Design Wall

 


On my design wall this week is Spooktacular Stars. This is a small quilt and hopefully will be finished up pretty quickly. Next up will be finishing Vintage Valentine. I will be looking for some fabrics for the sashing and border. I am not all that happy with the ones that came with the BOM. Hopefully I can find something a little closer to the original.


Enjoy the rest of the week!

Design Wall


There have been some pretty funny April Fools jokes going around. Hope you did not get caught up in one! On my design wall this week is another UFO, Sew Gifted. This was a mystery box from Fat Quarter Quilt Shop in 2022. I am finally getting around to putting this one together. It finishes at 44x59 and primarily uses two charm packs and background yardage. The orginal had a bluish background, that I changed to a white snoflake. Hoping to finish this one up this week.



On the Longarm, is the last of the stack of charity quilts that I am quilting for Sunrise Stitchers. Next up will be a couple of my own charity quilts, and the Bats and Pumpkins Tabletopper.
Enjoy the first day of April!

 Now that all the items are finished for the Boutique, I am back to working on the Pumpkins and Bats quilt. Twelve more pumpkin blocks to paper piece and then it will all go together. Hope to have this one as a finish for the week. I am also working on cutting out the next charity quilt that will be my Tuesday Sewing group project. AND I always have a quilt on the longarm to complete. Never a dull moment in my sewing room. How about you??
