I have almost finished
quilting this “Hugs and Kisses” comfort quilt. The border is yet
to be quilted. I am contemplating a special motif and would prefer
to do the work at home on my regular machine. Since I am out of town
and using a different machine, I simply quilted a large meander for
the middle.
This month I pieced the
Step 7 final blocks for the Seeing Stars Sew Along. I found
myself short of the background fabric I have been using. I could not
cut 3 1/2” squares of background for 4 patches. I decided to make
an alternate 6” block. When I made the 12” star blocks for step
6, I saved the corners and sewed bonus HSTs. I squared them to 2
1/2” and was able to piece enough “Friendship Stars” for
alternate blocks.
Looking forward to assembling panels in April.
GD Lily is ready for
Easter in her finished dress. I am so glad I did the crazy piecing
for the bodice and will do it again sometime.
Hope
you stay healthy and have a great weekend. Enjoy some time sewing
and quilting.
