Work In Progress

      This week has really been a week for work in the yard. Our weather has been so nice and much cooler than the first weeks of September. All summer I have been working on getting a compost pile established and adding kitchen vegetable scraps. It has worked great so far so one morning I decided to expand my system. I created 3 sections so it will be easier to turn a pile into the adjacent section and improve the decomposition.

     My church quilt group is making the little “pocket prayer quilts” similar to the tutorial by Shabby Fabrics.   We increased the size to finish at 3” and hand write the prayer on the back fabric. We bought a package of the little crosses to put in each one. A member shared her stash of 100 - 3 1/2” leader/ender 4 patches to make them.

     A couple of days I have worked on the free-motion quilting on the modern sunflower quilt which is about half done. 


Today maybe a good day to quilt because rain has moved in.

Hope you are staying safe and healthy while enjoying some sewing or quilting.

  1. Love the small prayer quilts! Great idea to spread some comfort.
    Your simple mulch technique is a good project too.
