I may cut a few more, but these are probably the last patches for FOTY 2012 you will see until I sew. I made an effort to press and cut some more pieces. With TFQ’s help I made a little … Continue reading
26 Projects – A New Year

Spiderweb Top Complete
I am really pleased to say that the Spiderweb top is finished. There are still a lot of things to do to get this finished into a quilt, but I am pleased, really pleased, that the top is finished. The … Continue reading
Spiderweb Again
Nothing for years and then a blast of Spiderweb posts. When it rains it pours, right? Thursday I wrote about working on the Spiderweb and how that felt. I mentioned the 7 blocks I had done and thought I should … Continue reading

Good-bye Garden
I had it on my list to deal with the disposition of a couple of projects and the Flower Garden was one of them. Once I pulled it out of the closet, I was a little sorry to see it … Continue reading
