The new One Block Wonders are started (luv 'em), they're on my sewing table not the design wall. And on the wall:
Pineapples wall quilt. I pieced the blocks on Wednesday and appliqued them & finished piecing the top on Saturday. I want to quilt it this week.
Next to it is my FFF stitchery I needed to add the binding.
On my cutting table: stack of six diapers to make matching burp clothes to go with the baby quilt I made last month.
In front of the diapers is the border fabric for my 1st One block wonder
and the Block-a-Day calendar is sitting in the back, as usual I will work on a week's worth.
Paul and I went on a long bike ride on Sunday, 4 hours including a nice stop for supper at a little country restaurant and a stop here to stretch for a few minutes.
But we didn't leave the house until around 1 o'clock, waiting for the temperature to get into the 60's. So I sewed for a little before we went and I sewed a lot last night.
And now the diaper-burpers are done.
The
FFF is finished, well except for 2 little hanging sleeves that I need to whipstitch to the back.
I cut the backing and batting for the Pinapples wall quilt and moved it out to the HQ for quilting.
I did reload my Mariner's Compass so that has to be done first. I want to add more quilting in the center areas of the blocks. I'll be much happier with it after I do that.
I only cut 1 of the block a days so far. Sometimes I'm just not in a cutting and figuring color placement kind of mood. So they still need cut.
And I cut and sewed on the inner binding on the Blue One Bl Wonder. I really wanted to get those on since there is bias edges all over the place on that thing-makes me nervous.
So today my wall looks like this:
EEK! It's empty....I vacuumed it on Friday, it was really string-y! I felt so much better after it was vacuumed...I think that might be a sign I need to get out of the basement more often! :)
It's going to be beautiful today so I will be out in the yard, transplanting stuff that should have been done in the fall but I didn't get around to it. I still have a few days--they're not too big yet.
