Rhonda,
I wanted to say thank you, and show you a mug rug I made from the 1.5 inch template you sent me. [ATTACH=CONFIG]432041[/ATTACH] I really enjoy doing the smaller pieces. This was about 10.5 inches square. I have been lurking on this thread for a while, and enjoy the conversation. I wanted you to know that you have inspired me to go small as well as big. If you want more patterns using my template methods you can see my original designs in my albums http://www.quiltingboard.com/members...bums17944.html http://www.quiltingboard.com/members...bums17759.html http://www.quiltingboard.com/members...bums17760.html http://www.quiltingboard.com/members...bums17761.html |
I think I ended up calling it HST Star, I put a photo up and asked people what it was called since I could not find the name. I thought it was the Ohio star. Thanks for the links.

DeDemac Oh that is just lovely. Rhonda I think you have created another convert to miniatures. A great group to belong to!
|
I love to see more people enjoying the mini world of quilting!! It is fun because you can do so many diff things in a shorter time than it takes to make a full size quilt.

Anyone interested in another item swap? We haven't done one in awhile. I know fall can get really crazy so now is the time to fit a swap in!
I need at least 4 people to swap. |

My mom bought some old mags at a yard sale and one of them was a woman's magazine that had this project in it. It was a 2003 mag. She asked me to make some tails for these pinball turkeys. I thought I might make each feather a diff fabric and see how they come out. I know there are alot of turkey patterns out there but this one looks like fun to me. I did make one tail last night but need to seam between the feathers yet. I made it bigger tho as the pattern looks too small for me. It is only one fabric which is what the pattern calls for. My mom picked out 7 diff fabrics for 7 tails so I will make those for her first and then play with some scrappy ideas for the tails.
If you dont' have a bowling pin I am sure there are lots of turkey patterns you could substitute for the bowling pin. |
Dede, your mugrug is adorable! Sooo pretty!
Rhonda, I know I've seen that turkey before. :) I've painted a wooden one with bright different colored tail feathers and it was super cute that way! I like your idea...will want pictures of course... :):) |
That is stunning Rhonda! Very nice indeed.
|
Thanks Anna

What fun these minatures are.
