I’ve been working on the next step of the Quilt Along.

These are the units I’m working on.

I have a few more to go.

Have a great day!

We picked up some stairs for Penny. She will go up a couple stairs, but then she’s afraid to go down.

Silly girl.

Speaking of Penny, we got her DNA results back.

This just made me laugh! So true!

Have a great day!

I love this little quilt. I hand quilted this little vintage top seven years ago. It would be a great quilt to recreate in another colorway. Enjoy!

Finish It Up Friday – Vintage Hour Glass

I can’t believe how quickly I got this little quilt finished! I guess I really missed having a hand quilting project. 

Once again, I usedthe large Baptist Fan stencil from Fun with Barb.

Gosh, I love that texture! I used Quilters Dream 100% Cotton Request batting.

Have a great day!

My quilt group is doing a block of the month this year. How it works is, each person makes one or more blocks and brings them to the meeting. For every block you make, you get one ticket. They draw one name and that person gets to take home all the blocks. The theme this month is fall fabrics. It turns out that I have plenty that I rarely dig into.

This is the pattern for this month. It is a variation of the disappearing four patch. I love this variation!

Time to get sewing. Have a great day!

Remember this?

I put it in time out a while back because the vision in my mind did not match reality. I also should have strip pieced some of the parts, instead of individually sewing each piece.

Anyway, I decided to make a few more blocks this week.

I’m still not thrilled. But I have all these pieces cut.

So I guess I’ll keep going. Have a great day!

Lori at Humble Quilts is hosting another quilt along!

I knew it would be blues and neutrals, so I grabbed this roll of Laundry Basket fabrics at the garage sale I went to. You can see it circled in green below.

The cutting directions are posted, but it’s definitely not too late to join in.

Remember this?

I pulled it out because I needed something to work on during our quilt group meeting. So I got those six pieces added on the side.

Not much, but it has motivated me to get back to work on this old project!

Have a great day!

I saw a whole pile of these blocks at Goodwill recently.

They were all basted in prepared for the fancy hand stitching. I left them there for someone else.

My voting is done.

I took this fun pic at city hall when I was there to vote.

Some flowers blooming after the rain.

And a recent tumble.

Have a great day!
