Weekly Progress - Airplane Germs

Well, it was inevitable with 24+ hours in airplanes. I came down with a head cold of sorts and spent the last week sleeping it off and drinking tea. So not that much got done in the sewing room.

Spin Cycle - added one more block...of course, the one that Bad Kitty is sitting on.

At that block, I ran out of square-in-a-square pieces, so it was time to start chain piecing some more. Woohoo.

Weekly Churn Dash - this was from one of my very first projects, a purse that I put together totally wrong and never fixed. It's a good reminder of how far I've come!

And I stitched down the applique on Goodnight Monkey, and started prepping the back. I'm using a panel and the leftover pieces from the front.

And, very exciting for the Dude - we're spending Spring Break cleaning and organizing closets, which includes swapping out some of my sewing room shelving. So far, his room is looking a lot better...and the rest of the house is looking a lot worse.

  1. Good luck with the spring cleaning. I should do that, but there's just not enough time. Spin Cycle is looking good. Hope you get some more time to sew this week.

  2. Ugh, so sorry about the cold. Hope your feeling better. I'm liking your weekly churn dash blocks. I think it's a great idea. Can't wait to see the rest of your spin cycle blocks. So pretty, even with the kitty on top.

  3. Sorry about your cold...yuck. I recommend hot tea, with lemon and sugar, and a shot of dark rum. Works every time. Your Spin Cycle quilt is just beautiful - I am in love with your colour choices...

  4. No quilt is worthy until it has the KittyButt stamp of approval. : ) I like your color choices - very elegant but not loud.

  9. Last time I was on a plane I caught something too! And my flight was only one hour... Your churn dash is sweet. The Spin Cycle sure is looking purty. I love the colors. (I think I say that every time!)
