 I didn't get a ton done yesterday. I had an appointment in the morning and visited a friend in the afternoon. In between I got 10 more potholder kits cut out. the ones made from the mandala fabrics are going to be really cool. I'll cut out some more before I start to do some sewing.  I was thinking about things while I was cutting and I had an epiphany. I've always marked the potholder quilting lines with a ruler and chalk wheel. Then I remembered that I had a set of stencils that would allow me to mark them a lot faster. This is really going to speed up construction.  It's full summer here so I thought it would be fun to do some ice dyeing this weekend. After my appointment I stopped by Walmart to pick up some tshirts to dye and Friday I'll fold some fabrics. One thing I want to dye is quilt back for the houses quilt. I think this will make for a fun weekend.

I love the mandala fabrics you showed previously and they will make beautiful pot holders (too pretty, in my estimation, to actually use!).

It certainly looks like you will have a fun but busy weekend. The stencil to mark the lines looks great. I never mark mine - of course the lines are not straight, but, they are still loved.

That fabric will make some beautiful potholders! I need to figure out what I need to accomplish this weekend. Michael has a show Saturday that will suck up a lot of my time. Comments are closed.
