Continuing with red for September RSC16, I made a doll quilt and two place mats. I have entirely too many red scraps, and refused to put them all back in the bin. The place mats are very simple, and I experimented with quilting them. One is Baptist fans, and one is free motion stars.
The place mats will be going to Meals on Wheels when I get a quantity of them. And I'm very happy to have found a new outlet for doll quilts. They're just a fun size to make, and another good way to use scraps.
These are also my OPAM finishes for September. Already working like crazy on a new project for October.
Be kind, always.........Sunny
