Sewing and Quilting Projects


     Last week was a wonderful week with granddaughters.  I spent July 4th sewing a new dress for each.  Lily even wore hers the next day; however, I did not take pictures.  I did take a picture of her in her new Super Girl costume she wore for her birthday party.
     It was Super Hero fun.


Today I finished another summer dress and remembered to take a photo of it.   I found out this morning that she had a bike accident last evening and has a broken leg.
  
   

Hopefully she can slip this dress on easily so I will put it in the mail.

     I have spent several hours quilting on my scrappy anvil quilt last week.  I designed a free-motion point to point continuous design for the anvil blocks.  All 20 are quilted.
 



Here is a sketch of my design.  I quilted the red line first, then the green line. 
                              
Next I have to decide on how to quilt the large quarter square triangle alternate blocks.

   This Wednesday quilt group met at church.  I finished sewing the center part of this Carolina Chain.

 These blocks are easy leader/ender units.  However, this is my 3rd comfort quilt of this pattern and I am ready for a different leader/ender block.  

Stay cool and enjoy time sewing or quilting.
