could i use up all the kaffe hexies?....in my dreams! i think maybe 1/3 got busted, leaving a healthy stack still to use. more plans for them but not now. this was posted the other day....
a placemat measuring 12x20....i've triangles to make another at some point....
and here is where i've stopped on the rising sun blocks....
has to be put aside now for the march challenge....i've adjusted the color and this is pretty close...the gold does not want to photograph true...planning to have it done before fall as our local library is again having a show of local works...
and i've also been working on another UFO.....
before the pandemic somewhere i saw a collection of african wax resist fabrics, so naturally i scooted on over to the website and bought a charm pack--so hard to choose just one. started during the pandemic with a working title of "telescopic travelogue" since distancing was the order of the day. fast forward, now anxious to get this done, whipped out my karen kay buckley bigger circles and have gotten this far...there are 36 blocks altogether i think...the others are basted. i alternated gray/black as i felt the black was too much and pretty pleased with the result. not like the (ahem) love bug fiasco!
so you see, peeps, plenty of irons in the quilty fire, no doubt due to extreme boredom waiting for warm weather and a bit of diversion. i've a busy week ahead for a change....3 outings via county transit which takes a chunk out of each day. since spring is just about here, will have to set aside a week soon for cleaning the apartment before the horrible hots arrive. no summer clothes out yet until shorts weather. still grieving of course, losing mom and then the car, a double whammy that totally derailed me. the siblings and i move forward with baby steps as we navigate life without our touchstone and anchor...but resilient yankees we...just keep on keeping on....so off to do just that...have a blessed day!
I chuckled when I saw your circles. I started a covid circle project with Liberty of London fabrics and I still haven't finished them. But I WILL, they are too valuable to me to let them sit.
ReplyDeletethe circles will be a pretty project no matter what you call it! lol
ReplyDeleteYou've had a busy time. I'm still in love with those rising sun blocks.
ReplyDeleteLots to show for the month and I do like how vibrant your African circles are.
