DID SOMEONE SAY SMALL?

Winner has been drawn by random number generator

Comment #1

Thanks to all for leaving a comment!

BIGGER IS BETTER?

GOOD THINGS COME IN SMALL PACKAGES?

WASTE NOT, WANT NOT?
Today is the bog hop for small, smaller, smallest projects

and I'm going small and scrappy!

I have lots of scraps and two projects for you today.

IF you make it to the end of this post...

there is a giveaway!

Thanks to Carol over at Just Let Me Quilt

for hosting this hop!

Small Smaller Smallest

Of course I have some projects...

but I also have some links to fun and quick small projects.
Lets begin with some scrappy fabric coasters.

Sewed together HST from my scraps and

sized all to 4.5" squares

and then folded them like so...

Here is a link to my tutorial that will show you

step by step on how to make coasters from charms

(5" squares) Make sure to see how I do this!

Here is the finished "small" scrappy coaster (3 1/2" square)

--------------------------------------------------

Anyone need a small thread catcher?

I love this one that I received as a swap extra!

Sew for this hop...

I grabbed my scraps and made a tutorial...

SMALL THREAD CATCHER TUTORIAL

Start with 2, 10" squares...

Remember, I am using scraps, sew

I pieced together fabric scraps to get them.

The pink seabirds...has SF101 on the back!

Don't care...it will work for this!

I needed a template and found a local map

to cut a 9 1/2" triangle template

Laid my two squares, one on top the other

Template on top, cut the triangles.

Right sides together, sew 1/4" seam allowance all

around, leaving an opening to turn...

Trim the points off before turning RS out

Once turned RS out and pressed

Top Stitch 1/8" around

Place two points together and mark 2 1/2" down and marked

that spot with a straight pin.

From the fold sew up to the straight pin

Repeat for the other two points

It will look like this when all 3 sides are sewn

kinda origami..right?

Now finish it by securing the tips with buttons.

It's very small and fits nicely in your sewing kit.

You can really make these any size that you want.

Just cut your two squares larger and make the triangle

to fit inside those squares.
