Sewing Weekend
5 Attachment(s)
I have just had a lovely 4 day weekend at our fishing shack and got lots of sewing done as the weather was rather dismal outside.
Most of my sewing at the lakes involves using scrap fabrics so Friday morning I turned out tubs of scraps onto the bed in my sewing room ready for the sewing to start. All of these quilts are foundation pieced. Friday I worked on adding more rows to this scrap quilt. (Pic 2) Saturday I started this little I Spy quilt and I am really pleased with the way it is turning out. (Pic 3 and 4) I now need to source some more I Spy pictures so I can add to this quilt. Sunday and Monday morning I did a heap more log cabin blocks for this scrappy quilt. (Pic 5) As you can see these projects are 'works in progress' and apart from the I Spy quilt which I brought home to finish, the others stay at the shack and will be worked on next trip (late July). I would dearly love to have a little scrappy quilt show next March at our shack - I have dreamed how I would set it up on the verandah :) just have to convince DH that it will work out just the way I see it in my dream. |
Those are great. I love scrappy quilts
|
How fun! Great projects!
|
Looks like you had a busy 4 days............ your quilts are very nice.
|
You're a quilter after my own heart! Love your scrap quilts!!
|
Really great quilts....
|
Love these quilts. Scrappy is fun.
|
Wow! Every one of the quilts is wonderful. I especially like the way you put the I Spy quilt together.
|
Great quilts, love the pattern for the I spy.
|
nicely done
|
very nice ........
|
You did a great job on your quilts.
|
These are absolutely adorable.....love them all!!!!!
|
I like the I spy quilt the best, but they all are great. I don't remember ever seeing an I spy quilt before. Is it pretty easy? You sure kept your sewing machine humming every day, good luck to you, and your DH. It is always great to have a back up plan when you are on vacation, just in case it rains.
|
I love scrappy quilts! You really accomplished a lot in your time at the cabin. It must have been a good feeling to have when you left after getting so much done (although I often think I should have accomplished more :-)
|
Great job on all!
|
Holy Smokes....you have been really busy. Very nice work. Thank you for sharing.
|
How big are your I-Spy blocks? I may have some that I could send to you - RAOK - Random Act of Kindness.

I love all your quilts!! The I Spy really got my admiration. Such a unique(to me) design and very well done!
|
I love your quilts
|
Scrappy quilts are the most fun, luv your pic's
|
You certainly were productive!
|
Very cool!
|
I like them all and I'm particularly impressed with the red & white one hanging on the wall. And of course I envy you your fishing cabin and the four days of rainy weather up in the woods.

I love your idea of a scrappy quilt show at your shack. You have some wonderful quilts to show off!
|
What lovely quilts! My husband is also an angler. I love the idea of you both doing your hobbies at the same time and in the same place.
|
A very productive weekend!

All your scrappies are fantastic! If you can convince DH I would look forward to seeing pictures of your scrappy quilt show!

Lovely I Spy pattern - did you make it up yourself? Will there be sashing between each block? What color? Will you show another picture when it's done?
