I know, I know, more rugs.......
I've finally gotten back to the sewing machine. Had the cording made earlier this winter, but got these three rugs stitched up recently.
Stenciled and stitched up fall themed pillows this weekend. The first picture is of the fronts and the second is the backs. I cut up a coordinating panel and border print for some of the backs.
I typically sell at craft fairs in the fall, but I seriously dought there's going to be any, with Covid floating around. I also sew for our local hospital gift shop, but it is currently closed too, it is ran by the hospital volunteer's and many of them are not volunteering currently due to many of them are in the high risk category. But I look at it this way, they won't spoil, go bad, or expire, and they are done, I'll just fill the pillows when I am able to sell them, much easier to store them flat for now. Quick projects to work on during the summer months, as menopause is kicking my butt this summer, don't think I could have a quilt top on me as I pieced it during these hot summer months. Ugh....🥵

Your rugs and pillows are beautiful. I have never tried my hand at rug making and this is an inspiration. I am not quite ready and wish there was someone close by to me to teach me a few tips.. For now I will continue to quilt away!
