Progress is made, at least some. More blocks were added to the baby quilt I was working on (see previous post). More scraps were used. I'd like to finish it (at least the flimsy) before St Anne's meeting Thursday. Three blocks to go.
October is behind us. Does that put us in the Winter months? I think it does. The skies have been foggy in the mornings - a thick fog that doesn't go away until near noon. So strange for us here in SoCal. I've gotten the backing for Project H which was October's UFO. Designed by Shelly Pagliai of Prairie Moon Quilts for a special retreat. She made it into mostly 12" blocks, but I didn't want such a big quilt, so I made my blocks to be 6" finished blocks instead. Now to find batting that fits it. It's sad that there is only one quilt store in our city, and Riverside has over 325K citizens. We use to have 4 at one time. Makes shopping harder for us quilters who want to see the fabric we are buying. Here's the quilt flimsy:
Also, I'm back working on another baby quilt for St. Anne's. Piecing the 9 1/2" blocks now, and putting them up on my design wall as I make some progress.
Blessings,
I have a finish that comes 19 years after its start. My dear 13 year-old niece came for a week visit and we decided to make a quilt. I made the blocks and let her design the quilt. It was mostly blue and yellow as they were her favorite colors then. We finished the quilt and she left it with me to quilt. Nineteen years ago I was a very beginner quilter and I didn't have money to have it long armed. So it sat.
Spurred on by my joining Dive into UFOs in 2025 (on Facebook) and sponsored by( crazymoosefabrics.com on web and Facebook), I finally got back to it.
