August crafting

My new fall dishtowel. A kit I grabbed a few years ago from A stitch in time at a creative festival that I forgot about and found when cleaning up my craft room.


 Birthday calendar I made. Got the kit online. Painted the hearts and circles with Ivory paint. Used the label maker to add day and name to front. Year born/died on the back. Used hearts for us, our children and grandchildren. Circles for parents, siblings and their spouses. If I were to add all the nieces and nephews it would have to hang from the ceiling.


September cards. Do need to make one more as the church added another name to my list. Used the You Autumn know and Autumn foliage stamp sets



Hedgehog hot pads. Pattern Hedge fun by Susie C Shore. Fabric used was left over from the table topper/runner I made for yDD. These hot pads will be added to the runner gift for her birthday. The patchwork bag below is also left over fabric from runner. Figured DD’s could use it to store runner when it’s not on her table.




Just a little card I made and sent off. Thinking it just might be the design for the male birthday cards next year.


Couple table toppers I made to put on grandma’s sewing machine and under the table turner. They are reversible.
I made nine dishcloths and three cubbies for gifts. Two sets for Christmas and the third for next Mother’s Day. I used I love this cotton yarn from hobby lobby. Colours from top to bottom are 342–pink/green/purple, 366–moonlit frost and 370 sunlit sea foam.

Sympathy cards were made with spellbinders Be Bold blooms dies.
