    Default What's currently on your design wall?

    Hi,

    Here's what's on mine...it's called the "So Many Scraps" quilt. I got the pattern when I visited Tennessee several years ago and have worked on it on and off since. It's getting closer! I put it on the design wall last night to make sure I have enough blocks and triangles...and I do! So now I'm taking them down a few at a time to trim then will put them back up and play around with color and such before sewing them together. I'm really looking forward to getting it done! The original quilt was done with the dark green small triangles and muslin. I opted for dark blue and yellow. Please ignore the ripple...I have something plugged in there under the design wall. The lighting was bad...the yellow is really very pale...

    I'm doing a wall hanging size attic windows. The "windows" show beach and rocks, water and sky. The top is together except for the border (woodgrain). I'm going to turn it into a roman shade with the "warm window" insulated backing. It's a gift for my sister who had to move away from the coast to live closer to medical care for her husband. The shade will cover a very cold window that looks out into her carport.

    Love it, and your brave with all those bias cuts. I'm not that brave I usually cringe at on point settings, they give me fits!

    I finally have a quilt ready to sandwich tonight. My 2nd for this year. Been doing home repairs last three weekends. Dining table out of commission.
