And over the finish line!

 Wow, what a great sew day!

I had some finishes lined up, 

supplies ready and bobbins wound.

Chores completed yesterday so 

the whole day was set aside for

stitching!  

First up were finishes on 2 quilteds. 


 

Berries and Cream got a lovely creamy 

print binding . Inspire by a designed by Cheryl Filby 

in Australian Patchwork & Quilting.  



I used one of the 20" x  20" 
 25 squared on the back so 
it could almost be reversible!


I also tried the quilt ball /rolly thing for 

a photo. I think it looks like a cinnamon knot.



It is not destined 

for a home yet but I am sure 

the little gift gnome in my 

brain will find a place for it!



Next up is the double batted 

Pink Coin. I put a saturated pink 

binding on it and it really pops!





This inspired me to start thinking

about doing up some more lap 

sized coins in colors for the RSC 

challenge next year. Imagine 

the stack I could have to gift next 

December !!

Didn't get this pesky orange block done.


 

If I do it up , 

the process would be set and 

I can make other colors stress free. 

I think this will be a carryover for 

next year's RSC also. 

Is there time for big strings 

work ? Always.  I use this basket 

for zoom meeting work and it is 

really fun for ready to sew anytime.


 

The last snow day precipitated 

(see what I did there ?!?)

  a pile of crumbs borders

so those got all trimmed too!




The triangle block bin was 

pulled out for in between , stop and go 

sewing.  I really have trouble remembering

to slid in a triangle set but I will keep working on

it. I managed to get about 10 half squares

put together but it is a process. 

A bit into Monday and 

borders got mitered and another flimsy 

was born!  


These borders will 

be scalloped after the top is quilted up. 

A very productive weekend!


Stay safe and sew on !
