Do you ever find yourself completely overwhelmed with all the fabics, books and patterns to the extent that you become immobilized? That happens to me a LOT, I'm reluctant to admit.
This week I found myself sitting in my newly cleaned up sewing room and couldn't decide what to work on. I had been reading a blog by Cheri with instructions to make a little doll-type quilt and it seemed to be exactly what I needed. It didn't take very long nor did it use up much fabric but I had fun.
AND tomorrow will be another BONUS block for you, so keep watching!!!
What are you working on? I know you have already finished your sow-a-long blocks from April 4th and have to wait until the 18th for the next 3...
Oh, how could I forget? We spent the weekend with our darling grandson Ryan and he was helping my daughter make brownies. Is there anything as adorable as licking the beater??
Hope you have a great Wednesday.
Love to you all,
Randy
Just got caught up on the Sow Along. Whew! I am using civil war reproduction fabrics for mine. Looking forward to the bonus block.
ReplyDeleteI have lots of church scraps so I am piecing them together, I have been wanting to do this for a long time. My next projects are to do pillows from embroidery pieces (orphans) for the nursing home. WOCS is the charity.
ReplyDeleteI guess great minds think alike...I thought this was my quilt when I first saw it.
ReplyDeleteSo you know I like it.
Still working on my sow along.
Oh your little grandson is such a sweetie!
ReplyDeleteI'm green with envy.
Happy Sewing
That is a sweet little quilt! I clicked the link and browsed Cheri's blog. How fun that she does a little monthly sew-along and then gives the little quilt away. Sooo tempting, but I do not need another little project every month. But oh, how cute and fun! (Can you tell I am trying to talk myself out of the desire to play along?)
ReplyDeleteI still need to catch up on my set of Christmas fabric Sow-Along blocks! And I'm trying to finish off those many little basket projects I started, while starting some new gift projects. And I'm actually machine quilting some little things to improve my skills. Do I need another little monthly SAL? NO! But I love those little quilts! *LOL*
What a sweet little quilt...I love licking beaters too!!
ReplyDeleteLicking the beaters is always better than the cake!
ReplyDeleteYour little quilt is adorable.
Carolyn :)
Cute little quilt! Even cuter little boy. :)
ReplyDeleteThe beaters are the best. My DD still loves to lick them at 24years old.
I know what you mean about being overwhelmed! Sometimes, I wonder why I am doing this, but then I go and start something else. Recently, I just got tired of the projects I have been working on, so I pulled out some blocks I have made and started sewing them together (Scrappity-Do-Dah). Actually, I needed something mindless to do. So I worked on that for a while and then back to the big projects. I'm going to post the big project (king size quilt) and the Scrappity-Do-Dah quilt maybe today. Your GS is adorable!
ReplyDeletei so love the little quilt with the black and your king size quilt is stunning, i couldn't even imagine accomplishing such a task, will be so nice to snuggle under......
ReplyDeleteOh I just love your little quilt. Adorable!
ReplyDeleteRyan looks happy with that beater!!!
