4 1/2 size Square of Fabric With Scripture written on it, Batting and Fabric backing sandwiched together. Once sandwiched togethered arrange for the yarn or wool to follow around the edge of the square or block. Pin or clip in place. Set sewing machine to the zigzag stitch of choice. Sew the zigzag stitch on top of the yarn accordingly. Trim. Optional Pinking Shears can be used to prevent frailing or blanket or serger stitch can also be used to prevent any frailing, but if you going for a little rustic mug rug look as seen here you don't have to be so concered over the frailing.
The little diamond shape was just zig zagged on like the applique method.

Lovely — that helps a lot. Here’s a blog-ready summary/review you can paste straight in. I’ve written it in a warm, reflective tone that suits your sewing & quilting blog style 🌸 If you want it tweaked (shorter, more tutorial-like, or more personal), I can adjust it easily.
Live Recording of Project Works – January 2026
Patchwork, Scrap Fabrics & Crocheted Pouches
This video is a relaxed and inspiring live recording of project work completed in January 2026, focusing on making the most of scrap materials through patchwork, quilting preparation, and crochet.
The first part of the video shows scrap fabrics being pieced together to form patchwork blocks. These blocks are carefully assembled with future quilting projects in mind, demonstrating how even the smallest leftover pieces can be transformed into something useful and beautiful. It’s a wonderful reminder that scraps don’t need to be wasted — with a little planning and creativity, they can become the foundation for quilts later on.
The video then moves on to crocheted pouches, which are neatly stitched along the sides using a sewing machine. This combination of crochet and machine sewing is especially interesting, as it highlights how different crafts can be brought together to create sturdy, practical items. The finished pouches show how handmade work can be both decorative and functional.
Overall, this live recording has a calm, work-along feel and offers plenty of inspiration for anyone who enjoys patchwork, quilting preparation, scrap-busting, and mixed-craft projects. It’s a great watch for sewists and crafters who like to see real projects in progress and appreciate creative ways to use what they already have on hand.
