Moving Forward

One should be always looking forward towards the next thing on your list.  Lately I have been able to do this!  I have two things going on my list right now , one of them is Kim Diehl's Simple Whatnots II collection. They are simply divine!! I finished the first one that is a bonus pattern....




I got my berries on , quilted and bound. Love it .  The second one is a blue and cream one, only about 23 1/2" by 23 1/2" big.


I have it layered and need to start quilting it next.  I recieved my alphabet  quilt back from Rebecca Anakkala who quilted it for me.   Hopefully you can see some of the quilting from the back....


To me this is a  clamshell design.  Here is the front...


So now I must find time to bind this also.

 I have finished my owl block of my "Wooly Critter Sampler" as shown here...


Still have some time this afternoon to prepare another block for hand stitching while watching " Downton Abbey", chatter with you 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.
