Scrappy Wednesday

 


The blocks have found themselves set in two halves of a quilt top and I hope to get those stitched together today.  I have to search thru the shelves and totes to see if I have something for a border.  Yeah, one long seam on my OMG for April, but the border may take me the month - hate borders.

One small spot to fix on a commission piece (repairing an old quilt) and then I can play. 


 A drawer full of baggies with left overs from specific projects.  I like to keep the fabrics and parts together until the project is finished - in case there is an oops.  Now this drawer needs some serious clean out.


I pulled a couple of my miniature magazines with the hopes I can find something that will eat up those baggies.

It will be another beautiful, sunshiny day - so a walk outside with the furkids will be fit into the day.

Monday Making

 


There are a few more blue Carolina blocks to make.  I'm making 8 of each print background and white background, so after four months of RSC21 color there will be 64 blocks in the tote.


The strings and old phone book are pulled as I need to make some new strattas for the Birch Tree blocks.


I'm making these with some blocks having 3 or 2 or 1 stratta 'trees' of different widths.  Four of each RSC color  and my color is Gelato gradiates, so they add even more depth to these blocks.

I have some fabrics to wash with color catchers - afraid the reds will run, but maybe not.  AND the weather is fabulous today so there will be walk about with the furkids.

Hope you get to stitch today, linking up with MAKING MONDAY

 FROM OUR HOUSE TO YOURS

OMG April 2021

 


I failed to complete March's OMG - waiting on batting delivery, waiting on backing delivery, and family issues.  It will get done this month, but I am chosing another project as my April one monthly goal.


 These blocks have sat for a long time and I would like to get them into a flimsy.  Besides, I can use their tote for new blocks  that are in progress.  Isn't that the way it goes?

Please be sure to visit the LINK UP and see what others are working on.
