A little bit of fun..
 
1 Attachment(s)
In my mini group (I was the hostess) we are doing a little off key bit of fun. We blindly drew a 10 x 10 piece of fabric that each of us brought. Our assignment is to make a pot holder from part or all of it. Then next month we will blindly draw again.

Here's mine. The fabric that I drew was the fabric in the tea pot.

nicely done

Aww, that's cute! blindly drew as in blindfolded? That's pretty good. I can't trace my hand with my eyes closed.

I think she means she drew the fabric without looking to see what was there, rather than drawing the teapot with her eyes closed. ???

Thanks everyone.
Yup, LOL.
We put them in a paper bag and passed it around. I won't be keeping it, someone else will draw it. We can't keep the one we made.

Oh it is so cute. Sounds like a fun group & game. :thumbup:

Very cute. Show us the one you get also.

RedGarnet222 07-03-2013 03:23 PM

Oh dear what a great potholder! I love the amount quilting you used on it too. I hate those ones that fall apart in the wash the fist time cleaning them.

QM 07-03-2013 03:24 PM

The one wh gets that teapot is sure to love it.

rootyr 07-03-2013 03:41 PM

Great job!

Barbwork 07-03-2013 03:54 PM

How fun. And you've got great imagination.

EvelynJ 07-03-2013 03:59 PM

I love the use of the fabric for the teapot! That is great. You did a marvelous job and it look like a lot of fun too. Bridget says it's a beauty and she loves it very much.

joyce888 07-03-2013 06:10 PM

That's so cute and the fabric is perfect for the pot!

Jingle 07-03-2013 06:42 PM

Beautiful pot holder. I hope you get a really good one.

GeePatti 07-04-2013 04:13 AM

Great idea! I should try to get that going around here...

What do you put inside for batting?

gabeway 07-04-2013 04:20 AM

Looks good.

#1piecemaker 07-04-2013 04:22 AM

How cute!! Too bad you can't keep it. I'd like to see the eyes of the person that draws this one.

I use warm & natural cotton batting. You can also use insulbrite with it, but I never get burned without it. I make ALL my own potholders because the ones you buy are too slippery for me.

grammysharon 07-04-2013 08:06 PM

That is much to pretty to use!!!!!!

twinkie 07-05-2013 03:02 AM

Thanks, my own idea, but not my design. I cannot digitize embroidery designs.

MAK'58 07-05-2013 08:18 AM

Very clever, love the color combo.
