Pocket Mug Rug (by Julie Cefalu)

This isn’t the pattern I had planned for my April cards but when the English paper-pieced hexies didn’t work out I turned to this one. I used it at Christmas and it was relatively easy to make. It seemed appropriate as everyone in April is getting gift cards.

Daisy

Daisy (from Little Handfuls of Scraps by Edyta Sitar) – 12.5″ x 17″

Daisy was the March sewing project with Stacia and Deloise. Made completely from scraps but I’m happy with how it turned out. It feels very spring-like to me and there is lots of green in there for St. Patrick’s Day.

Street Party Bunting (The Polka Dot Chair)

This card turned out much better than I thought it would. I wasn’t sure those banners would look right but, overall, I’m happy with it. It went together quickly and I’m likely to use the pattern again.

Happy Birthday Kristin

Cozy Cup Mug Rug (Melissa Mortenson – polkadotchair.com)

I try to use a butterfly in some shape or form for Kristin (in memory of Lynne). This year I found a lovely butterfly charm square so used it as an accent for the cup.

I have more of these charms so they may show up again another year.
