I love visitors to my garden - especially when they don't eat the produce :)
It's been a fairly decent week for me, though I haven't been able to blog all week, I did manage to get some things done.
Goals for the week of 9/18/16
1. UFO - pin cushion - DONE
2. Roman Shade - Sadly, no progress again. I'm taking it off the list and it will just end up as one of those bonus projects when it finally gets completed.
3. Christmas PJs - DONE
4. Farm Girl Vintage - DONE
All 12 blocks are now assembled, the idea for the finished top has been decided and designed, and I have 20 nine-patches to that end finished, as well.
5. Log Cabin - prepare block for stitching.
I started working on this, but not far enough to post a picture.
Thursday, BF and I got together. We had a great time catching up, reminiscing, eating, showing off projects, sharing ideas and memories. As is our usual practice, we seem to end up with a new project. This week was no exception :)
I don't really need a new quilt, but this one is just too cute to pass up. I'm running with the "kissing" theme and adding some cute Valentine's fabric I had stashed and no project assigned to it.
I spent the evening coming up with a layout for the top and decided I needed three more "sheep" blocks. They came six to the package for around $4.00 (clearance pricing - such a wonderful thing). So Friday morning I packed myself up and went to get another pack. BF has already said she would take the other three off my hands.
These are a wonderful size - 18 inches !!!! So they will make fun, large blocks. My complimentary fabrics are a yard each, which will give me four large blocks out of each.
I've decided on a 10 inch deep row in between the 18 inch rows, but I still need to get that fabric. This will be making this a 90 plus inches of finished quilt. Perfect for my queen size bed. I've already begun to do the stitching on the first block.
Thanks for stopping by
Wishing you a day filled with countless blessings.
