I’ve been wanting some of this Andover line, Double Pinks and Blues, for some time. I finally broke down and ordered a half yard bundle when it was on sale at Homestead Hearth.

I wanted it to go with this Jinny Breyer Pillar print I bought back in the ‘90s!

I’m not sure when I’ll get to this project, but I’ll be ready when the time comes.

I also got some yardage of these two.

The green was purchased for my leader/ender project and the yellow, just because.

Though that yellow could make a good binding. Maybe.

Have a great day!

I’ve made a few bow tie blocks here and there. I’m up to 49.

I decided to sort and count my pieces. I ended up with some leftovers. Apparently, I can’t count.

I had enough pieces for 114 blocks. So I cut enough bits for 6 more.

Now I’ll end up with a total of 120 blocks. I don’t know if I’ll finish these before I head to Arizona in December, but if not, I have everything in order now.

Have a great day!

After a wonderful , but busy weekend, I headed down to the sewing room late yesterday. I decided to tackle this bin of 1930-40s scraps.

I had an idea in mind for these. I grabbed these dies and started cutting.

These scraps were leftovers from someone’s Grandmother’s Flower Garden quilt and many pieces look like Swiss cheese.

So I spent a short forever pressing and cutting.

And then, it hit me. I was cutting pieces for the wrong quilt. I need 4” and 2” finished squares.

🤦🏻‍♀️

These could work, but throws the scale off completely. It is NOT what I wanted.

This totally took the wind from my sails.

I know, I can still use these and it is not time wasted, but it wasn’t what I wanted. For now, I’m putting this bin back in the closet.

Have a great day!
