It is almost time for another retreat weekend.
Perfect timing to review the leftovers from the
last sewing holiday!
The little flannel teddy bear still needs
to have his head attached.
I will have to find some more flannels for him.
Number five on the list from the last retreat
is the curved nine patch.
It was at the end of my work list.
I did get a layout done. Now I just need to decide on an
inner border or not and then join it together so that one
will be second on the list for the next retreat.
The other items left over were basically filler items.
I always take a few extras!
I had a big bag of crumb blocks and
stars I was going to join together.
They are actually still in the retreat
bag so less packing for me!
I had also a bag of pre-sorted
three and a half inch block
supplies to make a colour wash quilt.
They too, were still in the retreat bag.
It looks like I will add in some
Halloween fabrics to cut and compile.
I'm sure there are some other projects I can take along.
I like that I've almost got my next retreat ready to go!
The format for this retreat is a come and go.
We go and sew all day.
Then we all leave to sleep in our own beds
and return the next morning for more sewing.
This really seems to cut down on the amount of packing,
clothing and bedding.
When you forget sewing supplies, you have
that night to pick them up!
It is definitely a win-win for everyone involved!
Stay safe and sew on!
Love the curved 9 patch. What size squares did you use?
ReplyDeletethe block is cut 8 1/2. Not sure what size squares, it has been aging quite a while. I search out the pattern!
