A Binding We Will Go

Saturday was a day of errands after my Kansas Troubles class. But good errands!  My friend Connie brought my Kim Diehl , small quilt to club as she got it quilted on her long arm the night before.


Mary  Hammer , to whom I had given my Pam Buda , Prairie Women's Sewing Circle , small quilt to quilt  and my Buck Block quilt from this summer ; gave me a call  to tell me that I could pick them both up.  Which I was happy to do!  Mr. Sew What decided to ride along for the outing.  That meant a stop at the used book store on the way ,  for Mr. Sew What.  I went to visit the thrift store that had opened in the old spot of the book store next door.  
My Pam Buda from Prairie Women's Sewing Circle I .
Buck Block Quilt
The back had every scrap I had left from the front of the quilt. Also sewed in label to backing fabric so that label is quilted in.



These are gift pouches from a pattern by Terri Atkinson.



They make a nice presentation for gift cards or small but precious items.   Well with a needle and thread , off I go to make more hexes!  We'll chit chat later, Martha.

  I have been doing some more sewing of flying geese, the past couple of days.  I have made some progress as I have about twenty sashings total sewn now.  Here are pics of what I have finished so far. I also got back another lap quilt from the quilter and I have sewn down the binding on the front side. In the evenings I am enjoying hand sewing the back side.   I also purchased some Applipops  , which were a bit on the expensive side($35) and decided to try them for all the circles in this quilt. They are not worth the price in my opinion.  To each his own. I prefer my mylar circle washers, There are many more sizes and easier to use.
