Still Snowing!

Yes it is supposed to snow five more inches tonight into tomorrow. I am really looking forward to Spring , but it might not get here until May!

 I finished my one hand project and gave it to the quilter last week. I really enjoyed working with the wool. The pattern is from "Elegant Quilts" by the Quilted Crow girls. It is done on flannel.

It is only 26 1/2 " square.

At the last session of Prairie Women I showed this extra dresden block that I had and had placed a hexagon instead of a circle.  I am going to make a placemat out of it and donate to our guild's  meals on wheels project. 
I also have two hexagon quilts in progress, but have not worked much with them lately.

At night I have been doing some more hexies.....
Kind of scrappy, have also started four more.
Will work on these some more while watching"Vikings" series and "The Apprentise".  These hexies were left over from my " Prairie Women" hexie quilt that is at the quilters.

Today was spent sewing on a special project for the store so I am just gonna give you a little peek .

Onward!

  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.

Daughter Called

Image
My daughter called and asked if I would make her a couple of quilts! Of course I said yes, I love sharing my quilting with her. She  found a block she liked on pinterest in black,greys and white. I drew out my pattern on graph and began piecing until I got this.... and I found the most perfect soft snuggle backing.... So I now just have to take it to the quilter! I have also put up a small Christmas tree in the living room. I finished a small churn dash quilt of Fig Tree fabrics that I started at retreat in the beginning of November. I also finished my candle in the window log cabin quilt.... I started a few circle  blocks. I am going to use various blue backgrounds with my Kaffe and Tula scraps. All for now,chatter later, Martha.
