Design Wall Monday

 This week I am continuing to work on Blocks for Autumn Love, along with cutting out another charity quilt. My goal is to try to complete at least 6 charity quilts this year, hopefully more, all from my stash. 



Along with that I have more Microwave bowls cut out and ready to put together.

Winter Blues in black is currently on hold, as I have some unsewing to do. Seems I forgot an entire step that included sashing and cornerstones. I was wondering why it was much smaller than it was supposed to be.😬 Unsewing will happen in the evenings this week, while watching TV!

Sunday Stash Report

 A finish this week and a small visitor. This week I was able to finish up on the charity quilt below. All fabrics are from my stash, leftovers from a quilt that I made one of my Granddaughters a couple of years ago. This will be quilting and go to Arizona Quilts for Kids.

I also completed the four harvest star blocks for Autum Love by Lori Holt. These took me almost an entire day to put together, but turned out so cute.

We have had a visitor for the past few days, and she goes home on Tuesday to her family. Xena has been so fun to have around and is a sweet dog.

Happy Memorial Day! Thank you to all who have served!

Winter Blues in Black remains on the desing wall this week, but I am pushing to get it finished by the end of the week. 

I have also pulled out the next blocks for Autumn Love. I will be working on finishing blocks for April, and then May blocks. I have also pulled out blocks to prep for June as it is only days away. April blocks below are Autumn words and 4 harvest star blocks.

 Still working on the center of Winter Blues. Sewing all these 4" blocks together is taking some time. In between I am sewing the border units together. Hope to get this completed soon!


On the Longarm is Sandi's Michigan quilt, aka Koastline. Have just the leaves to finish up and then it will be off to her next week.

Enjoy the holiday weekend!
