Lots of yard work going on here... but I manage to sneak in some sewing time as well!
On the Design wall: I was fiddling around with a collection of 'Asian fabric' themed blocks. It's fun to just mix and match and see what I can come up with. This collection had some gapes in some of the rows. Which meant I was going to have to make some more blocks, grrrrr. At the same time I was getting antsy about JUST finishing Something! So back into the basket went this mess and back to the closet Full of UFOs to look for something I could Actually Finish !
Enter this cutie. I found this nice collection of scrappy 9 patch blocks at the guild Flea market. There were some leftover scraps included with them which I used as the posts. The sashing and border was from my stash. easy peasy! Top done and ready to quilt!
Before I could put this on the quilt frame I needed to quilt the top that was already on the Frame!
It's probably been there for at least a couple of weeks.
Nothing like a little back up in the queue to get me motivated forward!
NOW the stack of quilts waiting to be Bound is getting quite tall. I don't know what it is about binding quilts that annoys me so?! But like all these other issues, I know, I just need to get-on-with-it to arrive at a Real Finish.
I hope you all have wonderful Novembers! take care, cw
