I'm finishing up my Zakka project for this week just "under the wire". Week #7 is the Rain Cloud Mug Rug, designed by Christie Fowler of
http://www.pigeon-pair.com. Her post features homemade pasta today, and it looks soooo good. Makes me want to get a pasta machine and start rolling! When I started my little mug rug I did not have a plain blue for my cloud background, so... this is what I used.

Yes, the background is floral. Ok...if you must make a connection, clouds bring rain, and rain makes flowers grow -- OR...... |
|
...if you use your imagination these flowers look like cumulonimbus clouds!

After finishing the front of this little mug rug, I did my regular Saturday shopping and found this great plain blue fabric. Too bad I didn't have it for the cloud side, but here it is as a backing.
I also sewed together a reusable shopping bag last evening to use as "gift wrap" for a shower gift. I used an Amy Butler fabric, and love how bright it is.

Any guesses on what's wrapped inside? |
Windshield wipers.
ReplyDeleteWindshield wipers would make a unique gift, but... nope. Not that. :)
