  1. I am on yesterday's blog post of yours--I have always love osnaburg fabric--but have never seen it in any colors!!!! My question is how does it work for transfering your designs on to the colors--can you see through it enough to do this???? and what is the color you are using in the picture of you new design you started??? Thanks for the help and for letting us know about the colors--I will be ordering some soon--Hugs, Di

  2. That's being very scrap conscious! Good idea. I would probably have just put them in the small scrap bag that I donate to a charity thrift store.

  4. Hi Peg,
    I would also like to know how you transferred you lovely stitchery pattern onto your fabric and what pen you used?? Inquiring minds want to know....;o)

  9. That reminds me of the wonderful mud rug coasters a friend showed me how to make years back. I had forgotten what a quick and easy project they are! And a great use of scraps!
