Log Cabin Candle Mat

I made this log cabin candle mat this morning for one of my aunts who just had surgery. It measures 9 x 9 inches. And the best part is that it is made from using scraps. I didn’t have to buy anything. Yeah. Now I want to make some for myself.

I received this fabric postcard the other day from a swap partner named Dorothy. Isn’t it adorable. I love it.

Here are a few pictures of Andrew that I took yesterday. He is getting so big and fast. I put this bouncer together yesterday. We got it as a baby shower gift from some o the ladies at church. He seemed to like it.

    Don’t you just love b/w and sepia photos - especially with all the competing bright colors of baby and kid gear - sometimes it lets you just focus on the child and their beautiful faces!!!
    Just adorable!

    Holly, what a wonderful idea…a candle mat. I would never have thought of that, amazing how many ideas people come up with for quilting. I received the fat quarter package, I love everything. Thanks again.
