I'll do the dishes!

pattern source  Sew Precise software
"I'll do the dishes",  said noone excitedly ever.... til now!
Maybe I should say, "I'll make the dishes"  I actually made some real dishes when I went through my ceramics/pottery phase way back in the day. Anyway...
I had fun choosing scraps to make into this stack of 8 dessert dishes. If only I had a set of dishes like these!
Tennis rackets, stars, paisley, sweet 1950's checks.

I have a great mix of fabrics because my friends give me their throwaway scraps, always asking the question,
"are these too small" and the answer is usually
"uh, NO!"

Looking at these I think a number of them were actually from my own projects except for the tennis rackets.



Would you like some cream in your drink?
I printed this little fella a bit small but valiantly pieced it anyway. I didn't do all the piecing printed on, I angled off the edges more, and appliqued the handle with the thread on the machine already. I might have to go back in the end and amend that.
Only a few baby blue pieces this month but here they are together.
