football? nahhh, not me. my fun was of the needle and thread kind. i think football is dangerous, players overpaid and over-idolized, poor role models for kids and just plain ho-hum. it was another dreary weather day, so brightened up with colorful fabrics! early morning sewing yielded progress on this project...
just 4 more starbursts and acquisition of the all-important background to move this project along...then spent some time with Sunny on this UFO....
leading to this....
the empty drawer....yay! even had to pull out some plaid FQs to get enough to finish....hopefully a flimsy before week's end. *** then there's this UFO....
this was a wall kit bought from a guild member who was thinning the herd. see those feathers? i marked them on soluble interfacing with a yellow pencil, which is ok but now that the quilting is done, i didn't want to risk the yellow pencil staining the piece, so gently cutting interfacing from each little teardrop...2 corners are done and no rush on others. finish this week maybe? *** only 45 days into 2023 and i've crossed off 3 UFOs and maybe 2 more this month. pretty satisfying....might be time for a new start? bonnie hunter has 'butterfly kisses' on her blog, all solids which always call to me. i'd go smaller of course, but just might cave for this one.
