Gearing Up For A Finish

I am gearing up for a finish, at least I hope so! I had been working on "Night Sky " before all the Kim Diehl sewing began, and I have come back to it today! All I needed finished was the black strips sewn on three sides of each hexagon. I have 28 hexagons that just need one side left to sew on and trim. 


I do have four half hexies strips sewn on and trimmed.




They are not sewn down the center yet. I do need to get some more of the Jet Black so that I can make this lap quilt square with half hexies on each of the ends. I can do that tomorrow.

 I also have my sew a long from Jenni from the Woolen Willow caught up....


I also have four more dresden plates finished , almost.











I now have all the centers sewn down.  This Thursday there is a small quilt show in Walker at the casino, I am thinking of going to see it. We will chatter later, Martha.

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.
