Coffee Time!


Coffee time!

 I designed this small table runner / mini quilt using two of the great fabrics from Clothworks Have a Latte line.    I ordered three of the prints and fell in love with the swirls so I made some giant coffee mugs!  (The coffee bean fabric is on the back of the mini.)


I put together a quick pattern for the Coffee Time table runner - check out my Elm Street Quilts blog for the details.

 I loved this fabric so much that I put together a little bag for my briefcase to keep things all corralled.

There are two zippered pockets inside, one covered and one using a clear plastic.

I will be putting this bag to good use!
The full schedule for all the blog hop can be found at Joan's blog.  Thanks to Joan for being a terrific cheerleader along the way and for Samm for all of her continual support.

 Now grab your cup of favorite morning caffeine and join me to tour the other lovely ladies on the hop - 
     From This to That

    Your table runner is so pretty. And I like your bag, it was clever of you to make one pocket clear.

    The quilt-y additions to your mugs are just so cute. I love this color collection in this line. The blacks and taupe's are just divine. What a lovely addition to your table! Your bag is just as cute as it can be too, I need one of those to keep receipts in. Great idea!

    I love your projects! Thanks for the runner pattern, too. I have just the fabric I'm going to use to make this, and I know who is going to receive it. Perfect timing! :-) Your bag is such a good idea and I think I need to make something similar. :-)
