before showing my sewing progress, reminding you that christmas is coming....and i've added this gem to my list....
and this one....
maybe you want to add them to your list as well....and design wall reveal....
ripped out all those seams and removed the light blue print border for this gray print....now i can move on....still need to make few more houses and trees....and while tidying up the sewing area, happened to see this in progress....one thing led to another and got it partly basted and a bit of applique done....
isn't that salmon print lovely? i wouldn't mind a few yards of that but sadly out of print....a quilty pal shared a half yard with me and i plan to use every smidgen....and speaking of design wall, finally got it hung on the wall again after replacing another of those pesky command hook adhesive strips...had to wait until i felt safe enough to stand on the step stool....let's see how long it stays up THIS time!!!
the new england sampler quilting is done and the binding is in process....i am totally giddy with this finish of my oldest UFO.....so what's next?
a wall quilt made from some brights given to me by my late pal marianne....the pieces were small but so colorful....this pattern is called "chop suey" and was in a quiltmaker issue some years back....i believe the designer is steve flanagan but can't be certain....this will be a quick finish, maybe even this month....
so juggling a few projects as is my usual style....also have some cross-stitch pin cushions ready to stuff and put away for next year's quilt show, and the monthly mini is ready to machine quilt....oh and pulled fabric for dear daughter's wall quilt too...think that's enough???
PT is starting later this week so that'll take up a bit of my sewing time but anxious to get started on shedding the walker....have taken a few encouraging independent steps here and there and back to regular fitness too that can only help...time really DOES fly when you are having fun!
