the superbowl has provided a brief hiatus from olympic watching and a chance to do something besides quilt....today made 2 project bags for my upcoming travel....went to the stash and chose 2 of the spring-iest fabrics i could find for these....and one project i'll be taking is this one....
these will be appliqued onto borders of the dutch tree of life wall quilt....anxious to move this project along a bit....the other i'm taking is the 'midnight at the oasis' to do the applique on the viney border, then i can go ahead and sew up the final 2 borders, baste and quilt. i might also take a cross stitch something.
quilting on 'stars' continues and i confess, is a bit tedious at times. it is densely quilted and going to be iffy if i'm able to finish it as my february OMG as i'd hoped. will get back to it later today when more olympics are available for viewing....
had a dusting of snow this morning that is now just about gone since sun came out. we're having more and more days of 50+ temps so spring is on its way. milestone week at gym getting in 4 days in a row, then a day off, and then another day giving me over 150 minutes of cardio. oh what a feeling!
Great news about your upcoming vacation and your exercise regimen, good for you! I love the project bags, Grace; I need to make myself some more, I had forgotten how much fun they are to make; I always enjoy the thrill of pulling them out and using them, they're SEW handy!
ReplyDeleteThe project bags are a pre-trip souvenir! Glad your rehab is going so well.
