Country Cool Napkins (Part 4)

These are the final two napkins of the set.  They have been finished for some time now, I just had not gotten around to photographing them until now.

Snorkel Baby Quilt

This sweet quilt is made with the Snorkel fabric line designed by Cosmo Cricket.

 I am quite pleased as all my corners match up!  The quilting by Miss Regina Carter is lovely.  I made continuous tubular binding and really slowed myself down so the corners have the loveliest miters.  I am very proud of every stitch I put into this piece.

The binding fabric (also seen on the stripe down the back of the quilt) has a great effect when cut on the bias and I really think it gives it a lovely finish.

Oval Bunny Rag Rug

I made this little rag rug from my old t-shirts. It is the first thing I have ever really crocheted. To be honest, it is pretty poorly made and does not lay flat at all.


Hopefully, there will only be improvements in my future rag rugs.   Although my audience is not complaining, that is really the joy of making things for your pets!

(Isn't Nutmeg the cutest model ever!  She actually works for food and refuses to starve herself too.)

Special Traveler Kit

One of my favorite things to create is a Field Guide for different locations as I travel and explore.  Although I do not share the insides directly here, this is my overall set up that I use when I travel. In the past, I simply used a plastic bag, but now I do believe I will upgrade myself to a quilted pouch as well...

This travel kit was made for a special lady in my life that is a great supporter to my creative side as well.  Actually, quite a few years ago she got me the fabric I used to make it too!

Panda Lunch Sack

This sack will hold perfect bamboo snacks!

Similar in style to other lunch bags that I have made, but a little different too.  The pink fabric continues on the inside as well. I enjoy the variations that are possible with a good basic design.

Hopefully its new owner will find it sweet and enjoyable too.
