What's Up

More Doctor visits than anything in the sewing room. Working on my blocks for Mystery Quilt for our third saturday group still.  I needed 84  four patch blocks. I have about 90 done. I am using black as my background color....


I then started to make fabric as Victoria Findley Wolfe puts it. Amanda Jean Nyberg says its sewing slabs together....


I then sew up my 4 1/2" half square triangles. I haven't gotten them put together yet, will write again once I do. I have gotten two of my quilts back from quilter's. They are from my 2 1/2" strip bin. The first is from quilter, Susan Gordon and is bound and has a label on.



The second has a label on and has been quilted by Karl Muller. I haven't had time to make binding yet but it is trimmed. It also has a pieced backing of flannel and corduroy.





 I will be finishing this off next. I still have two other quilts out to be quilted. So happy to see snow melting , hope this continues, 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.
