Our spring weather has been cooler this
week so most has been spent indoors with much accomplished in my sewing room. My “Sunshine on a Cloudy Day” quilt top is
sandwiched and quilting has started.
The
free pattern is from Sarah at Confessionsof a Fabric Addict blog and is one of her Rocking Rectangles designs.
I finished the kids comfort quilt made
from a fabric book panel. This was a
quick quilt.
I added borders to the 4 Patch Swirl so it
is a finished queen size top. I’m happy
to get it this far since it was started about 2007. It is too large to get a great photo without
more time. I have pulled a couple of fabrics from
my stash for possible backing but may look more.
On
my design wall I have blocks for a church group comfort quilt. The 16 patches were orphans donated by
someone. There are only a few more seams
to be sewn. I laid it out Wednesday but
decided it needed more variety of neutral squares and cut more.
Enjoy time sewing or
quilting.

So much good stuff! I love the storybook panel for a cuddle quilt. That will make it extra special for the child who receives it. And your four patch swirl is so cool -- I wish you'd given us some close ups of that one as well so I could see the block design and fabrics better. Congrats on that long awaited finish -- don't you feel like you should look out the window and see a parade when you finally reach the end of. project you started so long ago? :-). Finally those clothespin crosses -- I especially like how worn and rugged the one made of old clothes pins looks. What kind of glue holds them together?
ReplyDeleteThose clothes pin crosses are pretty amazing!!
