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.<\/p>\n

\"Thanksgiving<\/a>
Thanksgiving Design Wall<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

The design wall looks different than last week<\/a>, 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.<\/p>\n

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.<\/p>\n

2. Red and turquoise four patches. I made one additional since last week.<\/p>\n

3. Completed red and turquoise four patches. The most recent one is on the top.<\/p>\n

4. BAMQG donation blocks. I made them using leaders and enders. Aren’t they cheerful?<\/p>\n

5. Same FOTY<\/a> 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.<\/p>\n

6. One Field Day Zipper<\/a> ‘block’. I cut the patches apart from each other on Saturday and somehow that one ended up on the design wall.<\/p>\n

7. Russian Rubix<\/a> 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<\/a> I have in mind. Since the border is nearing the end, I will know pretty soon.<\/p>\n

8. Black & Grey Teenaged Boy Donation blocks<\/a> and I happen to be using them for rewriting my chunking tutorial<\/a>.<\/p>\n

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.<\/p>\n

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.<\/p>\n

So the process continues…<\/p>\n
