Got caught up on the Calendar Quilt . Yes was a few weeks behind!
It is ready for me to begin week 2 of June now!! YES!
I sewed up the Watermelon/Crow sqs with sashing.
Such a pretty yellow with tiny red dots in there too.
Makes me think sunshine.
I will use it also as border around outside of the blocks …then thinking a red and maybe a black.
Keeping it simple. Will work on it some more later this week.
I decided on a wool project for my "doctor office waits" project! Ha!!
Decided what I wanted drawn on wax paper, cut out, pressed on the wools, cut out and glue tacked to my black wool backing!!
Was a job!! I used wool and wool felt I had on hand already felted.
As of now not sure what I will do with it..pilla , penny rug or wall hanging.
Colors are not coming out good on pics.
When I get some of the thread work done will take pic outside .
If I do not get it done with all Aunt Dot’s appts will use for DH’s procedure on the 24th!!;-)
Today will be the first 2-3 hour long one . We leave about 11:30 AM.
I have in my tote the wool project ready with thread and needles.
Also a book or word search if I want a rest from stitching, my water and snacks!!
Just wish I still had my small thermos, I would take my afternoon tea with me!!;-)
I am glad you are sewing! I have been trying to organize my sewing room and I will get to sew too! :)

So, you got to sew and didn't burst. Thank goodness for that haha. You got lots done, too. Those wool projects are great - perfect handwork for waiting at the dr. office.
ReplyDeleteThe yellow sashing was a great choice for the watermelon quilt - such a happy colour.
That's a fantastic effort. I wish I had acheived half that much. Your wool project is delightful.
ReplyDeleteHappy Stitching...Ann :)
