Well, not much 'Christmas in July' sewing has happened since this post. However, some already prepped dog and cat mug rugs have been quilted, that's all.
I got sucked into decluttering accumulated fabrics and other crafts.
Some of the jeans will be donated and some are cut into useable pieces. I'm not going to use the most worn areas, and I see there are some spots too that won't be used. I will get to that eventually.
My goodness, jeans take up a lot of space!
Flannel shirts from a DF are also cut into pieces
The small heap with quilting cotton is sorted and some small pieces cut into squares.
(I forgot to take a photo before I put it away)
I rediscovered this beautiful bullfinch Christmas fabric. Originally Christmas kitchen curtains (cotton). Too beautiful to be donated, right?
I'm going to make some placemats and two table runners.
It looks like there is a color difference, actually it's shades.
I'm also doing 'secret sewing' that can't be revealed until it's delivered.
We discovered this guy in the garden the other day
If not mistaken, this caterpillar (about 4.7 inches / 12 cm) is the Death's Head Hawkmoth.
It's an impressive moth and we don't see them often. We saw one closeup some years ago - here.
Take a look at this YouTube video if you would like to see them hatch. An amazing process.
