And a Row a day...
First my block a day projects.
These are the blocks I have made so far for the Sew Along Cheri Payne posted on her blog. I am using reproduction CW fabrics. I have been making one block a day. I need 25 total.
Next is a new project I just started. It is going to be a Christmas gift.
I'm using a Lexington by Minick and Simpson Jelly roll to make the blocks. I ended up ordering another so I can make a decent size quilt. The blocks are 10" finished. Today is day 3 so I need to get busy and make another block.
Now for the row a day.
This is another Christmas gift. I had a few rows already made that I showed you in another post. I sewed those rows together and then vowed to make a row a day and attach it to the other rows. So far so good.
It is so much easier to start these projects now and make a block or row a day. I hate to have to rush to get things done at Christmas time.
I've been prepping applique for the "Old Voices New Impressions" Sew a Long. I like to do applique in the evenings and piece during the day. I can't wait to start this new project in July.
Thank you for stopping by. I hope you have a great day.
Hugs, Cathy

Good idea to start those gifts now--I love those Minick and Simpson blocks!
Beautiful blocks. You will have such a nice start for Christmas.
I love your row a day quilt! I think something like that might be great for my next sew-along. :0)
I lo 've your commitment and the eye candy!
Who's hosting the appliance quilt a long? :-)
Your days are full of pieces to complete. You'll be glad as summer ends and the holidays approach.
How smart you are to start on Christmas projects now, getting in a little each day so that by Christmas, you'll have plenty of gifts to give.
Ok how does one get on your Christmas list - those are just gorgeous! I really like the Minick and Simpson fabrics.
Dear Cathy,
you are such a busy bee, wonderful projects and you are way ahead Christmas with your stitching, and you are right about that, can't start too early.
Greetings,
Sylvia
