Some of This, Some of That 6/9/19

Stash report:  Finished another baby quilt top, but I can't count any of that square yard as it all came out of three donations I got for St. Anne's.
The panel block in the center is a printed copy of a illustration done by Mabel Lucie Attwal, (4 June 1879 – 5 November 1964), a British illustrator and comics artist. She was known for her cute, nostalgic drawings of children, based on her daughter, Peggy. - from Wikipedia.  Believe this one was from the 40s or 50s and printed for Woodrow Studios in TN.  The center blocks are those made from Jenny Doan's Super Easy Hour Glass tutorial. The outer border came from an idea by Katy Quilts.  I love this layout as it eliminates a lot of bulk in the corners when you sew the HSTs together.

The only thing I can claim for destashing is the 0.2 yd I used for the background of my studio wall hanging and the pink and blue solid border in the top (.11 yd).  New YTD destashing is at 44.46 yards

Again I didn't quilt/sew for two days last week - the mojo was trying to escape again. I did a lot of Grand kids interaction and that was fun.  So here's a few snapshots of them:
proud dad sent this


played miniature golf
went to the March Air Museum  - saw this stratofortress (B-52) and many other planes.

Toured Flabob Airport -seventh oldest surviving airport in California - founded in 1925.
It was a busy week. I'm linking to Design Wall Monday.  Stay cool.

Stud is now...

Studio - my string project for Humble Quilts' string along.
more string elements to add - possibly some coloring, too.

Baby Quilts are Addictive

New babies mean new quilts. St. Anne's is always making baby quilts.  We experimented with Jenny Doan's super easy hourglass video and made a few.  Here's how I've laid them out. Another border of HSTs will finish it off:

All fabric used was scraps. The corners I just snowballed with a square that would give me the same size triangle as the light fabric in the hourglasses.  The medallion was a donated square.

This one is for my neighbor. Half way done with the center.

Back to piecing.  I'm linking to Oh, Scrap!, Finished or not Friday, Can I get a Whoop, Whoop?, and Let's Make Baby Quilts .  Have a great weekend.

Progrees is Made

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...
