They squares are a good size to make coasters out of...but how many coasters do I really need. I think we have 5 different sets already. Maybe an applique for a dish towel? Oooh or pot holders!

Yard sale booty!
Last Saturday was National Yard Sale Day. Since my mom had the two big kids, I took the little guy out and we hit a few sales. I found this adorable vintage fabric. It's cut into two pieces, but there's about 3/4 yard total. It's so cute that I don't want to do anything with it for fear that I'll think of a better project. Any ideas or suggestions?

Use the fabric to applique to a solid color cotton fabric to make into a shopping tote. Go to Burda.com and you will find a free pattern for a Charlie Bag. Follow the easy directions, just add the pieces of fabric you found as applique to decorate. The bags are great for food shopping (or all shopping), replaces plastic/paper bags. I even made them for Christmas gifts last year.
Hope htis helps
