Cute sewing

I have been sewing something that is cute and also useful. I have made these oven mitts before but I don't know if I took a photo of them before I gave them away.

I first saw this pattern at a quilt show but I didn't buy it. It seems I had to think about it for a while and finally I did purchase the pattern at a quilt store - months later. Not all quilt stores carried it because I remember when I was out west a couple of years ago I asked about it and described it to the proprietor of a quilt store. She didn't have it but looked it up on the internet and after I confirmed that that was indeed the pattern I was after, she promptly declared it cute and put in an order for it.



Here's the latest ones - cupcake oven mitts. Cute and useful.


I am linking up with The Needle and Thread Network.

  7. I agree with the shop owner: those are cute! Practical as well, which always justified anything. Though you should never need a reason to create something. Just wanting to make something is enough.
