variety challenge

these are my squares for the challenge using jo morton's 'variety' line of fabric.  this is one of my favorite patterns.  there are 3" corner squares and also a pieced border that will get finished and added today.  i'm hoping to get this basted also.  i'm currently quilting a small UFO, so this will be next once that is completed and lopped off my list.  though i'd like to get back to piecing little baskets, there are some things i must get done before starting work next week.  ****  this weekend hoping to get both feathered star and autumn change basted.  i also need to get back to the browns/muslin project as a new set of blocks got posted last week.  **** looking forward to returning to work and being more involved in the world outside the sewing room.  all play and no work can be tedious, not to mention the all-important financial aspect.  **** the weather channel says it's going to be 53 here tomorrow...that's right, 53 degrees in maine in february.   though snow has been seen as late as april here, it just doesn't look likely at all.  the winter festival this past weekend had been postponed and even then, there was no snow and no ice.  do i care?  not a whit!

  2. Weather has been unseasonably mild here in lower NY also. Did I miss something? Congrats on the new job and I hope you like it and enjoy it. Share with us the details when you can.

  3. I remember reading somewhere else--not here on your blog--that you had a part-time job now. Congrats! That is great, though I will miss your steady stream of projects! : )
    This one is beautiful! I've said it before and I'll say it again--I've never met a churndash I didn't like!
