here's the kaffe lozenges wall quilt, almost a flimsy, just a few rows to go....
the original plan was to piece 10x10 but thinking might do 11x9 instead...i absolutely love those prints...pretty sure i have plenty on hand for a few more projects...and what else?
it was zoom time for a bit last night....i've been working on the wildest dreams squares hoping to assemble the top this year. one evening last week sat and pinned in the setting triangles to have at the ready. there were only 6 blocks left to do....
happy to say on zoom 3 got finished with the triangles, now waiting for the 4 corner squares. maybe this weekend those will get pinned in...anxious to see this become a top. dreaming of the quilting as i sew....perhaps quilt every little triangle and some feathery stuff in the pink pieces? oh yeah, that sounds good...
november arrived once again for me....on 11/1/22 it was 5 years since my life-saving cardiac surgery....that's 5 years of sewing, birthdays, christmas and thanksgivings, beach visits, lobster, happy times with family and just plain lots of love....i couldn't be more grateful and blessed!
and all you boomers don your cowboy hats in tribute today and sing along with me....."happy trails to you..." it's the birthday anniversary of the king of the cowboys...roy rogers!
' love the Wildest Dream blocks! What an ambitious project. All those set in corners?! Happy Fall!
ReplyDeletethanks! not blue ribbon worthy but i like it..
DeleteI hope there will be many more years of post op happiness to come. You made good progress during the zoom session. Kaffe is bright!
ReplyDeletethank you so much!
ReplyDeleteLove how your Kaffe quilt is coming together! I was sorry to miss the zoom session but I am away from home with my Mum at the moment. May be next time! Christine xx
ReplyDeleteso important to spend time with mum...next time! and thanks on kind words...
DeleteYou came on just as I had to leave ..... would have loved to see more of your blocks. As my BIL says (he has had 1 heart attack and 2 strokes) each day his feet touch the floor each morning is a marvellous day! That is a good motto. Enjoy your days!
ReplyDeleteyes every day is a wonderful gift...even cardio man could not understand why i had survived so long with my blockage...
DeleteYou have made great progress on the Kaffe piece.
ReplyDeleteWildest Dreams is amazing--good job getting so much done during Zoom. Sorry I missed you. I was only on for 20 or 30 minutes "after hours", when a handful were still there.
My Mom had a couple of Roy Rogers albums, and I recall watching him in a show now and then on TV. Good memories.
thanks....thinking this one might be my next hand quilting project....
