Anyone sewing today? (Sunday 2/13)
 

Hi friends! What are you all working on today? I finished up the quilting for a fun star quilt and cut batting for 4 small kids quilts that I'll get started on this week. I organized my project bags and picked out what UFO I'm working on next! :) I have a scrap quilt of oranges and turquoise that is calling my name.

Maybe my biggest weekend accomplishment is that I vacuumed the sewing area which picked up all the little triangle dog ear trimmings that had taken over the floor! :rolleyes:

I'm also hoping to fuse a few more applique blocks so I can do some handwork while watching TV.

Anyone doing handwork while watching the game?

Yup! I'll be hand quilting a small wallhanging.

I started out this morning finishing up a scrappy floppy, then put it on the frame for quilting, and just took it off the frame and getting ready to bind it.

I also made a pan of baked mac & cheese, and have a cheesecake in the oven right now.

As to the game, haven't had any interest in that for years.

I got in some time at the sewing machine.😁 Working on some jelly roll rugs. Made my day.

I've been quilting my Feb. UFO. I hope to get the rest of the quilting finished tomorrow or Tues. Then back to my WIPs so they don't become UFOs LOL.

I made three of the blocks for the Boom swap.

That was my plan, but I ended up taking a nap instead. But the day isn't over. I've been working on going through the stuff in my sewing room - the boxes and bins of fabric to see what I have and put it in some kind of order. That in itself is fun :)

I'm making a Donna Jordan quilt. Forgot the name of it but I'm using batiks. I just finished the BYH mystery and wanted something easy and mindless.
The only thing is I don't like the way batik fabric smells!

Yes. I worked on a tee shirt quilt for my granddaughter for graduation.

anyone quilting today?
 

Yep. Still working a quilt these three years now. I do a little bit each day. I do only about 20 minutes max. That's why sometimes it takes a long time to finish a project. Oh by the way Happy Valentine Day to everyone.

I finished a quilt top today, pattern Four Sisters. Then I picked up stuff that was laying around the sewing room. I thought about hand binding during the game but I have a cat on my lap!

I did a couple of loads of laundry. Cut a few more pieces I need to finish Clue 7 of the mystery, after that I stitched one block...But put in a solid red piece in the center of the nine patch instead of a butterfly. Trying to decide if I want to rip or to do all the rest like the one with the mistake. Might be interesting.

I got back to my Free Motion Mastery in a Month. I've been really good but took a couple days off. I also made a basket liner for my laundry basket which came out less than great. Yesterday I put together the quilt top I started in a class in August. I want to used it for a practice piece for the Free Motion Mastery class.

Happy Valentines day one and all! Yesterday, 2/13, I began cutting out a baby quilt. I was careful to measure twice and cut once.

I did sew for a few hours yesterday and assembled 48 blocks from a Layer Cake that I have had for years (and can’t figure out for the life of me why I bought 2 of them)…they are not my colors. I am making up Amy Smart’s free Hour Glass pattern and will donate the quilt.

I worked on a small knitting project during the game … I am just learning to knit.

what size are you making? How many shirts? I bought some tshirt stabilizer and it was 60x72.

I took the day to work on a counted cross stitch pattern my son sent me for Christmas so I could be in the living room and watch tv with my husband.

I spent the day taking apart my Rhododendron Trail because I had 2 blocks that I felt were too similar next to each other. Now it is back together with the first border back on. You would think I would have noticed that before the rows were sewn together!

Sounds like you all had a great Sunday! I finished two applique blocks (with buttonhole stitch) while I was watching a history show in the evening.

I love all your projects!

Enjoy your week everyone!

Well it is now the 15th and I can reveal what I was working on to keep away from a game that I have no interest in. I cut out 2 blocks. I completed one and have the other one laid out. Both are for QAL's that I am doing. I have 6 blocks completed plus all the connector blocks (12 of them) for one of them and 8 blocks done on the other quilt top. I hope to get the 9th block done on this one today. This was enough to keep me busy during what is called the Super Game???? I just wanted to know what happened to the Olympics?
Neither of these QAL's are stressful and can be completed on my own time. So this makes it fun.
