Quilted owl potholders!

No Comments »

Back in the summer We drove to Halifax to visit family and generally chill out. By chance, we stopped in at Atlantic Fabrics and got blown away. We picked up so many crafty things, including a pattern for these adorable owl potholders.

The fabric is mostly Dr. Seuss (check out those stripes!) and they’re lined with quilting batting. I was really happy with how they turned out, and was thinking of packaging them with an appliquéd tea towel. What do you think?

Laminated cotton

Omg you guys! I found the most adorable laminated fabric at Atlantic Fabrics! It was quite spendy (nearly $30 a meter!) but I couldn’t resist. I’m going to make a rain jacket for my dog, Tug. Maybe even a little sou’wester to match 😉
