I’m still just sewing slow & steady with the healing fractured hand, but I pulled out RSC2024 project #5 to see where I was on blocks. I still had the four red blocks I missed early on, so made these Lori Holt wonky FPP hearts. I counted & laid it out on my design wall & found that if I made a blue & purple set, I would have enough for the size I’m planning.
I made those & still have a few pieces left from the layer cakes for another project. It’s all on my wall now, so I can start the webbing.
The other big win was my first tote bag! I wanted a little larger (small) tote for church than the one I have been using & haven’t found one, so I decided I could make my own. I’ve been looking at online free patterns & tutorials, & settled on this one. It made a bag 8x10x4, which is perfect for what I wanted & used fabric from my stash, so it was free! Hee, hee! I love that word FQ I got a long time ago & have only used a little bit for some bookmarks & it’s never worked for anything else, so it is perfect for this. The straps are leftover backing trimmings.
Those hearts are fun! I’ll enjoy seeing how the quilt top goes together. And I love your tote bag – looks like a great size!
