Mini-Charmers and an Oven Mitt UFO

Last night at guild, Janet and I did a demo on these cute bags. After the meeting and a stop for some ice cream, I went home and finished up my two bags. I'm not sure what I'll do with them, but I'll figure that out later.



I also finished a long-overdue UFO, an oven mitt. I stitched the first edge of the binding on by machine and the other side by hand while watching the election returns.I'm not sure of the pattern, but it's either a simplicity or McCalls pattern and I'm not sure if I will make a mate for it. The lining is cotton batting and a layer of Insul-Bright.



Halloween night at Rossville Quilts, Sue G (AKA, Lucy Ricardo) took my picture, well, the picture of Sister Ruth actually, praying that she will use the fabric she just purchased.

    I purchased the outfit at a Halloween shop years ago. We went to a party that year and lo and behold, there was a priest there. We had a great time at that party.

    Loved Sister Ruth, I wonder if you dressed in this more often...could you buy even more fabric. Too cute. Once I dressed as a nun years ago...for a Baptist Church party, I thought it was pretty funny.
