| The quilt I am currently working on doesn't have any applique on it, so I need handwork to do in front of the TV at night. |
 |
| A dear friend sent me a couple of these darling pot holders for a gift and I loved them. I had her get me a pattern and started sewing a few up, making some changes to the pattern just for fun. |
 |
| They work up really quickly and they are so charming, happy and retro! |
 |
| Of course, I also have to have a few dish towels to work on. |
 |
| I lined a few up on my side gate in the lovely sunshine. The bowl pattern was one I sort of made up. Sometimes my ideas work and sometimes then just don't. |
 |
| I know this looks like a Mary Englebreit pattern, but I actually copied it from a tablecloth and napkin set my Mom embroidered and appliqued when she was a young girl - before M.E. (or I) was even born! |

| I wanted to close with a quote from the Doctrine and Covenants that I read in an Ensign article this week: | "Where fore, be not weary in well-doing, for ye are laying the foundation of a great work. And out of small things proceedeth that which is great: D& C 64:33 |

Those are the worlds cutest idea for a pot holder! And will look just as good on a quilt.
I love the little house, absolutely precious!
