T-shirt quilting and guitar wall hanger cover

Good grief my evenings fly by so fast. It doesn't seem like I can get much done when I get home from work before it is time to hit the hay! I spent a bit of time in the kitchen then headed to the studio. I now have the first t-shirt almost all quilted. I ran out of bobbin thread and called it a night.
I received a text invite to a 4th of July party! How fun is that? I have needed to make the host of the party some covers for his guitar wall hangers.
I don't know what brand of hangers he has, but the issue is the hangers interact with the finish on the guitar and the guitar finish peels off. I had made a bunch of hanger covers for my nephew and now this fellow who helps out with the band wants some. I didn't have any fur fabric like I used before, but I found some nice thick waffle weave sweatshirt weight fabric in my stash. I had the dimensions for the one's I made my nephew
so I whipped up one. I mailed this one to the fellow this morning and hopefully he gets it quickly so I can make a few more for him and take them to the party with me. The one I sent him is slightly different from this one; the spaces where the forks of the hanger go are thinner and the space between the forks is a bit wider.  I forgot to take a picture of the revised cover.

  1. The hanger covers will be greatly appreciated. I never knew they were necessary. Good for you, Patty.

  2. That's cool that you can make the covers but you would think that the people who make the hangers would have figured out there was a problem with them!

  3. In the summer with it being light so much later it seems like bedtime comes so much quicker (11:30 p.m. for me). I am usually out pulling weeds around 7:30 or 8 p.m. and it is still light after that. Not complaining because we love or daylight for gardening.
