Only one photo.................


There were lots of tasks yesterday but I only took one photo.  All of the blocks for the Plaid-ish Quilt are sewn and on the design wall but this isn't the final layout.  I need to move some of the medium value blocks so the same fabrics aren't near each other.

In addtion to sewing the last 9 blocks I sewed the binding on the other table runner that I quilted last Sunday.  Then I cleaned off the table where I cut my batting and made a list of all of the pieces of batting that I need to cut.  I have 6 pieces (at least) to cut and I'll use up the end of one roll of batting and open a new roll to finish.  I chose some backing fabrics that I also need to piece.

In addition to all of that I need to sew hanging sleeves on 2 quilts that my east coast grandson and his wife chose when they were here the first week of the month.  I have the sleeves made, I just need to pin them on and hand stitch them in place.

such a lovely plaid quilt!! I find moving blocks around on my wall tiring--it's the reaching up these days (not to mention the squatting down!!)
16 here right now and sunny...no wind to speak of so a nice morning...it's often the wind that keeps me from walking outside...
Hugs, Julierose

Right now Plaidish looks glorious… can’t wait to see where you will move the blocks around to make it better. You have such a good eye for perfection.

Do you work hard to avoid same-fabrics-touching or just let 'em mix as they wish?

Karen - Quilts...etc. said...

you were busy - the quilt is looking really good. It takes awhile to get hanging sleeves done too and in line precisely

WOW! This is mesmerizing!

You amaze me by having enough projects on the go that you just move from one to the other, seamlessly getting something closer to finished and finishing another!!
Love Plaidish and your tablerunners! It's always a treat to visit here!

Hugs!

It must be the Scottish blood in my veins plus the love of color - this one is a big favorite! Do you want to sell it? (My to-do list has far too many squirrels in it :-) )

Oh yeah, that turned out very nice!
