Crazy Quilt Teddy Bear

Well, I finally decided what to sew my 2 stitched pieces that I shared yesterday into.  Hmmmm.....should I spill the beans?  or wait?  I think I'll tease ya'll and wait!  Both are sewn so I just have to do the hand finishing.  If all goes well, I'll post photos tomorrow.  You'll definitely want to see these so do stop back!

A friend of mine asked me for one of my Crazy Quilt Teddy Bears in green so I started stitching on it this morning:

I would have been further along on this but my little baby kitty Cotton decided that he wanted to stitch too.  I told him that he was too young to play scissors and needles!  LOL!!!  I put it down to play with him and some of his toys.

While digging around in my stash for the something the other day, I found a few packages of vintage satin blanket seam binding:

I opened the satin binding up and ironed it flat.  Vintage anything is such high quality compared to most of what's available now.  I'm going to use it to make a few yo-yo's.  There's miles yardage here so I'll either make a lot of yo-yo's or I'll save some for future crazy quilt projects!
