variety challenge
so here's the finished "variety" challenge little quilt. hmm, this is the 2nd red little quilt i've made this month so far and i'm getting ready to bind my little red/white schoolhouse quilt also...that'll make 3 little red quilts i've made this month. now, red is so NOT my favorite color but it does draw one in because of its vibrancy. i thought after the red/cream north wind that was going to be it, but apparently not. take heart, though, i'm also working on little baskets in civil war repros plus a host of other projects as well. it only LOOKS like all i'm doing right now is red, but stay tuned. ***** it's the final friday before work starts, at least for a couple of weeks. after 2 weeks i'll be part time but to say i'm nervous wouldn't be a lie at all. i'm going to make the most of the weekend and try and get a whole week's worth of quilting fun crammed into 2 days. i am looking forward to doing something besides sewing for a change, though.

This little quilt speaks to me, Grace. I love churndash blocks and though I have never made a two-color quilt, this tempts me.

ReplyDeleteSending prayers for calm, happy, and productive times at your new job. If you were here, I give you a cup of chamomile tea with honey, and a big bear hug, but not necessarily in that order.
thanks vic!
DeleteJust catching up on my blogger friends after two weeks in St. Louis tending to DD.
ReplyDeleteGood news about you having a job! Or is it good news? You just doing what you need to do to earn some money. or does it really look like a good fit for you? Best wishes in any case!
like the churn dashes very much.
Popped over from Nancy Near Philadelphia to find Grace who I sent to in a swap a few years ago and then lost in blogland and couldn't find...and it is you!...serendipity yay!...
