I really have way too many things started but right now lying on bed, across ironing board, on sewing table plus hanging on display wall are the following:
(1) Charity pinwheel (turning out okay in yellows-purples, will be given to Project Linus coordinator who will add their label);
(2) Charity HST quilt (this is a so-so quilt in brown scrappy);
(3) Charity bear quilt with pinwheels in the corners and panel in center. (I am liking this one in maroon-brown-pink and of course yellow for honey jug).
All of the above cost only the amount of the batting and my time since the fabrics were given to a friend of mine and we are making quilts on top of quilts. (various sizes 40x40 to 40x60) There probably are five huge tubs of various types of fabrics—all in full yardages. Most will be enveloped and machine quilted. We are so blessed to get this woman’s stash. She just does not want to sew any more. I brought home 36 yards, and washed/ironed it last week.
Then another of my sewing groups has been donated seven Winnie The Pooh panels which I am also enveloping and machine quilting into approx, 40x45 quilts. Those will go to our county’s battered women’s center this fall. I have one completely done and the other six cut and ready to begin. They will be labeled with our group’s name, year, and county name.
On a personal note, I am finishing the handwork on granddaughter’s wall hanging (Photo-Thimbleberry fabrics in greens and tans). For this wall hanging, similar to large Ohio Stars, we are tacking her recital pins and other special things. For her little 3-year old brother, a box sits nearby with all kinds of bug pieces for a Jar Quilt. That little guy can follow an ant a half block!
Of course, my own One-Block-Wonder UFO (photo) is still rolled up in corner after my showing it at Guild.
