Happiness is . . .

 

Making progress.

As hard as I try to get things done, especially on the sewing machine, Rocky knows !!! And he's so stinking cute that I just can't tell him to go and lay down and let me get my stuff done :)

So I've been making progress on my goal list.

I managed to get all the applique done for Growing Up QAL.

The white background fabric even has hearts on it :)

I even managed to get the red background sandwiched and quilted.

I now have two blocks for the new quilt. I'm going to do a few more before I decide on sashing colors/prints before I start putting blocks together. 

However, I did decide on a layout and borders. My graft isn't to scale, just more for a visual layout.

 

New project - I know, but I found this pattern when I was reorganizing them last weekend. I found it on Craftsy, I'm pretty sure it was a freebie. BF had a VW in lime green and I thought it would make a fun cushion for the porch :) So I got my fabrics and have gotten as far as cutting out the pieces. Hoping to get at least the layout done this weekend - if not the applique.

Next up, I finally got to work on the lace cabin background. It's amazing how long it can take to sew one seam !!!

I had a beautiful glittered sheer fabric that I'm overlaying on the "snow". The last block was pretty dark, so I needed something pretty to work on for this final block. Hoping to at least get the tracing of the stitching lines drawn for the weekend.

Still need to get my 9-patches done and the PJs, but I'm still feeling pretty good about my week.

Thanks for stopping by,

Wishing you a day filled with creativity and productivity.
