I have not posted in over a month. No posting means no work done by me. I wish I had a good excuse, but I keep telling myself I need to get back to sewing. I finished this little piece yesterday. I took a class from Linda Poole to learn how to use Inktense pencils and we made this bird picture. Sort of like coloring in a coloring book. The class was in Feb of 2016. That was a long time ago. I finished the coloring after the class in March of 2016. I got it layered and quilted in April or May of 2016 and then it sat while I looked for a binding material. I finally found this batik last week and now it is done. Yea!
I completed piecing and assembling the mystery quilt from Kathleen Tracy's Small Quilts group. It was fun, but ended up being 30+" square. That's bigger than most of my small quilts and I will have to find a place to display it. I marked it to quilt with a Frixion pen and hope it will come out when I am done.
Hope you are more motivated than I am. I want to finish more projects and move on.
A friend brought me a bag of beets. Four beets to be exact.
Each was bigger than a softball. I had to parboil them for an hour in two batches as my biggest pot would only hold two at a time. Then into the freezer they went. It took me about 3 hours to accomplish all this. Good thing I love beets.
I am linking to Small Quilts and Doll Quilts today.
That is a great binding fabric for your bird!
ReplyDeleteCute little mystery quilt. I understand having limited hanging space. I often leave borders off of small quilts so they will fit in the space I have for hanging them.
Wow--those are HUGE beets!!
