I know some of you are waiting for it.
Sewing my scraps together to make a rug for a special gift.
All 45 strips are sewn to the batting. I really only needed to make 42. They measure about 45” long. This took a long time.
Now to join them together. This wasn’t as bad as I thought.
I did have to be careful it didn’t curve and distort. Sew one on going up, the next going down. I did them in sets of 6 then joined these together. It was easier to handle as it had some weight.
Now to mark, stitch and cut the shape.
This is getting exciting.
I had to make a chenille piece. My cutter didn’t want to cut so I reverted back to using scissors.
Here it is all sewn up.
And the chenille is all roughed up.
I absolutely love it. Thank you Pauline Rogers from Pauline’s Quilters World for this wonderful pattern. Watch her on YouTube. I will be making it again.
Linking up with Scrap Happy Saturday , RSC and so scrappy. This month the colour was light blue or green.

What a cute teddy! It turned out fantastic!
That is so gorgeous. It looks great in the blues and the chenille effect with the muzzle and paws is perfect. Lovely work.
