Patriotic Quilt Block Potholder

One of my very popular classes this year has been this potholder towel project.  This is not a new idea as it has been on Pinterest for quite a few years.

Click on this link and download it into your Mysewnet Cloud.  Be sure you are signed in.

The first step is to turn on your machine.  Go to your Mysewnet cloud and open it up.  I am using the list format so you can read it clearly.

Then open up your project from the screen.

When you click on it, it opens up into the tutorial side of the machine.  How cool is that?


And yes, directions are written by me! The design I used is in the Quilt category of the icon and I added a star from the Super Designs in the Premier +2 software.


Look at this, it opens up right into your embroidery field on the machine!

Here is one of the photos I added to the directions.

If you click on the photo included, it enlarges so you can get a better view of it.  That is pretty exciting!


Here is my original design, hanging on the drawer next to my stove.


And of course I have a few examples to share.  Thanks to Janet F. for her project samples.

                               


Towels were purchased at the local Walmart, but I am sure you can find some in your area.


Please leave a comment if you give this project a try.  Feel free to share a picture of your project below as well.

Enjoy!

Say Hello to August!

As the summer comes to an end and school starts up again, it should feel like fall, but not here in Florida!  My next workshop is reminiscent of our memories of summer with trips to the beach. The layouts will feature the Country Woods paper pack along with the Seaside Wishes stamp set and dies.   I will mix in the Cape Cod scrapbooking stamp set from Close to My Heart because it matches so well with the theme. Sun and fun activities are the themes of the August layouts, and the grandchildren had a great time at both St. Augustine and Clearwater beaches. Seaside Wishes Layout 1 Seaside Wishes Layout 2 Seaside Wishes Layout 3 Supplies for the class include the following: 1633393 Country Woods Designer Series Paper 163498 Seaside Wishes Bundle 146985 Petal Pink cardstock or CTMH Peach cardstock- 3 sheets 122924 Pool Party cardstock or CTMH Glacier Cardstock Vanilla or cream cardstock for shells etc.  Espresso or Mocha cardstock for photo mats and accents 2 each ...

Day 12 of Christmas Stitching

Day 12 - A quick and easy gift idea is this napkin holder made from an 'in the hoop' quilt block. This is the Diva class for December and the class for Saturday has been changed to December 22nd.  So there is still time to sign up and finish it before Christmas. This napkin holder starts as a basic 8" block found in the Quilt selection of my icon.  I then added the Star #4 design from the Holiday selection of the machine.  I rotated it and centered it within the block. I love all of the selections in the Holiday category of the icon. You have already seen a number of them stitched up in previous posts these twelve days. I had a small class this morning but both of them finished their project and I even had time to take a picture. Jennifer G used a new gold metallic fabric as the  center design along with the flower B94 on the Epic. This size fits a package of store bought napkins perfectly. Ondrea D design is a combination of Basic Grey fa...

Welcome to mySewnet!

Congratulations on you new machine!  Even if you have owned it for a few years (like me) you have the internal software of a new machine!  The Epic 2 is new to the market but the Epic, Pfaff Creative icon and Viking Designer Embrillance 80 all have been updated in the last few weeks! The Pfaff update was released on April 6, 2020 while the Viking updates were at the end of February. The updates included: a. The ability to read .evp3- format of the mySewnet Library designs.  (This is huge and I am SEW excited!) b.  Support for the Pfaff Design Placement in the Sew Notice app.  Did you watch the FB live event? c.  Support for the NEW creative grand quilter's 260mm x 260mm hoop. If you need help with the update, please reach out to your dealer or you can leave a comment below and I will help you out. Today's topic will be how to get connected to mySewnet.  Once you are connected you will discover the excitement and ease of embroidery wi...
