I am super happy to show that my two stitcheries are finished. Stitchin Annie now hangs in my sewing room. The pillow doesn't know where it's going to live yet.
They were on my 2013 Goals list--not anymore. yea!
X's is together.
It is 72 x 96 right now. I may call it done but I have a HUGE bag of strip scraps and think a scrappy string border would be good. I would want to put a narrow blue stop border on first and not sure if I have enough blue to do it. I'm at a point here with projects (?) that the thoughts of buying more fabric just to make it bigger seems wrong, weird...a waste...I don't know.
Maybe I just need another cup of coffee!
Another fun quilt by Libby that I quilted up for her.
The dinosaur print she used for the backing is soo adorable!
The start of another customer quilt-concentric circles ala Angela Walters.
I just l.o.v.e the texture this pattern makes. It's a big quilt 89x89 so I'll be 'circling it' for a few days.
And here is the start (OMGOSH what am I doing) shame on me
of MetroHoops.
I used a partially used Jellyroll and some 2.5" strips from the stash. I'm laying these out right now with four matching 'hoops' in each block, but I know a few blocks are going to be a mishmash so I hope I can control myself and NOT start to sew the blocks together until I have them all made.
Don't these look a bit labor intensive???
They are so stinkin' quick it just amazes me every time I make one.
Since one of my favorite things is watching a quilt 'grow' on the design wall, it's going to be hard for me to not keep making these hoops instead of finishing up other projects first...
