I had selected Bakers Dozen for the next one. I still need to get the binding on my Small World, and quilt Dalilah.

Not even close!! Frustrated cuz I want to work on it but too busy with move stuff. I was hoping I could get the birds done before the move, at least. Still hoping... Went to LQS today to say goodbye and looked at Kaffe fabric for Bring Me Flowers pattern but didn't care for them so I'm still on the hunt for fabrics for that pattern...may do 1930's..not sure......still undecided on LTG colorway, too.

Right Macy, forgot about Bakers Dozen. That one is in a bag, waiting for a few other projects to be finished.

LOL Teen, you're creating UFO's this way. Bring me Flowers is a lovely pattern. I won't purchase it any time soon as I really need to finish what I started first :)
You could do a LTG in Christmas fabrics. I've seen a few and I really love them.

Back to the Molly Maiden Duties :(

Teen tell me. Is Bring me Flowers lots of curved piecing? It certainly looks like it!
I really consider doing that one but I need to know before ordering the booklet. Can it be appliqued?

Teen 01-04-2019 02:56 PM

Yes, curved piecing.....the blocks in between floral blocks mostly, if I recall, but many of the floral's are curved piecing. I packed the book so I can't remember. She is repeating one block from GTSB and it was curved piecing. I ended up doing applique but I think you pieced your block. I do remember that you make two of each floral block pattern.

I'll wait till you've unpacked your book. I did applique the GTSB block too :)

I've been working on the applique flowers and leaves for the GTSB border all weekend and I still need more flowers and leaves........I'm taking a break now, the grands will be here in half an hour :)

That's great Anael. Can't wait to see what your working on. Go enjoy your sweet grands and make some memories.

Anael 01-06-2019 08:21 AM

I need about 10 more flowers and even more leaves. When I was young I didn't go to Kindergarten, now I'm catching up :D :D :D Soon I'm a pro in tracing and glueing hahahaha

Lol.....every time I thought I made enough, I was wrong and had to make more, too. Super excited to see the finished quilt.

Tonight, I might have a bit of time to work on HB. I packed my sewing machine but I have appliques to work on still...and I can cut fabric for the many border designs in this thing. Then, when moved, I can whip out the machine and go for it. I will likely be making a trip to Georgia to help sister at home following her cancer surgery. My siblings are all staggering our trips so she'll be covered. She's having surgery the week I move but other sisters will be there for her....then when released from hospital, I'll be there. It will be a difficult recovery for her. So, lots on my mind and heavy on my heart right now. A bit of sewing will help.
