monday report

monday again?  crikey, weeks go by fast...but have truly been busy all week.  doing what?  first, the weekend was spent sewing together the secret gift quilt.  the top half is done...it's a biggie at 90" square and got 5 rows put together when i had enough.  will probably get the top done before week's end.  this is the largest quilt i have ever made and will ever make.  what else?  

a bunch of little churn dash blocks got cut out and ready to sew before sunday ran out.  on today's list.  *** last week at the farmer's market, purchased a jam tart for $2 and the more i thought about it, the pricier it seemed, so tried some of my own.  i don't have the fancy tart pans but they taste the same...

might have mentioned culling old quiltmania magazines....something that can be problematic...LOL

most of the pages i saved were for small projects except this one that more than whispered to me.  of course ran right to the stash for a tryout...

while i don't have enough background yardage for the entire piece, pulled several FQs of same value.  when i finish one, will just continue with another.  will probably skip the sawtooth border.  absolutely no rush on this, long list of others first, but just couldn't pass it by.  and so it goes....
