Sewing on!!

 Lots of sewing going on here in

the sewing room but lots of scraps

still to stitch up!!

The borders for the RSC string stars

are coming along. 



 Now I just need to 

make adjustments to make them fit.



Never an easy task but I can do hard things!


This morning I am working on a triangle 

color quilt. This is one of my go to patterns.

 It is oddly satisfying to 

mark off each square as I complete it. 




I use colored reinforcements on a 

sheet cover. I have used wipe off 

marker in the past too.  The sheet 

protector preserves the pattern and 

keeps it from getting so wrinkly.  

This design is a great scrap burner

but scraps and coat hangers always 

multiply at night, so I have no shortage!

Speaking of hangers, the quilt vault is 

turning over but not really decreasing too much. 



Four string stars have come in and out. 

Three are out for quilting with double batting

and one is ready for binding.  I have added

two softer granny squares and done an 

in and out with the red postage stamp top. 

So really I seem to be whittling it down a bit. 

I have four pinned and ready so I should get quilting!



Big news here, I ordered and received a new "electronic"

foot for my featherweight machine. 

Woot woot.  My original feet were frequently failing,

usually at retreats. I would have to open them up 

and put the screw back on the switch. So this new 

foot will be my traveling foot!  


I hear my scraps calling so ...

Stay safe and sew on !!
