Yeah....I got all the sashing, corner stones and border done for my block swap sampler quilt done.
I apologize for the wonkyness...but its just a flimsy and didn't want to hang straight. I had just enough of the red fabric I used in my block for the border and binding. My block is the top left block. I used the blue from my block for the corner stones. It is now on the pile to be machine quilted.
I was late to the party....I just started my blocks for the sew along designed by Jeni in the willow.
This is Part 2. I showed you Part 1 last week. I have a photo of it in my header.
I still need to do some button hole stitching around the flower. I needle turn appliqued the basket handle and star.
I have to embroider Love on the house.
Next I am printing up Part 3.
I'm slowly catching up with Cheri Payne's Common Threads. A couple of weeks ago I finished Block 9. I had already made block 10. Yesterday I made the 16 little log cabin blocks for block 11.
Those little blocks were so time consuming. This morning I put them together. I really love them. This block is 12" finished. Later today I hope to start on Block 12. That will finish up this pattern pack.
We are finally getting some good weather. By good I mean warmer temps and sunshine. We went walking Sunday at the park....but then I came down with the flu. This has been a lousy year for colds and flu. I guess it would have much worse if I hadn't gotten a flu shot this year.
I hope you are enjoying good health, warm weather, sunshine and time to be creative. Thanks for stopping by.
Hugs, Cathy

It has been a nasty year for the flus and colds this year. I hope you feel better soon.
ReplyDeleteIt looks like you have accomplished a lot even though you have been sick.

Your flimsy looks good, Cathy!
ReplyDeleteI have been tempted by Jeni's SAL, but have restrained myself. I'm trying to show SOME backbone this year, but I haven't been as strict with myself as I intended. : )
Cute, cute little log cabins. Love it!
I am behind too on the sew along with Jeni. I have blocks prepped but still need to do the applique.
ReplyDeleteYou're always one busy stitcher. It looks like you've caught up on most everything. Hope the warm weather gets you to feeling better soon.
ReplyDeleteOh Cathy you really do stay busy - such lovely projects!! I'm sorry to hear you're sick again, so am I, you're right about this being a bad year for that. Hopefully all the coming sunshine and warmer temps will help us both feel MUCH better.
