Today I'm taking a friend to the airport, then dropping off some things at my daughter's for her rummage sale. Then we'll see what else might be on the day's agenda.
One more UFO quilt can be checked off the list.
This is the second of 2 Ohio Star quilts I made over the past couple of years using blocks made each month for Rainbow Scrap Challenge. The other version has the colors in the background (scrappy) and white stars. Both quilts are 50 x 60, so a good size for snuggling on the sofa.
The backing is a pretty bubblegum pink, and I used a pink/white stripe for binding.
I also did the binding on this little 5 x 7 strawberry mug rug. This is the same small strawberry pattern from the bed runner I made this summer. But without borders around it. Dare I admit that there is a similar pumpkin one that is partially done . . .
Mug rugs are back on my To Do list - probably because I spent some time reorganizing the small bin holding all the parts and pieces I had laying around for them. There were some scrappy parts, some mug rug flimsies, some already quilted but needing binding - just a hodge podge of parts. The bin is more organized, and I've sorted out some that are ready for binding. Those could be a perfect project to work on in the car next week when I ride along with my husband to Rapid City for the state seniors golf tournament.

Great finish! I love the pink backing with the striped binding. Your mug rug sure looks juicy and delicious. :)
Perfect timing to get a pumpkin bed runner or mug runner going! The Ohio star quilt is so pretty. Congrats on finishes for the week.
The Ohio Star turned out beautifully. RSC quilts are some of my most favorite. The strawberry mug rug is really cute too. Have fun playing with your bits and pieces. It's nice to empty out and finish up.
The quilt is a beauty! I adore the strawberry mug mat - it’s darling.
Such a pretty quilt!!
