Spring is here in Virginia, though it's still quite chilly outside with a dash of rainy gloom. But the flowers love it! It seems that a lot of fabrics focus on flower designs and this older collection from Windham, Mimosa, doesn't disappoint! I made some paper pieced coffee cups several years ago, thinking I would put them into (yet another!) quilt. I DON'T need another quilt, believe me! Paper Pieced Coffee Cups : 7" (2015) Here are two that I quilted yesterday and are going to live with my in-laws in New York. They insisted on being photographed next to my floral table runner. They wanted to play with the flowers! Two Coffee Cups heading to New York I think I will make the others into these easy mug rugs. I like to keep little gifts like these on hand for those unexpected times I want to arrive at someone's home with a "thank you." I made this set of 4 green cups for my niece. I think I like the straight line quilting better. Four matching Coffee Cups
