sew what's new?

  I got my "Five   Inch Is A Cinch"  quilt back from the quilter's, so some binding is being done in the evening.   Of course a label was put on also. I'll give you a better pic once I'm finished. I had a small fat eighth bundle of a fabric line called "Cinderberry" . It has reds and creams in it.  I mixed in some odd at quarters from my fabric stash. I decided to try Deb Tucker's Rapid Fire Lemoyne star ruler . I think I've had it for about 7 years and not opened the package. I am making the small wall hanging pattern that comes with it. So far I've made 7 - 4" blocks , 1 -5" block , and 1- 3" block. I am enjoying the process so far.  Chatter later, be kind and be safe, Martha.

  I finished the last of three travel bags for my three granddaughters. Now I need to wash all three  to get the chalk marks off. I took pics of all four sides to show you.  Now I must decide to make cloth zipper pulls or just use a  ribbon that co-ordinates. I also cut out 6 masks to make this week. Most men prefer no flowers and a more BLAH colored fabric. Hopefully this will work. Be still and be kind, Martha.

  My Aurifil spool quilt top with Tula Pink's Handmade fabric line is finally finished! I took several pictures along the way and want to share them with you.... last two spools small spools The backing I chose was a digital print at 108" wide. There is no formal  pattern as I drew it up on my graph paper. I really like it and might do it again using  a different line of fabric. I'll be taking this to the quilter's tomorrow.  Be safe and be kind, chatter later, Martha.

  Changed up my quilt in the hallway with a little bit early Christmas inspiration! I also finished up another 16 blocks on my spool quilt. That makes a total of 47 so far. I will need 2 more and then 14 of the small wooden embroidery thread spools for the borders. Be safe and be kind to one another, chatter later, Martha.

  I have eight more spool blocks to show you! We woke up to 7 1/2" of snow yesterday morning. Winter Wonderland in my back yard. Be safe and be kind to one another. Martha.

  I decided to go back and work on my Aurifil spool quilt with Tula Pink's Handmade Fabric line. Here are the 23 blocks that I have finished so far..... Some of the blocks are full spools, some are empty spools and some of the spools are partially used up.  Be safe and be kind, Martha.
