When I saw the "April Showers" blog hop I couldn't resist
MAKING A SPLASH! Mdm Samm is always causing us to "puddle" with her fun hops and Erin over at "Sew at Home Mummy" has that huge "umbrella" open for us all as she cheers us on!
Check out my tutorial (tab) for step by step photos to make a
Quilt As You Go Mug Rug....from scraps!
Great for any season or reason.
Bunnies always show up in my garden in April....
Have they given up the plants for my Bailey's and Coffee?

ReplyDeleteHow cute! That fabric line is perfect for the mug rug theme. THX for the tutorial and the chance to win the little fabric bundle. I am just NOT an outdoor person so I guess my fav spring activity is just watching the signs of spring appear---trees beginning to form leaves, the bushes, shrubs and various plantings beginning to flower. No desire to plant them myself but I enjoy that others have!
ReplyDeleteSo fun to share the hop today with you!
ReplyDeleteI love the fabric of the little girls with umbrellas...adorable!
In the spring, I enjoy getting the garden ready for planting and soaking up the warm sun!
I love to work in the garden, getting it ready. Another lovely afternoon jaunt is a drive along a nearby area where apple trees bloom--that's a few weeks away yet.
ReplyDeleteLove the rainy day mug rug! I enjoy walking in the rain (not a downpour) and just enjoying the new birth of the season.
ReplyDeleteKathy,
ReplyDeleteOur yard bunnies haven't returned to the yard for spring yet...looking forward to the day! Last year the baby bunnies would explore our back porch! Your mug rug is splashy fun! I really like how the different pieces are tosed to and fro as rain in a spring storm. I think my favorite spring activity is watching the emerging of green and new life. :)

ReplyDeleteKathy-Your little mug rug is so cute and the theme so appropriate for Spring. Congrats on your retirement. My favorite thing to do in Spring, since I've been retired, is to sew/quilt. Therefore, my sister and I are going on a Shop Hop next week-can't wait to visit 14 stores I've never been to!
