I have been sewing a little, but it feels like I have been riding a stationary bike: sewing for hours and not going anywhere. I need to change that and finish something. I know I shouldn’t be product oriented, but sometimes finishing something big gives the ego a good boost.
The design wall looks different than last week, though I am sure you can see the similarities. As you can see, the design wall is packed. I kind of sewed everything that wasn’t already sewn down and threw it up on the wall.
1. Two hot color four patches that I thought I would use as the beginning of a quilt, but haven’t done anything with yet.
2. Red and turquoise four patches. I made one additional since last week.
3. Completed red and turquoise four patches. The most recent one is on the top.
4. BAMQG donation blocks. I made them using leaders and enders. Aren’t they cheerful?
5. Same FOTY rectangles as last week. I am looking at The Great Unwashed and wondering what fabrics I want to wash and iron so they can be included in FOTY 2014.
6. One Field Day Zipper ‘block’. I cut the patches apart from each other on Saturday and somehow that one ended up on the design wall.
7. Russian Rubix Octagons. I still have a few blocks to make for the border, so I still may need some of the octagons. I am not sure if I will use all of these in the Russian Rubix quilt or if they will be part of the Snowball/9 Patch quilt I have in mind. Since the border is nearing the end, I will know pretty soon.
8. Black & Grey Teenaged Boy Donation blocks and I happen to be using them for rewriting my chunking tutorial.
9. PIQF Crosses. I think TFQ and I will probably abandon this project, but I had so many pieces cut that I decided to work on sewing them. I may give the blocks to the guild as donation blocks or I could put them together as the center of a donation quilt or I could make a pillow.
10. City Sampler block n.31. Bleah. It went together like a log cabin and I am not very happy with the way it turned out.
So the process continues…
I am linking up with Judy over at the Patchwork Times.
On the one hand, I am looking forward to Thursday. On the other hand, I would rather keep knocking out little projects in my studio!
I have one quilt that is almost ready to sandwich and finish and several that are close. Trouble is, my husband is now sharing my studio space with his computer and guitars. Talk about crammed in!!!
Loved looking at your design wall. So colorful! So you! 🙂
Did you kick DH out of the studio yet? 😉
I hope you are back to sewing and had a good Thanksgiving.
