Design Wall Monday

It is a snowy Monday here in Mammoth Lakes. A great day to stay in and get some sewing done.
Here are the DJ blocks that I completed today! We hope to get out and ski tomorrow.

Here are more completed DJ Blocks, with more in the works.



With all the snow coming later this week, I should be able to get quite a few done.

Have a great week!

Design Wall Monday

On Ringo Lake is ready to sew into rows. All laid out on the floor, way to big for my design wall! This is another of Bonnie's quilts where you need to be careful of  laying out all the pieces correctly and to also make sure they do not get turned during sewing. 

ORL ready to sew the rows together!
I am really happy with this mystery and the way it is all coming together.  On Ringo Lake Mystery is now retired, but you can purchase the pattern on Bonnie's Blog.  Check back soon to see my progress and the completed quilt!
