today i...

...made a cute little patchwork embroidery hoop for my urban home goods swap partner (still finishing up my main project).

and saved a couple scraps of batting by stitching them together! was so glad to not have to cut off the large roll if i didn't have to. :)


these were my settings for the zig zag stitch.


hope you are having a terrific thursday!

    Cute hoop!

    I have also stitched together batting but found it annoying that I could feel the joined pieces in the quilt I used it in, which sucks because I do like using up all my batting

    Your little embroidery hoop project is precious!

    Thanks for the batting tip. I've been wondering if I could do that. I'll give it a try!

    me? a mom? when i stitch mine they are side by side with no overlapping. the zig zag is what attaches them. i can't tell were it is once i quilt it. :)
