Finished or Not Finished Friday. August 28

 First of all Happy Birthday to my mama in Heaven. Golly gee, I am missing her lately! 


Ok, most of you already know this! I FINALLY have some finishes!


First.. the Winter Mystery that Alycia sponsored is done! 



Back from the long arm quilter and ready to be trimmed and binding applied. 


Binding is done.

The backing and a peek at the quilting.



Secondly...I made bowl cozies for our son at his new home. He had one, now he and A. will have 4 total.    


While I was at it I made 2 for Mr Busy and me! 


They still need topstitching around the top, but the wrong color thread is in my machine at the moment. 



And 5 masks were made from this panel! There are 10 kid graphics and 8 for adults. 


  
Two for the great grandkids. 



And one each for their mommy, daddy and yaya (grandma)!  As I was readying these for a photo, I realized I forgot the nose pieces. I'll add them before they get mailed. 


The "not finished" is this baby quilt of just scraps. It needs a border. I’m thinking a stripe. Blue and orange maybe.  I’m still looking...but I’m open for something else if it speaks to me. 



And I had a tiny DrEAMi yesterday.(Drop Everything and Make It)  While looking for a particular pattern I ran across this elastic and piece of fabric to make a bookmark. A scrap of interfacing, a quick seam around 3 sides, insert the loop of wide elastic and topstitching gives you a bookmark that holds the book closed. 



inserted at your stopping place and the elastic is looped around the book .


Ok, now I am really done sharing. I'll link up with Alycia at Finished or Not Finished Friday. 


Stay Busy and Stay Happy and Healthy

  5. Hooray for finishes!! I love that mystery quilt. I wish I had made one because it seems to look rather vintage--y. I still have one of Alycia's mysteries from 2018 that is not quilted so until that one is finished no more mysteries for me.
    You know, I often think of making bowl cozies but never do. Christmas is coming up so maybe this will be the year they actually get made.
    I love bookmarks. I used to make and use a lot of them. They are good stocking stuffers. But now I don't know many people who read on anything other than a Kindle.
