OMG, I'm so busy working on so many projects my head should explode!
I'm finishing up a Quilt of Valor. It was a kit handed out by the guild and turns out it had only half the required fabric so I am trying to find some fabric to finish it out with that won't look dorky. I'm working on a sashiko piece with a few of my friends. It's going to be an asian art piece that will be auctioned off to help raise money to buy a building for the Heritage Quilt Museum. I'm working on a Jane Stickle (Dear Jane) quilt and run a local bee on it, which means I have to at least attempt to keep up. I just finished a quilt for my hubby's grandmother, the picture is posted under the Picture section entitled
French Braid if anyone is interested in looking at it. I'm hand appliquing a bunch of lamb blocks for my granddaughter, who is due to be born in mid-November, for her baby quilt. I'm also doing a
'Paint Chip Challenge' in my local guild and am working on a tablerunner for that.
I have been working on a UFO, several in fact. I'll have to take a picture of my neutrals quilt to show off. It's my baby and I thought it was done but then hubby decided we're getting a king sized bed and suddenly I needed to make the quilt bigger, much bigger. Dang it all! After a lot of thought and some input from a dear friend, I came up with borders that should look as if they were designed with the original quilt in mind and not slapped on for extra length. Of course, I can't just do something simple. I am appliquing circles; lots and lots of circles. I'm even stuffing them to give them a bit more dimension.
Hopefully I'll get something finished so I can post pictures soon.
