A trisket, a tusket, I made Miss Rosie's Tuffet!

I finally found a reason to make one of Miss Rosie's Tuffet to fulfill the December Schnibble challenge!  I had totally given up on it when, on Christmas day, I decided to work on my Black, White, and Red All Over quilt.  It is my scrap quilt that I play with when I am tired of the math and exactness of regular quilt patterns.  It occurred to me that I could make a tuffet out of black, white, and red and incorporate it in the quilt.  The tuffet would feel right at home since fabric and mis-sized blocks from other Schnibbles are also included.

So, here is my Scnibble made in red and white so it will fit into the quilt.  It is the Double Nine Patch.

Here is the tuffet embedded into a larger section of the quilt.

And here are a few more blocks for the quilt.  Other than the Tuffet, everything is leftover fabric and blocks and scraps.  It is so fun putting them all together.  I have almost enough pieces now to make a double bed sized quilt.

Miss Rosie's Tuffets

I had been debating whether to make the Tuffets this month.  I am working on a number of things and don't care for pin cushions.  The biggest plus in the positive column for making the Tuffets was that I thought I could sew a hanger and a tassel on them and call them Christmas Tree Ornaments.  They would make wonderful presents for my tutors.

Well, my quandray was solved with a "snow day" and my work closing for the day.  So with an extra 10 hours today (work time, lunch, and travel time) I figure I can make a few tuffet Christmas Tree Ornaments as presents. LOL  Hmmm...where is that pattern?
