Today kicks off the Heart of Colorado Shop Hop. Seven shops in southern Colorado are participating with the theme "Games People Play." Each shop will have a unique block and setting, free demos, games and prizes. Let's hit the road!
My friend, Mary, has a cabin in the Sangre de Cristos mountains of southern Colorado and she invited me to a mini-quilt retreat next week. So to say "thank you," I made her a hostess gift:
It's a sewing machine cover! I got the design from "
ihavetosay's" June Sew-along. You can make one, too --Randi will post the tutorial on Monday, June 25. I couldn't wait, so I figured it out from the photos. I think it will be easier with the tute!
I got the "Keep Calm and get the Seam Ripper" from Pinterest. I tracked it back to Lisa at
Stuff Mummy Makes. She posted the sign in many colors, and you can click on it to get one of your own.
Of course, I had to add the "MyAuntMarthaMadeIt" label, which I bought from
gutentags on etsy.
Hope she likes it!

ReplyDeleteOh my goodness, that cover is so adorably cute!!! I think I will be making one too (minus the seam ripper saying since I don't have an embroidery machine). Thank you for sharing! She will love that gift. Happy shop hoppin'!
