Lyndon asked what die I used for the challenge quilt.

It is a 60 degree diamond. Here are pics with the numbers.

It is a pretty big die so the piecing goes fast.

Hope this helps!

I got the borders on the challenge quilt. Here is a really bad picture of a corner.

I also finished another row of hexies while finishing out season 1 of Lost.

Off to church and then family time with a bit more slow stitching thrown in 😊.

Linking up with Kathy Quilts for Slow Stitching Sunday.

Small progress this week as I am working to get back into the swing of things at work and home.

The fabric I ordered to go with this should arrive today.

Looking forward to the weekend when I hope to spend some time with this.

Happy Thursday!

I got one album block finished yesterday morning before work.

And the next one ready to sew.

If I have something like this laid out and ready to go, I am more likely to make one before work each day. Little by little, this will get done!

While out in Arizona, Daughter #2 got me hooked on the show Lost. I realize I am very late to this party but I am enjoying it nonetheless. While watching with hubby last night, I got some work done on my hexies.

Before I go, just wanted to say thank you for all the kind comments you all left while I was out of town with my new grand baby. I apologize for not responding to each one as I like to do. It was just one thing too many to juggle at the time. I do appreciate each and every one that visits my blog!

Linking up with Lee at Freshly Pieced for WIP Wednesday.

We arrived back home yesterday morning after an overnight flight from Phoenix. I started unpacking and going through mail but really didn’t accomplish much other than a nap!

While I was gone, I did finally come up with an idea for my HMQS Quilt of Valor Challenge. Here is a sneak peak.

I ordered more coordinating fabric and have more diamonds to cut.

These are large 60 degree diamonds so the piecing should go fast once I get started. Good thing too as this quilt is due in Utah the beginning of April!

Back to work today and this will be an extra long week to boot. Time for coffee!

BTW, I am linking up with Judy at Patchwork Times for DWM and Connie at Free Motion by the River for Linky Tuesday.

Not much sewing has been happening here. I am making a wee bit of progress on my hexie quilt.

But most of that has gone by the wayside in favor of this:

Today though, will be spent here:

I can’t wait!

P.S. I am linking up with a Quilting Reader’s Garden for Hexie Weekend.

Here is another older quilt that I made for Daughter #2 a few years back.
I took these pics from the balcony at her apartment.

This quilt has been washed a LOT and I think it still looks pretty good.

We have been having a great time here with our kids. I am so not ready to go back to snow in Michigan!

Yesterday, Daughter #2 took Mr. Wonderful and me hiking in the White Tank Mountains. It was beautiful!

The grand dog was pretty tuckered out when we got done!
