sew what's new?

The weekend is here and so much to do.Today i worked on my scrappy dresden plates i put six of them onto thier backround squares and put six more together. They are waiting to be put on.  Did a little shopping for borders and sashing strips. Found one fabric which i might use as the large outside border.  Have to work on the rest later. I also finished my first two blocks of a block of the month ,Moments of provence.  Block one  Block two The color of the first block is the truest to the color.  Hope you all enjoy your weekend  ,  talk to you later,martha

IS IT POSSIBLE TO HAVE A CREATIVE OVERLOAD OR IS THERE JUST TOO MANY FANTASIC  PATTERNS OUT THERE?  WELL I JUST FINISHED MY SECOND BLOCK FOR MY STITCH THERAPY CLUB.  PERHAPS TONIGHT I WILL BE ABLE TO COLOR ANOTHER ONE. I HAVE PLACED THE CIRCLES ON MY SIX FULL DRESDENS , BUT HAVE SEWN ONLY ONE DOWN.  I HAVE MADE CIRCLES FOR MY PARTIAL DRESDEN PLATES AND CUT THEM INTO QUARTERS.  HOW EVER I JUST REALIZED 1/4 OF A DRESDEN ( AT LEAST THIS DRESDEN)    IS FIVE BLADES NOT FOUR ; SO I WILL HAVE TO EITHER SEW SOME MORE BLADES OR RIP SOME APART. I HAVE BEGUN SEWING DOWN MY BLOCK EIGHT OUT OF NINE FOR THE SMALL QUILT  HENRIETTA WHISKERS   BY ANNE SUTTON.  STILL HAVE THE WINDOWS AND LEAVES TO SEW DOWN AND SOME EMBROIDERY TO DO ON THE BLOCK.  AND TODAY I WENT TO THE OTHER CLUB THAT I BELONG TO  " KANSAS TROUBLES "  .  THEY GAVE US A PATTERN FOR A SNOWFLAKE TABLE RUNNER.   HUBBY HAS FOUR DAYS OFF THIS WEEK AND...

MY DESIGN FOR THE SCRAPPY PLATE CLUB IS TAKING A TURN , I THINK.  I AM MAKING  SOME CHANGES. I AT FIRST WAS GOING FOR BLUE CENTERS, BUT HAVE DECIDED TO MODIFY THAT BY ADDING YELLOW CENTERS.  THAT IS WAX PAPER CIRCLES IRONED ONTO THE BACK OF FABRIC WAITING TO BE CUT OUT WITH 1/4" LEFT AROUND THEM. THESE ARE PARTIAL PLATES WITH ONLY FOUR SEWN TOGETHER TO FORM A PARTIAL FAN OR PLATE. I HAVE ONLY SIX THAT ARE FULL DRESDEN PLATES.  I DO NOT NEED LARGE QUILTS , BUT PREFER SMALLER ONES TO HANG  ON  MY HALL WALL.  SO DOING A BIT OF REDESIGN  FOR MY NEEDS. I HAVE ALSO GOT MY BLOCK READY FOR TOMORROW'S CLASS IN STITCH THERAPY.  IT HAS BEEN COLORED IN WITH CRAYON AND THE VASE IS TEMPORARILY  TACKED DOWN  AND WAITING TO BE SEWN DOWN.  I HAVE DECIDED ALL MY VASES WILL BE OUT OF THE SAME MATERIAL. NEEDLE AND THREAD MEND THE TEARS IN YOUR SPIRIT.  MARTHA
