My Teddy rug, RSC light blue sewing.

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.
