Design Wall Monday

Happy Monday! 

December is winding down fast. It is hard to believe it will be  New Years Eve tomorrow and we will start a new decade on Wednesday. On my design wall this week is the finished half square triangles for BH Mystery, and finished block for Ella Marie Deacon Quilt.

Up next are more 6 more blocks for the EMD Quilt while waiting for Bonnie to release the next clue.

Happy Sewing!

Stash Report

This will be the last Stash Report for 2019! Hard to believe that 2020 is just a few days away. Hope that the last decade was good for you!

No finishes to report- just a few works in progress. Working on Clue #5 for Bonnie Hunters Frolic Mystery. This will go into 2020 and will hopefully be my first finish for the new year. It is also on my UFO list which you can find here.

Below are Clue 5 half square triangles all ready to sew together.

Also in the works are two blocks from Ella Marie Deacon Quilt. One more block done, another almost there for month 3. This week will be for catching up.

Strips for Clue 2 and Clue 3 were pulled mostly from my strip box, the raspberry strips were cut from yardage. Hope to use up all my stash for this quilt. There is still time for you to join in. Check it out here.

Check back to see if I am making any progress! Nine days left until Christmas!

Stash Report

Back from San Diego! A quick trip but, had a great time with family and friends. We celebrated an early Christmas and my DD gave me some fun sewing gifts below. 

Liberty of London pincushion and sewing roll.

Sewing roll- great for traveling!

Also received a pincushion book and some lavender scented filler. Fun projects to make!

My friend Sandi, over at Kwiltnkats, gifted me with two fun sewing ornaments.

On to my stash report. Only adds this week, with purchases from Memory Lane Quilt Shop. Chris will be closing her shop at the end of December, so there is still time to get some great bargains.
