I finished my “blue” project for January which was to get the last of these three Quilts for Kids kits done, so now I can turn them in at next month’s workshop. I feel so good to finally get them finished.
I made the second 24″ Elizabeth Hartman block for North Stars. Since I’m only doing a small 4-block quilt, the blocks are now half-done! They take a long time to cut & sew, so one a week is good progress.
In weekly quilt group, we finished our Cascade quilt tops this week. We all made the same pattern but challenged ourselves to use patterned fabric we had on hand. We started these before my accident & the move, when I had access to all my fabric. LOL I had these fat quarters of Hawaiian fabric that a friend brought me from Hawaii several years ago for my birthday & they’ve been waiting for the “perfect” project. There weren’t enough for all the diamonds, so I broke into a solid fat quarter pack I had, thus keeping with the challenge & only purchasing background.
So that’s my sewing week & that wraps up January. Sounds like February is pink & I just cut out my next breast cancer awareness quilt this week, so I have the perfect project for the month!
love all you blue projects! especially your whale! looks like he took a lot of patience to complete him.
beautiful quilts,the solids work well with the diamond blocks, congratulations on your finishes
