Quilted Mantel Scarf-Who Knew?
Mantel Scarf.jpg
Boy, when I think of the things I do not know; it's staggering. The first time I ever spyed a "mantel scarf" was the other day. Not the pretty one above, but one in general. The reason it caught my eye is because we are getting together a new living dwelling and we have a thrifted piece of furniture (not even sure what to call the thing); it has two shelves, a set of drawers, and beneath the drawers is an enclosed cabinet. Anywho, from Pinterest I saw some shelves that had the edges decorated and thought they were so pretty. Then, while here at the local library I found a book, "Quilts For Mantels & More". By jove I decided quilted mantel covers would be another way to practice my quilting and display my wares at home (seems everything else in my head is going to be given away and I shall never see them again, LOL).
Anywho, so I'm ISO a lovely pattern to do my mantel quilts and saw the one above. Isn't it darling? I did find a pattern and it is not overly expensive ($3.29). Being the "thrifty" person I am and after all the reading I have been doing over the last three weeks about quilting even my neophyte eye tells me that I should not need to purchase a pattern to accomplish this. Or, am I off base, yaw'll?
