Purple is moving right along . The scrap drawer and bag
are sorted and cut into strips and squares, so the purple
hoard is under control. It was much smaller
in volume than the other colors so the trimming
took just one evening.
Just strips left here
and the shelf stash is organized and stable.
A few garlic knots later, and
Finally got the large log cabin
pinned and ready to quilt,
but guess who arrived early!!
A beautiful bouncing baby girl!
The quilt will get stitched up this
week and my DD will deliver the family set
next week. Hopefully, I work well under pressure!!
Stitched up an impressive pile of purple for
the log cabin and with a strong dose of sewjo,
a purple, twin sized log cabin is born!
Now back to quilting that
log cabin and making backs for all those battings
prepared last week!
Busy, busy not time to rest ,
a jam packed schedule is the best !
Stay safe and sew on !

Great job in processing your purples. Sometimes I find I do better with a deadline -- I hope it works for you too.
ReplyDeleteI hope so, even self imposed deadlines work for me sometimes!
DeleteIt must feel great to have an empty scrap bag! Your purple log cabin looks great.
ReplyDeleteIt sure does and one small stack and a nearly empty drawer. I only have a drawer of orange scraps so I should be flying thru May!
DeleteLove that purple log cabin quilt. Looks like you have purple completely under control. I don't have as much purple as some other colors either. Same with the orange for this month - just not as much to choose from. I probably should revisit pink and green every other month because those are the drawers always overflowing.
ReplyDeleteMe too, not much orange . I will revisit either green or blue since they are overflowing. Is batik considered a color? I have 2 bags of those bits!
DeleteWow! That's the way to use up the scraps. Congratulations on a new baby girls!
ReplyDeleteThanks! The log cabins do burn thru scraps nicely but I always find more! They must multiply at night !
Deletecongrats on the new baby and awesome that your purple is under control! much easier to use when all sorted!
ReplyDeleteIt so is! I always put off cutting scraps up and sorting, thinking that I will use it more if it is in its natural state. It really makes me see how many scraps I have! Gotta get sewing!!
DeleteI love your purple log cabin quilt. One of my favorite colors. Good luck on all of your projects this week. You have been making great progress. Congrats on the new baby too!
ReplyDeleteThanks! I got them done and labelled , woot woot!
DeleteWow you sure tamed that scrap drawer! Love the purple blocks and that log cabin. Thanks for sharing on my weekly show and tell Wednesday Wait Loss.
