Oh hey, look at that. Progress on things I can share! Well, mostly. I did finish a quilt this week, but can’t share it yet since it’s a gift. Nina was on hand to help with quality control during quilting, though.
I spent last night catching up on the My Favorite Things blocks from SewHooked.com. I had June, July and August blocks to do, but the August block was glitter, which… no. I cannot in good conscience even imply that I even tolerate glitter, so I will certainly not commit to calling it a favorite thing.
So I made a wineglass block instead. The actual block pattern is from a different designer. Maybe I should have put a cat in there instead, but the wineglass was easier to piece.
For the record, there was no wine involved in this little incident (but there may have been rum afterwards). That seam gauge block was not my favorite!
Next up is working on another pattern for The Stitch- it’s another oldie but a goodie!
I have also seen through flower pins. It amazes me that it doesn’t break the needle! Great progress this week, and I’m with you on glitter. I’d have to make a Diet Coke block instead, though 😉
yes, the seam gauge looks like a beast! better the flower than your finger? and i’m definitely with you on the wine block!
Love your changes to the blocks! Wine is definitely a must with quiltmaking!
Forgot to say that I love the photo of Nina. You should get a frame and put the photo on your desk. 😉
