OK, had to get on the bandwagon with these. Made according to the scraps left from other projects, thus the various sizes. These are just too fun and take very little time.

Those are adorable! Is there a pattern floating around, or do u have to buy one somewhere? If so, where, and I can put it on my 'want' list - long but distinguished!

No pattern at all. Just sew your scraps together, quilt, (just like a "big" quilt) add a pocket for a spoon or teabag, bind and you are done.

Thanks AlienQuilter! It is a good way to practice quilting. Now I just need to get the hang of free motion quilting. Every time I try it, am so disgusted! :-)

Unfortunately, the pic doesn't show detail. I made french knots on the flower and leaves to add texture and "quilting", so to speak! That fabric was preprinted just as is (except the blue dotted swiss); all I had to do was quilt...no piecing! Dosen't get any easier than that!
