Design Wall

This week finds me working on Survivor, while waiting for April UFO to be
announced.  The was started awhile back in a workshop at San Diego Quilt show. 
The sample was in blues and pink, but I chose to make mine in blues and cheddar.

I am working on all the star blocks this week, but should make a small dent, before I have to change gears and get going on the April UFO. Hope it is an easy one!



Have a great week and Happy Sewing!

Design Wall Monday

 With Scrap Crystals behind me, I am now focusing on the Dowton Abby Mystery Quilt. I have the center medallion almost complete, and then the outside borders to go. I may change it up a bit and just add more of the 16 patches instead of the star, or I just may finish as is. This is my UFO for March and I should get it finished in time.

Design Wall Monday

This week I am still working on Scrap Crystals. I am a little farther along than the picture below. Just have the last two borders to sew on. I am really liking the blues and greens together.

Scrap Crystals.
Next up will be the Downton Abbey Mystery Quilt. I am a bit further along on this one, just two more steps to complete. Glad I have an easy one to finish and not another Bonnie Hunter Design! Need a break from all the pieces! Check back later this week for pictures of my progress.

March is here and it is a rainy day in San Diego. A very good thing to see as we really need the rain.

No Finishes this week. Making progress on my Scrap Crystals. Lots of pieces in this one!

A couple of adds to the stash also this week. Picked up the Downton Abbey fabric for the backing of the Downton Abbey Mystery Quilt, still to be completed. Also a couple of neutral/blue/red for my Dear Jane. Heading off to workshop in June, with Brenda in San Antonio, so need to get back to the DJ quilt.



The San Diego Quilt Run started last Friday, and I hope to hit a few of the stores, so I am sure I will have a few more adds for my next report.

Used this week: 16 yards.
Used YTD: 16 yards.
Purchased this week: 6 yards.
Purchased YTD: 25 yards
Net Fabric used in 2015: -9 yards.
