First, drink 7 bottles of beer! A little sewing by hand.

Put together!

You need these pieces. Use 3" circles with bottle cap inside for body.

Here's the process.

My grandmother did these but instead of fabric she crocheted around the caps. I don't think she drank the 7 bottles of beer but I wouldn't put it past her--she lived to be 99 1/2! Love your project.

Sorry- put this in the wrong place!

Sew, sew adorable. Love all your projects. Thank you for taking the time to post them. I made 4 donut pincushions today out of 1 FQ (with some left over) and love, love, love them. My quilt club friends will drool (sorry for pun). Will definitely be giving them for friendship gifts. Here's a pic without the pins - wet paint, you know? Wish I had some white paint too - but next time, and there will definitely be a next time.

? Maybe from 3 " squares. I made it up as I went along/ Legs are 1/2 of head size. Tail is just a knotted strip. They are very playful!

Love the donut. Now I'm trying to think of the right color of fabric. Might have to make a fabric run.

dotcomdtcm 08-14-2010 07:51 AM
dark tea stain?

Miss Mona 08-14-2010 08:01 AM
Havn't thought of tea stain for a long time. Used to do it on muslin to get a variety of background. Thanks

Chrickett 08-14-2010 12:58 PM
