Yesterday proved to be a winner...got a lot of quilting done on one of the UFO's..who knows maybe i'll get the rest of the detail work done today....can't believe i'm finally making some headway into some of my projects. Trying to restore a house out of state and get it ready to move into while packing up this one. Trying to sew in the middle of all this mess has been just another reason this mess doesn't seem to be going anywhere ....but boy did it feel good to have a day to myself...hope it was as good for everyone else as it was for me.

Just got the bargello binding finished, so it's now in the washing machine getting nice and wrinkly :-) I had to really hurry with the binding as my mum texted me this morning to say they're making their way home (due to the shingles) and should be here tomorrow. I'm just hoping it'll dry in time! I had intended to hang it outside because we've had such beautiful weather lately, but of course, today it is raining! I really want to be able to have it on my parents bed by the time they get home, as I hope it will cheer my poor mum up a bit!

Looks like people are getting a lot done. Love the bargello and the Storm at Sea quilts. I'm planning to make a SAS for our 25th anniversary. We just celebrated our 22nd so should have enough time I'm off to church in a few minutes then we're car shopping this afternoon so won't get into sewing room until after supper probably Not what I had planned for this afternoon! Will check back in later to see how everyone is doing.

I'm finishing a Trade Winds pattern from Hoffman's free patterns. I got the top complete with the first border on and noticed I had turned one of the blocks in the center wrong. SO Friday night I spent ripping it out (had to be very careful because its bias edges) and turning it right. I was surprised it only took about an hour to do. Saturday I added the last border, made the back, and made the binding. Today I will load it on the LA and prepare to quilt Monday.

Still working with my 1.5" squares. I've made 32, 4 x 4" squares so far. Not sure what pattern I'll use but they sure are cute!

applique

Got a few egg potholders ready for binding and some owl potholders ready to turn. Then I got to play with prepping for the next applique which will be a market basket with veggies and flowers. Have to work today cutting more fabric and .the row by row for the shop needs to be broken down. Right now it is a pp (or pieced) background with applique. I need to also show it as all applique and all piecing. Maybe I can get that done tonight! Love all the great makes going on here, so much progress!

I was fairly productive yesterday, but decided I needed to get out of the house. Joined the rest of San Antonio to watch the fireworks, then sat in log jammed traffic for an hour and a half. Meeting a friend for an afternoon of sewing together, so I think I'll go ride this morning - blow out some mental cobwebs.

I love everyone's pictures! I was able to finish up all my blocks and sashings and am deciding if I want to start assembling my burgoyne surrounded top or do something else for the day. If I start assembling I will have to keep going until the rows are all complete since my kitties are quite active and I don't have a good place to do layouts besides the floor. No doors to shut!

Got a small wall hanging loaded on the frame. Going to use yellow thread and see how that work.



And yes - the cat is back in her spot, though she moved down a bit. We'll see if she sticks around once I start sewing, though she's a rather "different" cat, so I expect it won't bother her at all.
