corona-cation, episode 5

it's finally sunny here in this part of MD....and 60s too so very spring like...been a busy couple of days here.  i think i've finally gotten into a recognizable routine, in fact i know i have because when i woke up, i knew exactly what day this is...LOL!   even the old viking is smiling....here are some photos of what i've been sewing....some potholders made from mini-charm squares gifted to me...finished off the binding and the silver cloth too!

two i'll keep and two for somebody else....the binding was on hand, donated to the senior center a while back.  just knew it would be handy someday....and remember the easter panel?

added a couple of borders to it and will now quilt/bind and gift....so cute...another senior center donation....next, got the rows of the black/aqua together...

i really like the color combo of this...tomorrow will be a flimsy....it'll be donated...did some leader/endering and remember this?

pulled out the backing bag, did some frankenbatting and now ready to baste.  this will be the last and then i can put the folding table away.   it's not in the way but it does take up a fair amount of floor space.   ***  hoping your corona-cation is as productive as mine is so far....

addendum...

just to keep me honest, the 'home sweet home' pattern was by samarra khaja....

corona-cation, episode 4

it's another week of absolutely nothing but housework and sewing to do.  have to admit, the days are starting to lengthen but i do have a tip to make afternoons fly by--don't get dressed until noon!  i tried it saturday and it when i thought it was about 2 pm, it was actually 4 pm!  unfortunately i did think saturday was sunday....😧 but this could be the week i start my spring cleaning---it might.  and, i have a finish to report!

i busted about 3 yards with this and it's off the list! not sure where this will go, but definitely won't be hanging here anytime soon.   course i am still sewing circles on joseph's coat hoping this will be the week those all get done.  and since time is of no consequence, decided to trace my own paper piece foundations for an easter wall quilt that'll incorporate some lettering a la tonya ricucci's book "wordplay".

only 16 were needed and it was good mindless work while attending online church sunday morning.  i'll also be participating in lori's small doll quilt swap again this year....it's about the 5th year for me and my piece is ready for basting and hand quilting.  *** continue to feel very blessed that i have not lost my job, do not have children at home, my income is secure and i'm healthy...so full speed quilting ahead!
