On my last trip to Southern Ontario and visits to quilt shops I picked up a pattern called "Caddy Pad" it is from Sisters' Common Thread. It is an iron tote and ironing pad all in one. It opens out into an ironing surface. The Heat-Resistant Lining comes with the pattern. I had a lot of fun making it and now have a neat way of carrying my iron when I go the a quilt bee or sewing meeting.
It is true quilters fabric with thread and needles on it,
and it says "A Passion for Patchwork".
I also tried my hand at making some new mug rugs. The pattern is from the Winter Issue of Quilter's World. They are called Cuppa Coasters.
I think they are nicer than the usual rectangular ones that are quite popular.
