Working Away

I finished the binding and did the quilting on my home sewing machine. This quilt is still from my 2 1/2" bin, however I did cut the strips  down to 2" to make the four patches. I also picked out 3 1/2" squares from my box of those. So I am still getting rid of remenants!



I have flannel on the back with a label and it is approximately 65" square.



I have also started another quilt from the 2 1/2" strip bin. With it I decided to include the leftovers from the backing of the last quilt top finished. The green mottled Marcia Derse fabric will be in the snowball block , of the alternate block.



Stay healthy and wear a mask when you do go out! Try to stay home and be kind to one another. We now have six in our county with the virus, ages between 20 and 80. One happens to be a health care worker.  Pray for one another, 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.
