summer IS coming...we've had a few 80+ degree day already...and may day is going to be another...
chookshed challenge number has been announced!
8. red/green applique. a visit to the baltimore applique society initiated this project--i'm making 4 blocks (2 done) shooting for a finish next this Christmas.
my red/green applique project....if it hadn't been chosen i was going to swap out for this one...these days sometimes too warm to sit with large quilt on my lap, more comfy to do some applique. working on block #3 now and quite possible to get them all done, squared up and maybe even basted?
as for machine sewing this month, hoping to empty a shoebox of scraps for more blocks i hope to sell....vacation is looming--a mere 82 days away--and fun money is definitely required.
no plans for mother's day so most likely will order a special dinner for delivery....and today? a start on apartment clean before summer arrives in earnest....remember to count your blessings and have a good day...
That is a beautiful green and red piece - Wow - a lot of work there! And yay for spring/Summer coming?? Hope your vacation spot is somewhere fun.
ReplyDeleteYour applique looks good. Great progress. Winter is here.
ReplyDeleteI haven't heard from my two youngest sons who live in FL so will likely pick up take out also!
ReplyDeleteI love your applique project! It's been over 80 here too. Seems more and more to go from winter to summer here. Have a wonderful weekend!
ReplyDeleteIt looks like that will be a beautiful red and green block. Hurrah for hand work.
ReplyDeleteWe did have some really warm days for April, except over Easter weekend, haha. May has been pretty cool here, though. It has been nice.
