty!
So that's what I've been up to lately. It was a fairly productive summer. I also have a quilt that is finished, but I'm waiting on a niece/nephew to make an appearance first before I post it. Pictures are ready to go though. Stay tuned for that!
