round up

A few finishes this week and a good start on the new cross quilt...
My Crazy patch quilt is done. Jenny Egg, the minute I laid it down decided it was hers...

***


I've used up almost all my scraps for these crumb blocks. They are 7" square, and I have no idea what I will do with them. I'd like to get a few more together out of the bits I have left. We'll see. But I am so loving the batiks... Why did this take me so long to play with them??


I've been working on my machine quilting! What fun! I can manage the big stuff but haven't taken my time with small things, So I am making the effort.


I hope you all have a had a lovely CREATIVE week!

Have a great weekend!

A quilt grows .... & grows...

WARNING: Hard hat area : A quilt is under construction here...

I've been showing the progress of this quilt through the various thinking/playing phases.

It's no where near finished, all though, I see it in my mind how it will be.

Stay tuned. It ain't over til the big quilt sings...

And it's starting to "hummmm" along with me.


I've got three things I keep bouncing around on.
The big quilt above, this little batik above, and the crazy patch below.

I just can't decide which one I want done first, and I am thinking they will all get done on the same day if I keep going at this rate. A little on each every day....


Does anyone happen to know of a pink cherry fabric with white polka dots? I've seen some around but don't know who makes it... It's very similar to the vintage blue cherries on this quilt above.... but with a pink background, if anyone knows, shoot me a email. thanks!


Besides quilting, I meant to get to the weeds again in my garden today, we've had so much rain they just keep springing up its' hard to keep up. But I had no energy and think I may be getting the sniffles/sore throat... BOOO!! I actually had to turn the heat on today in house a little, as it was so wet damp and chilly... the breezes off the ocean go right to your bones. Even though I'm a few miles away...

I've been itching to do some more photography, other than my quilts etc. So I dug through some old stuff for inspiration. My sketch book is waiting, also, for me to sharpen a pencil or two... the brain is a ticking....

One little stitch, One little breath, One little step at a time...

Enjoy a creative day.
