Just 2

 This is just 2 of the projects I have been working on today.
I told my DD Jennie I needed a tall stool to use at my cutting table. The next thing I know she left me a black stool with old beat up fabric on the seat. Today was the day. I gave it some spray paint and some new padding and fabric more to my liking.
It even spins around. Now I don't have to stand so much at the cutting table. I love something made from junk that was going to be trashed! This stool has a new life with me!

My DD Jennie seems to think I need jobs. She talked to a young lady that works in a soda / lunch stand in a Variety store in a small town where she delivers for Fed Ex. She wanted a retro looking apron to wear while working At the soda fountain. This is my attempt . It's lined with the pink fabric. 
It's been a busy day. I have got a lot of things done around here.
Time for some dinner and put my feet up!
Stay happy and quilt!

My last projects

 This is my Quilt Shop Hop  bag. The quilt shops all over the US are participating in the national shop hop .
This is the  is my shopping bag. It holds everything I need. credit cards , check book, keys, and there is a pocket for my Nebraska passport for the Nebraska Passport Travel Program. I am ready for the Summer traveling. If only I had  $$$ for gas!

I made about 10 of these for the 4th of July. Mug rugs or what ever you like. They are a little larger so you can put your cup or glass and a snack on it.
