Umbrella is a top!

I finished stitching the last umbrella this morning while the kids decorated the tree. After lunch (yummy turkey enchilada soup) I decided to find the sewing room and see if the machine still works! The good news - it does!
I didn't have a 'rainy' fabric so I went with light blue and they might be sun parasols. We will see how they want to be quilted if they want rain drops or not.





This below is the template I have been using. I just drew it onto paper with a sharpie. I turn it over to get it for the umbrella handle turned the other direction. I also drew some with the under part and some without. I used 6 inch squares.


Linking up on Saturday with the RSC Challenge and Oh Scrap.

    So cute! Love the way the blue setting triangles finish it all off. Quilted raindrops sounds just perfect.

    just adorable. I like the light blue... sun or rain.
    quilted raindrops and sun rays... nature puts those together sometimes too.

    Your umbrellas are darling! I love how you're waiting for them to "tell you" whether or not they want quilted raindrops. Have fun with it~

    This is so incredibly cute! I love the colorful umbrellas! Or parasols, if that's how you end up thinking about them. What a great rainbow scrap project!
