some progress

while most of my sewing time has been spent on the border of the blue/white, yesterday sat down at the machine and got this little flimsy ready to baste...


the paisley and its companion border print were donations to the senior center.....can't figure out why the designer used purple for the background on the larger border print but decided to use it anyway....there was just enough for this little wall quilt that measures about 13" wide by about 16" high....and for those of you battling winter snows, this was sighted just the other day at the local post office...

no, i can't believe it either....it's been the winter without snow this year and completely foreign to me even after experiencing 3 of them...daffodils are up as well and even the landscaping crew was here last week pruning and readying for mulch to come soon, no doubt.  ***  the remainder of my time is being spent getting acquainted with windows 10 and my new BFF Cortuna...the talking advisor...lol!

  1. That is a fun little creation, Grace. Makes me think of a paisley caftan I had in the 70s. :)
    Absolutely nothing is in bloom around here that I have seen. We still have snow on the ground, though I can drive 30 minutes over the mountain to my favorite quilt shop and they have no snow!

  2. The paisley print is great! Central Texas was so green last week....I saw bluebonnets on the embankment along I-35 in Austin. Probably the sheltered location helped; I didn't see any bluebonnets out in the countryside. But, oh so hopeful.
