Cold Weather Sewing

I too like many of you have been doing some cold weather sewing. I hope to share this with many of you, today.

 First off, my "Summer Wedding " by Black Cat Creations! I love scrappy quilts , but this one I decided to make red and white.

I finished making all my "H" blocks and started putting them all in rows.

                    And last group of three rows, same as first! 

Then putting  those rows together.....




Then adding a border before ironing, finished except quilting and putting on the binding. Then I went digging and dug out a small project that when finished will be approximately 60" square and is between four or five years old. It is a wool project from Lisa Bongean called "Lisa's Garden". I had 16 blocks left to finish.











I have eight more to finish as of today. So I thought I would include a pic of quilt as it is now. 



I finished making all the nine patches yesterday. Chatter 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.

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.
