I sewed the bottom row on this Kaffe orphan block quilt top yesterday. It is 48" x 63.5". The light fabrics on the 3 Starry Path blocks aren't Kaffe fabrics but everything else is a Kaffe Collective fabric. I'll look for backing fabrics on Saturday.
We have a snow storm coming Saturday with 4-8" of snow predicted and then the frigid weather will be here for a couple days. It sounds like good sewing weather to me.
I love the variety of blocks and the bright color fabrics you used for your latest project. Looks fun and happy! With cold weather coming, I’m sure that staying inside and sewing will be a great way to keep you busy. I have family visiting for the holidays and we have been enjoying warm weather and doing lots of outdoors activities. Next week they’ll head home and cooler weather will come our way. I plan on keeping myself busy sewing, too! Happy New Year!!!
ReplyDeleteOh just a lovely finish, Wanda--
ReplyDeletewe are fog-bound this morning with 45 degree temps...
I am so out-of-sync--today is Friday..right? Holidays always seem to get my days all mixed up....sometimes I think I need a "day-clock".;)))
Anyway--I hope your New Year will be a very happy and healthy one
hugs, Julierose
a great use for so many left over blocks and pieces and they went together so well. It turned out great.
ReplyDeleteNo snow expected here but the cold for the weekend.
You have some fun projects in the works! Happy New Year! Enjoy sewing through the snowstorm!
ReplyDeleteIt's amazing how well these orphan blocks go together, like you planned it that way. Of course, I know it was a lot of work to make it look like it was planned. Beautiful finish to end 2021. Happy New Year.

Love, love, love it! What a happy quilt; surely you will nap well under this one.
ReplyDeleteA great way to wind up 2021; happy new year, with wishes for a healthy and exuberant 2022!
Congrats on the final finish of the year - here's to MANY more hours of stitching in 2022. Happy (safe and healthy) New Year to you!
ReplyDeleteWow! The bottom row is such a great addition to your Kaffe block quilt top. Finishes it off so beautifully. I love the variety of colors and fabrics and designs you've combined with your usual magic. I so appreciate you sharing your process with us. I learn something new every time. Wishing you an exuberant new year filled with peaceful afternoon naps under this vibrant, happy quilt. Terre
ReplyDeleteThe top is wonderful, Wanda. Nice end of the year finish!
ReplyDeleteWhat a wonderful finish for those orphan blocks :-)
ReplyDeleteWe "think" our snow storm is over here in the PNW. This much snow and cold is not normal for us.
I hope you have a fabulous, safe, healthy New Year
It’s been a good lesson in balancing blocks/colors watching you but this one together. I was glad when you removed the spacer piece from the top of the star blocks on the right as it validated my instincts that it didn’t “fit’. Such a pleasure seeing your work, thank you!
