Well October is zipping by and
I have been busy with the last of the
retreats with some charity sew days ahead.
This week I managed to assemble the .....
drum roll please... RSC Star string quilts!
Two of each color each month and a few colors
of my own choosing and two tops are
ready to go!
( Except for the small boo boo in the lower right on the
second one. Did you catch it?)
A small strip to finesse the center
stars, and the in progress zigzag borders will
be ready to add. I was able to make a large portion
of the zig zag border with pre existing blocks in
parts department so that is good.
and 5 more each of blue and yellow softer
granny squares got stitched up during a come
and go retreat weekend. The missing
yellow block has yet to turn up!
The blue square quilt was even finished
up into a nice twin size.
will get upsized this week and then to decide quilting!
No borders for these two since they been upsized!
The RSC hourglass was finally labeled and
paired up with it's fellow hourglass baby quilt.
I sure hope the happy couple and babe love it!
The little elephant lovies I found are so cute!
pieces! Yum yum they are colorful!!
Still 2 more week of sewing ahead before it is
time to think of our favorite winter season
holiday!
Stay safe and sew on !

Beautiful scrappy blocks especially those string stars. The quilts you are gifting will be loved, I'm sure.
ReplyDeleteThere is no gift like a hand made work in fabric. They continue to be enjoyed since the variety of fabric is so great! Yay scrap quilts!
DeleteYou are a quilting genie -- do you rub your sewing machine and all these beautiful strings magically appear so you can make bunches of different blocks? Just curious!
ReplyDeleteThe magic of the featherweight!! I do sew up string blocks in the winter but the RSC are just a good reason to sew more stars!!
DeleteWhat a lot of scrappy lovliness! I particularly like the blue on white squares - blue and white is always a favourite combo. I love the strippy stars too. xx
ReplyDeleteBlue and white always look so crisp together!
DeleteWOW so many beautiful quilts, Deb .Love all but especially the Stars and the blue and white ones.

ReplyDeleteOh, what fabulous scrappy projects! I love them all! Your star string quilt looks amazing :)
ReplyDeleteWow!! What a great batch of quilts. I love the scrappy string stars. I've always wanted to try a pineapple quilt. Yours is marvelously scrappy. Does all of the seams make it hard to quilt?
