monday design wall
the snow only encouraged me to ramp up my sewing time....it's almost gone now and pretty sure we'll have a green thanksgiving...the inchie project is coming along....every effort will be made to get this done this month but it'll take a few days of nonstop inchie busting....the second scrappy short border is just about ready to add, then it's the 2 side borders and gasp! i might even have to raid the strip bin to cut more....how good is that?
and another stocking got made lickety split....they take about an hour if all the strips are ready....i had pulled one fabric for the lining but changed my mind and had to go stash diving for another....
and more polka dot squares got assembled as well. in fact, cut all the needed blocks so they can be used as leaders/enders inbetween inchies...
all the freezer paper pieces for my red/green wall quilt are cut out and ironed on, plus worked on the guild's round robin that can't show right now...all this plus some christmas cross-stitch and an embroidery piece made for a busy week's end and weekend....resumed my exercise and the housework, laundry and annoying cooking got done too!......number one on my list for santa is grocery stores that stock more low or no sodium added items that can be easily found......i think gluten free is covered by now but us cardiac patients need equal space!

I really like how your inchie quit is developing. You are inspiring me to start a long term project like this. Hope you have a wonderful Thanksgiving and a warmer one then we are going to have here in NY!

DeleteI thought that my name would be in the previous post about your inchie quilt but for some reason it is not. Anyway, I am Susan R.
ReplyDeleteYour inchie quilt is amazing!
ReplyDeletePretty sure I could NOT make one of those stockings in about an hour. :)
Those polka dot blocks look very cute. How much larger do you plan to make it?
Low sodium is hard to find in any packaged food, isn't it? Finally discovered the Naturals canned veggies by Green Giant, I believe. No salt at all is added to the canned corn and beans that I buy. But I notice that even things that are labeled as low sodium often have more than you would expect--just lower than they used to have. :(
finding low or no salt added is always a safari....will look out for the naturals!
