Ice Creams Cones & Polka Dots!

A few weeks ago I had made some quilted, reversible ice cream-themed placemats to put into an Ice Cream-Themed gift basket I had donated to a good friend's husband's benefit.

Well, I had just enough fabric leftover make 2 more placemats.  This time I used a pink trim rather than brown and ivory.

Here they are...

Ice Cream is the Theme!

A very close friend's husband was recently in ICU for 4 weeks struggling for his life.  The family is having a benefit to help raise money for them and all the doctor bills that have accumulated.  The benefit is going to take place on July 17, 2010.  I was asked if I could make a few things to donate to the raffles and silent auction.  So here's one gift basket finished...an Ice Cream themed gift basket!

I made a couple of quilted, reversible placemats with some awesome ice cream cone fabric and polka dot fabric that I purchased on eBay.  Then found the rest of the items in local stores and shops.

Included in this ice cream themed gift basket are:

2 sundae dishes

2 ice cream bowls

ice cream scoop and sundae spoons

2 ice cream cone bubbles

ice cream cone sidewalk chalk

ice cream themed erasers

Smuckers Hot Fudge Topping

a box of cake cone cups

and of cours the 2 placemats that I made.
