Been Busy!

Been busy and productive this week. Found my elephant blocks that I have been looking for at least before Christmas.  And I have sewn them together to make a nice size for a crib quilt.  It also includes some English paper piecing.....




I also sent three of these to my Aunt Bell  for her and my other two Aunts.

I started a new lap  quilt  by Villa Rosa Designs called "Fortuna" which will be 50" x 61" when finished.





This is one block , the smaller blocks that surround that grey/black texture weave are Basic Grey's new line "Nova". I have all 20 blocks made, now I need to work on the sashing.
I have my quilt on a stick bound, but I still need to sew on the plastic worm.  I have also figured out what to do with my handkerchiefs.....





I only have three blocks laid out for now.... I have plenty to work on for now, chatter more 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.
