First a stash report. DDIL took 1.9 yds from my stash to make a quilt for her friend. I used .25 to make favors for the ladies at retreat - bookmarks. Then I made a sample log cabin with the new trim tool I bought - actually bought two - a regular 4" log cabin ruler and a curvy log cabin one. Works great as you just estimate the width of the strip and have no exact cutting to do except for the center square. Great for scraps. Here's my first 4" from scraps as a test and new YTD total is 44.15 yards.
In the slow stitching I'm finishing that Anna's Garden block - only have the purple flower now to finish hand stitching. Then there are more hexies to work on. Glad I got two more applique started on the road to prepping at the quilt retreat. I'll show those later.
On my design wall I have the start of another baby quilt - two rows so far. Here's the cute fabric Katy made a quilt out of and introduced me to this collection. It's by Riley Blake and called "Jeep".
This week I missed a couple of days of sewing - after three days of intensive sewing my quilting mojo is exhausted. So now the stats look like this:
15 minute days/week = 5/7 days
15 minute days/May = 24/25 days
15 minute days/2019 = 132/145
Success rate = 97.78%
Did you get to hand sew today?
I'm linking to Slow Sunday Stitching , Sunday Stash, 15 Minutes to Stitch in 2019, Oh Scrap! and Design Wall Monday.
Have a blessed week.
Have a blessed week.
Love the log cabin block. Sewing mojo does have a limit, hopefully your couple of days off got yours all ready for a good week.
ReplyDeleteCloudy and grey skies day after day can make one a bit glum. Hopefully the sun shines for you soon. The log cabin tool looks interesting. It sounds as if you have a lot of lovely sewing projects in the works.
ReplyDeleteEnjoy your stitching...look forward to seeing your hexies!
ReplyDeleteWow Angie, you managed to get heaps done. Love the log cabin block. Perhaps I suld use up some of my strips. Funny how you forget a block and then they are brought back into your thinking. Not sure if that makes sense. Hugs
