Here are some of the “side” projects I’ve been working on over the last month or so.
“Side” meaning small quickies, that aren’t my goal UFOs (Unfinished Objects).
A QAYG (quilt as you go) zippered pouch.
A few candle mats/mug rugs.
With these side projects out of the way, I can get back to finishing my last goal UFO.
Happy Weekend!

A Thread for Life
In June we started a mug rug swap at Quilters Anonymous. QA is a chapter of the Arizona Quilters Guild (AQG) and the one I’m a member of.
I didn’t make a patriotic mug rug to swap in July, but when they announced that “summer” would be the theme for the August swap, I already knew what I’d bring.
This is the first block I made from the Bikini Quilt Pattern by Lorna at Sew Fresh Quilts.
Even though it’s larger than your usual mug rug, I thought it perfect for the Summer themed swap.
Can you see why I’ve dubbed it The “Jugs” Rug?
Thanks for stopping by.

We must lay before Him what is in us; not what ought to be in us. – C.S. Lewis
After not really feeling my first batch of mug rugs, I decided not to use any of the original Asian fabric after all.
I instead chose these blues, which still give off an Asian vibe. I like these much better. 
In addition to the Mock Logs block, I made one called Forest Paths. Both patterns are from Quilt Blocks Galore aka Quilter’s Cache.
It was quite the chore binding the first block, so I opted for a quick turn/birthing method on the second one. This suited me much better and it’ll be my method of choice for finishing any/all mug rugs I make in the future.

Done, given, and loved!

Above all, clothe yourselves with love, which binds us all together in perfect harmony. And let the peace that comes from Christ rule in your hearts. For as members of one body you are called to live in peace. And always be thankful. – Col. 3:14-15
