We are slowly settling into a routine here. It's actually a bit harder, since the only time the Dude is allowed at the pool is the time we avoided the pool in California. So my sewing time has to change, too. And there's a lot more distractions around with family wanting to do things! I'm managing to get some sewing time, though.
I've been binding Big Blue for fifteen minutes each day...but this week, only Thursday, Friday, Sunday and Tuesday. At a rate of 30ish" per day, I should be done with the binding in 15 days! Ugh...I should probably do more than 15 minutes a day.
Finished:
These, by the way, were the runner up layouts. I think the wave would look better with smaller blocks.
Three In Color Order bags for a friend. Yes, I skipped the colored top. Yes, you can't really tell that the one in the back is long and skinny...about the size of a wine bottle, coincidentally.
In-Progress:
Layer Cake Snowball Fight - corners are cut, layer cake hasn't arrived yet
Central Park Sudoku - slowly piecing the nine patches as leaders/enders
Nine-Patch Snowball - nine-patches are done, snowballs are in the works
Quilting:
Joining:
Picture-Perfect Polaroid Block Swap - blocks are due immediately after I get back to Oklahoma. Insane? Yes!

ReplyDeleteyou definitely picked the coolest layout for the blue quilt! great work!
ReplyDeletewow you have alot going on! RE: the binding - it's progress, and a bit of sit-down time each day - not a bad thing!
ReplyDeleteSo much going on - The camera fabric would be such fun in the Polaroid blocks don't you think?
ReplyDeleteWow, you've been really busy. Love the blue bow ties.
ReplyDeleteYou have a lot of projects in the works, but they all look great!
ReplyDeleteOh, I love how the bowties are the background color. I didn't even recognize that standard block until you mentioned it. The block usually isn't one of my favorites, but I love how you put multiple ones together!
