This message mat has a vintage 9-patch block, that I picked up at a country auction, embellished with buttons, ribbon and Comfort in Psalms fabric. I also used dryer sheets, feed sack and red, white & blue vintage fabric as a base.
Welcome to my patchwork journal. I enjoy expressing myself through fiber. Tiny pieces of vintage quilt blocks and fabric combined with hand stitches create my art. When not quilting I'm living a patchwork life. Always changing and helping to keep me young and on my toes. Join me in my experiences and thoughts.

Never To Early
I've started thinking about this year's Church Bazaar. It never seems to early to start making quilts for a cause. I have a couple of ideas in the works for this year. The message mats and quilts in a jar I made last year were a big hit, so I'm expanding on those ideas again. I've made a couple of message mats and have some smaller quilts in a jar under construction. I'm thinking of a wall hanging with a message and some Art Jars for the creative kiddo. I'll be posting more photos later.

ReplyDeleteWonderful little table message mat! Thinking ahead is a good thing, your preparing to get it all done now instead of the stress for last minute ideas. Good stuff.
