I've had a few car trips lately, that means progress on my blue work.
The one on the right is suppose to be Fushias (?!) and the one on the left features the year 1954 which is my bith year. I thought I'd barrow an idea from my friend Lori D. of making a quilt to celebrate my birthday. (Lori's was her 50th) I turned 60 in March, I'm a decade behind but that's OK! Anyway I decided since I have been laboring so long on this blue work thing I would make it My commemorative quilt to honor my 60th year! I hope to have enough blocks by the end of the year to finish the quilt! Here's my layout so far (minus the two above).
I'm not sure I will use this layout but it's one idea...Blue work is the perfect travel project for me. It's compact and does not require super concentration and fun!
Happy Mid-week!
cheers, CW
How fun, and a great idea for your 60th!
ReplyDeleteI love the bluework. But I know I will never do it, embroidery is a love/hate relationship. I love the look, hate how mine comes out looking. Great idea of making it commemorative.
ReplyDeleteThat's a lot of work, and its shaping up quite nice.
