I had a busy sewing weekend. On Saturday I made some baby bibs for a friend, and on Sunday I finished another hummingbird wallhanging, and a log cabin quilt for a friend who will be graduating soon. Thanks for looking

Do you ever sleep? I wish I could be as prolific as you and the work is beautiful.

shellyp 09-22-2008 12:31 PM

Don't forget to oil your machine! I'm sure it could use it after that kind of workout.

Great stuff you done. I just love your hummingbirds.

love them all! The hummingbird is wonderful!

DA Mayer 09-22-2008 04:37 PM

Did you use a pattern for the bibs? I am trying to make several because I have several baby gifts to give. What fabric etc did you use? Thanks for the info. I love the blue and yellow also. You are speedy.

That hummingbird is incredible. How did you do it? My mother LOVES hummingbirds... I may "steal" this idea if I can figure out the technique. :P

Two days and the whole night and I still wouldn't have the stuff cut out, forget sewing anything. You're doin' great stuff.

Love the Log Cabin!!

Marcia 09-22-2008 07:00 PM

girl, you are smoking hot!! I cannot believe how much you got done in a weekend!! I LOVE blue and yellow (my bedroom is blue and yellow) and I love your log cabin quilt. The bibs are just too cute-what a great gift. The wallhanging is gorgeous-I especially like the fabric you used for the wings-looks like feathers-really cool! Thanks for sharing.

gcathie 09-23-2008 04:48 AM

Oh Oh....now that log cabin quilt is on my list! It's beautiful :lol: :lol:

GailG 09-28-2008 04:59 AM

Way to go, CG101. That graduation quilt is really stunning. How many blocks did you make, and what size is the quilt? You must have been stitching ALL weekend. Do you ever stop to eat and sleep? :mrgreen:

sandpat 09-28-2008 05:39 AM

Hmmmm, your weekend looks like it was MUCH more productive than mine. Great work!

Bevanger 09-28-2008 06:04 AM

mfre42day 09-28-2008 06:13 PM

Shelly P...What kind of cat is that in your avatar? Is it one of the hairless ones? I don't know why but it cuaght my eye...

Harmony 09-28-2008 07:35 PM

They're all gorgeous! Wish my weekends were that productive! I spent this whole weekend on my computer, switching for a job I'm doing to this board to a new computer game--OK, mostly the computer game! Your weekend was MUCH more productive. Nice job!

Jim's Gem 09-28-2008 07:37 PM

Wow, they are all great!! You had a very productive weekend!!
I got in a couple hours yesterday myself until my shoulder said "you will stop now". Had much more I wanted to get done.

Janstar 09-28-2008 07:45 PM

Nice log cabin! Humming bird is neat and the bibs are so cute. Good job. Is your sewing machine smoking?

catchergirl01 09-29-2008 02:40 PM

Thanks to everyone for their kind comments. To answer some of the questions...

The bibs were not from a pattern, but instead I just traced around a bib, they already had, and used that as my pattern. The backs are terrycloth, and the fronts and binding are flannel. They also have a snap on the neck (as requested).

The hummingbird is from a stained glass pattern, just google stained glass hummingbird pattern, and you can order one. The wings are corderoy pants, and it just happened to work out that they looked like wings.

The top of blue and yellow log cabin was already completed before this weekend, so I all I had to do was sandwich and quilt it. I used 64 log cabin blocks (8x8).

Thanks again,
Linda

GailG 09-29-2008 04:26 PM

Thank you, Catcher g., You are so thorough. And clever. Love the corduroy idea.

gcathie 09-29-2008 07:42 PM

So stunning the blues and yellows always seem to look good together......an the Humming bird....sweet!

Diane007 10-16-2012 03:03 PM

rusty quilter 10-17-2012 03:37 PM

Gee, I spent most of my weekend sleeping ;-( Now I am thinking I better get myself sewing because these look great!

jennygrit 10-18-2012 09:07 AM

Boy if I could get that done in a month of week-ends I would be happy. Love the log cabin, my favorite colors. And hummingbirds are my favorite. The bibs are sooo cute.

LisaGibbs 10-18-2012 12:08 PM

Your log cabin is out of some of my favorite colors together and you have made such a spectacular example of why. Amazing job.
