26 Projects – May Update
Here is the list, again, still in no particular order. This time I have moved the finished pieces off. 23 WIPs left! I had to add two more projects to the list. I can’t believe I forgot about the Stepping … Continue reading
Corner Store Progress
I think this project will progress in fits and starts. I made the new blocks (on the right) while I was piecing the Flowering Snowball. I used the Corner Store blocks as leaders and enders. Such a useful, productivity improving … Continue reading
Flowering Snowball Top & Back
Sunday was a nice day. It was Mother’s Day and, though nobody in my house said anything specifically, I did whatever I wanted and didn’t have to do too many chores. I received a depressing, if very true card and … Continue reading
Corner Store Progress
I know I am trying to finish the Flowering Snowball, but the hand piecing is slowing me down. Since th cut squares and triangles were sitting right by my machine, I just started sewing them together. I just needed to … Continue reading
Flowering Snowball – Chunked
I thought I would work on the Corner Store as my next project. It was calling to me during the dark time while I pieced the Renewed Jelly Roll Race. As soon as I turned my attention to it, it … Continue reading
Flowering Snowball Update
I am progressing well on the Flowering Snowball. I seem to be able to sew about a block a night. These are hand pieced, which is why they take so long. I am trying to decide how to put the … Continue reading
26 Projects April Update
Here is the list, again, still in no particular order. This time I have moved the finished pieces off. 23 WIPs left! I had to add two more projects to the list. I can’t believe I forgot about the Stepping … Continue reading
Renewed Jelly Roll Race Update
The top and back are done. The binding is made and I took the quilt to the quilter on Friday. You will have to click on the photo to see the border I put on. It is relatively small – … Continue reading
Florets
Yes, I am working on the Flowering Snowball. It is a hand project (as I designed it to be) and I work on it when I watch TV. I did a lot of cutting a few weeks ago, as I … Continue reading
FOTY 2012: Back in the Saddle
I haven’t done anything with Fabric of the Year 2012 yet. I decided that I would go even more simple than last year, but would keep one of the elements of FOTY 2011. I decided that I would go with … Continue reading
The Beginning and The End
This photo shows how this project started. Well, really it started as a Kate Spain Terrain Jelly Roll, but then I sewed it into a quilt top using the Jelly Roll Race idea and it ended up looking like a … Continue reading
Jelly Roll Race – Weekend Work
It is at this point in the process where I just want someone to take me out of my misery. Obviously, I am being dramatic, but really, I don’t want to do this project anymore and I wonder why I … Continue reading
Corner Store
In the book, Pretty Little Mini Quilts, I saw a small quilt similar to this. At the time, I was cutting up diamonds for FOTY 2010 and ending up with boatloads of triangles. I thought this project would be perfect. … Continue reading
Renewed Jelly Roll Race Progress
After cutting what seemed like a zillion diamonds last week, the picture(left) is what resulted. There are a lot of diamonds. As I mentioned, about 158. It would be nice if that left corner was filled with diamonds as well. … Continue reading
Jelly Roll Race Background
I have been hard at work figuring out what to do with the Jelly Roll Race background. I tried the Ta Dot Grey as someone suggested. I love that fabric, but think it fights with the fabrics in the actual … Continue reading
