No, I didn't make it in to my craft room every day this week, but I did make it in there a couple of days. That along with sit n' sew at the quilt shop and sewing club at church, I feel like I've gotten a lot done this week.
Here are the pillowcases so far. I still have fabric to buy for one more, but they are rolling along now.
I ran into a couple of snags working on the quilt top for church, one being that a few of my rows I sewed together backwards. Then, I thought I didn't have enough of the half square triangles so I went to work to make more. I had enough! I had forgotten that I already had one of the big blocks done already when I was counting. Sheesh! Give me another 6 months of sewing on this only at sewing club each month and this top might be completed.
The only thing I did in those 2 days sewing in my craft room was to work on more of the blocks with the rectangles. Both days I only intended to at least sew 2 together. I ended up with 17 sewn, plus the 3 I had originally sewn and then sewn together. I will keep making the blocks, as many as I can with the rectangles that I have, and then determine just what I will make with them.
I have also worked on more coasters. I was able to get more plastic canvas so will continue now to make those until I use up the entire huge ball of yarn.
Here is a picture of what they all look like. I do have some in my etsy store already in sets of 4, 6, or 8.
I am in hopes to make it to the quilt shop this afternoon for the monthly needlers. I want to work on the applique bunnies. They've been sorely neglected! If I do make it down there I will share a photo of my progress with those next week.

You do beautiful work. I loved looking at it, and thanks for sharing.
ReplyDeleteI love seeing what you have accomplished this week! I absolutely love the pillow cases for the grandkids! They are so colorful! What a fun day it is probably to quilt with a group of ladies! Thanks so much for inspiring us to keep working at our projects too!
