It's the second Tuesday of August, and the Scraptastic Tuesday monthly link is open.
Usually I share my own scrappy project first but I have nothing to share. It has been a month of outside stuff, painting walls inside my house, watching movies, having extra naps and other summer stuff in addition to still working at my day job.
But I have been knitting a lot - it is more portable. I have finished these handwarmers and once they are blocked I will post properly about them here. In fact, I will start posting here regularly again, I miss being in this space and I miss my sewing room. I have several ideas and before that a quilt or two that need to be finished by months end.
Nicky, my Scraptastic Tuesday partner over at Mrs. Sew and Sow, has started a new scrappy sampler that she has designed and is sharing with us. I'm going to sew along with her, you might want to check it out too.
A huge thank you to our generous sponsors for providing the following prizes which will be awarded randomly among those of you who link up.

I was scrapalicous this past weekend and put together a scrappy quilt top. Thank you for hosting - your linkup fits in perfectly with my thrifted fabric finds!
ReplyDeleteSounds like you've been super busy! I'm all for taking a nap now and then! Thanks for hosting the scrappy link party!
ReplyDeleteI haven't done any knitting for ages--love your hand warmer--very pretty!
ReplyDeleteNot much sewing in the last week but lots of buying of fabric on the MN Quilt Shop Hop. My husband and I are traveling the entire state visiting 72 shops and am posting about our adventures. And getting lots of ideas for future projects. Thanks for hosting. Your handwarmer looks great! I should try knitting. Karen
ReplyDeleteSo gorgeous.I don´t knitting!
ReplyDeleteThanks for hosting, Leanne. Hopefully you won't need those hand warmers too soon. We are a little on the cool/wet side here in west central Saskatchewan.
