Some of This; Some of That

First the stash report. Made 2 baby quilt tops and found a backing for them. Used .25 for binding one of them. Used .10 for bias for Love entwined and .15 for SLOL, so that's 3.70 yards out this week.  This gives me a YTD total of 16.37 yds. Closer still to the 20 yds out I need to meet my goal.

Here's my progress on Love Entwined:

Doesn't look like much for 3 days of work.  Those 3/32nd bias stems take a while to make. Biggest are 1/8th. But I'm done with that part of the bouquet, and I was able to add the hearts. Now to add the vase, then the flowers.

I also got a bit done on SLOL.

Here it is on my design floor as this is much bigger than I thought.  I'll have to see if I'm going to make all of it.  It's already 50" wide.

Off to hand applique some more on my Anna's Garden block. Hope you got to quilt today.  I'm linking to Oh Scrap, Sunday Stash, Slow Sunday Stitching, BOMs Away, Design Wall Monday and a couple of others. You can check my tab under more in the header to see who else.

Have a wonderful week.

Finished Block and Top

I have been working on WIPs. In fact this one below is four years old, just hadn't done anything with it.  It was only yardage when I was gifted it. Now it's quilted and bound.

and off to the Mommy & Me Clinic for a newborn.

The yardage was squares serged together. This wouldn't have been a problem except the white squares are chenille and it's very difficult to quilt through those corners.  Thus the simple quilting on this top. The batting said it could be quilted up to 8" apart, so I'm okay there. For a change, the cotton fabric is the back and the flannel is the top, but baby's mom can use whichever side she wants up. Measures 36 by 42".

As for my finished RSC 2018 March block - we were to use green.  I had a green piece with pink and some baby pink print, so that's what I used.

When I got it all done, the pink subdued the center green so much, maybe I should call this the pink block - lol.

I'm linking to Angela's ScrapHappy Saturday, Sarah's Can I Get a Whoop, Whoop?, Amanda's Finish it Up Fridays, Myra's Finished or Not Friday's, Michele's Let's Make Baby Quilts, and Muv's Free Motion Mavericks.

Have a quilty weekend. It's gently raining here. We are blessed.

Late Thursday Report

Today was such a busy day! I meant to post for "I Like Thursdays" yesterday but was too busy getting ready for today!

So while we have cold mornings, the days continue to get warm for we have low 70s in the afternoon. We're back to lovely blue skies and clouds in the distance.

And from the garden - a couple of weeks ago I sent some pomelos to a few of our out of state family.  DGS#3's mom sent me this great photo: The pomelo is a grandparent of the grapefruit.  They may look like grapefruits, but they aren't acidic - they're sweet and so tasty. While they look large - they have a large rind.  One has to work to get to the yummy fruit, but it's worth it. This year we had a bumper crop.  Last year, there were only about 9-12 of them.

Hope you get to quilt this weekend.  Stay warm and safe those of you back East.
