I like Thursdays

I like to re-purpose and this past week I've done a bit of that.

 This block has scraps of black and a paisley I saved from long ago.

Then I took an old pillowcase from my rag bag and cut out 8 squares and made that block into a twinkle star for a new project (New Project for 6and6 in 2018).

Then I pulled out my scrap bag of batiks and hand dyes and started this crumb block:

I have an idea for this one, too, however this is a one block quickie.

How about you?  Have any likes you want to share?  Leave a comment. I'd like to know.  Also, you can see other I Like Thursdays at Lee Anna's.

6and6 in 2018 Progress - August

It's time to report on my challenge progress.  Not much got done in August.  It was a month too full of summer. I quilted a baby quilt from a top my mom made.

I made two blocks for a new project I started earlier in the year (Meadow by Jen Kingwell)
  and 

I also quilted another for mom:

This is a preemie quilt.

I didn't even pull out the UFO designated for the month.  So that's it for August goals.

I'm not sure I'll do much better in September as I"m going away for a quilt retreat in Missouri and have babysitting duty each weekday hence.  I"m looking forward to it. My ufo to work on in September is #9.  I have to assemble the quilt top and add two borders. All the blocks are done.

Thatis it for reporting on August. Do visit Meredithe and Anne's 6and6in2018  and also Judy's UFO challenge - both to which I'm linking.  Blessings!

I'm Giving a Whoop

because I finally figured out how to make my "something big" I started to make the other day actually get bigger with what I have on hand.

Life is good.
