What To Do?

 I have taken my "Coastal Lily" quilt to the quilter. It was queen size after two borders were added. I also made a flanged binding for when it returns. I've got some pics to share with you....










and the binding....




 

There were a lot of waste triangles from this quilt and they were saved. The triangles were 3" square

and I  think I can get 36  blocks that are  8" square. I will still have some Half square triangles. 

Here are the 11 blocks that I have so far....













 I have a bag of circles left over also. I think I'll add those to the blocks also!




I can't even imagine having this much leftover and disposing of it! We'll see what I can come up with. Be safe and be kind. Martha.

Onward!

  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.
