Basic Skills Necessary:

  • You should already know how to use a sewing machine and some of the fancier stitches. Preferable, you would also have knowledge of fusible applique and cutting out fabrics using rotary cutting tools. If not, you can still learn by referring to quilting books that teach these methods.
  • From the different applique techniques, I like this one the best; and it is the easiest to do.

Pattern Description:

Quilts add color to any space they occupy; sometimes, they are meant to just add color and warmth to a particular place in our homes. At other times, they are a warm, cozy covering as we sleep.

So, I thought why not add a splash of color to our computer station. I like the idea of giving this mechanical mouse a cozy quilt to sit on as we do our work There we can enjoy this mini quilt as we dream up new ideas or find more projects to add to our quilting list.

If you are here; you love your sewing machine. Perhaps, this is the mini quilt you'll want to have next to your computer for your mouse.

Several years ago I came up with this idea, and since Craftsy has such a great place for us to share our patterns, I am offering them now as PDF patterns.

This PDF pattern has colored illustrations, clear instructions, and full-size templates for the applique pieces that have already been reversed for the fusible applique process. Use my fabric choices as your guide and have fun with this project.

I learned to sew in the seventh grade and added quilting about 11 years ago. I love to challenge myself to learn new techniques and always allow the project to dictate how it will turn out. I hardly ever follow a pattern exactly and love that about quilting.

I believe everyone needs an activity to have that time to get away from the rules and expectations of others to just be themselves. For ...
