Orange Slice Hot Pad–a Finish

July 7, 2017 by persimondreams 5 Comments

A bit ago I got a new book – “simple, fun & quickly done” by Terry Atkinson.  It includes 18 easy-to-sew table runners, bags, pillows and more.  I’m digging the different projects in the book.  They’re just like the title says – they’re simple, fun and quick!  IMG_4151 The first project I tackled is this fantastic orange slice hot pad.  Isn’t it adorable?  Wouldn’t this make a great Christmas gift?  I think I’ll be making fruit slice sets (orange, lime, and lemon) for family … hmmm .. they would also make cool teacher gifts for the start of the year (or Christmas).  IMG_3521 I finished binding this little orange guy at a softball game so I had to take a picture with the proper background.  Also, I think I may try to do a watermelon one … green outside, white, and then red polka dotted fabric perhaps?  IMG_3522 I know it’s only July but it’s not a bad idea to get started on some of those gifts you want to make.  Just browsing through the book I know this is a great resource for some adorable, unique things. The Bacon-and Eggs Hot Pad is on my list next … it’s a perfect project for the “Summer Sizzle Project QUILTING Challenge!” Linking up to Finish It Up Friday

    Cute idea – I have a ruler I could use for that. I'll keep and eye out for the book.
