Variety of Sewing Projects

    I have been saving my small scraps of fabric ( too small for made-fabric or crumbs) and scraps of batting to stuff pet beds.  Several friends also save theirs for me.  This past weekend I spent several hours cutting them up smaller for stuffing.  It is more difficult to work with long strings.  I did so much cutting I formed a blister.  The result was 3 finished pet beds for donation and one more almost done. 

The style with the ridge around does take more time but I know many dogs and cats love to rest their head on or curl up against something.  I found the idea at http://shelterbeds.blogspot.com/  even though I did not follow it exactly.

Here is another link with a tutorial.


    I also made one Easter dress and matching pink shrugs for granddaughters. 



The beautiful warm days are also calling me to work in the yard so I am not sure what I will accomplish today.
Enjoy a few minutes sewing /quilting!
