Another finish. This is one of my three projects on my March UFO Busting.
I so didn't like this quilt while working on it but now that it is finished I love it. It is approximately 36"x 36". I had in mind a table quilt but it looks like it would make a nice baby quilt. You can hardly see where the half hexagons were sewn together (except on the large red check hexagons.)
I started working on my second UFO Busting Project.
Here are the blocks from the 2011 EQ7 BOM. I only made 9 blocks and really don't want to make anymore.
This is the layout I came up with. I'm hoping it will look better once it is sewn together. I'm hoping to get the top sewn together later today.
I also finished the hand quilting last night (while watching Hell's Kitchen) on my Stripy Triangles Quilt and plan on attaching the binding and finishing that up tonight.
I have to laugh at some of the comments I have gotten. Mainly....Do I do anything but sew? Well, occasionally I do vacuum, and I cook, sometimes I do laundry and dishes....but yes...I do a lot of sewing. I have a very understanding DH. He retired last year and believe it or not he likes to do dishes and the laundry. As long as I cook he is a happy camper. Also I get a lot of sewing done in the winter...but come spring, summer and fall we love to go camping. I usually don't get as much done then.
However, since we bought a new trailer, I have one of the storage compartments under one of the benches which will be mine all mine. I plan on taking one of my featherweights with me and some projects.
It's cold here in Michigan today. We woke up to snow, wind and icy streets. Another good day to stay indoors and sew.
Thanks for stopping by and have a great day.
Hugs, Cathy
