This week, I will be working on the alternate blocks above for Fairy Dust, along with cutting out the remaining blocks. This is sure to keep me busy in between the quilting of my Monster quilt. Hope to have all done by the end of the week.

Happy Sewing!

This week I am back to working on Fairy Dust. Blocks 7 and 8 are almost complete, just need to get the finishing friendship stars on them.

On the long arm this week is my Monster Quilt. This quilt was actually finished in 2011, I just needed to embroider the lettering in the border. Fast forward to 2024 and lettering is finished and this is finally ready to quilt. It will be custom, so may be on the machine for awhile!

Enjoy the rest of the week!

 

Stash Report

Hope all the Dad's out there are enjoying their special day!

A small finish this week, Scary Faces. Super cute and a fast pattern to put together. This will be quilted up after the Monster Quilt is done.

While on the road I was able to visit a quilt shop in Sturgis, called Fabric Junction, and one in Custer called The Quilted Buffalo. Yes, there were some additions to the stash.

These were on sale and will use for backing.

We are back from our road trip to the Black Hills in South Dakota. This time we stayed in Deadwood and visited a few places that we missed on our trip there last summer. We went to Custer State Park and drove the Needles highway and the wildlife road where we saw buffalo, deer and lots of prarire dogs. We also took a tour of Jewel cave, visited Sturgis, and hiked in Spearfish Canyon. The weather was beautiful, we had a great time and I did get to visit a couple of quilt shops! Stay tuned for Sunday's Stash report to see what I picked up.

Buffalo Jam on the road.

Not much sewing the last 10 days, but this week I am back at it, working on Scary Faces another Fat Quarter Spooky box that was purchased awhile ago. This will be a quick and fun finish and then back to the paper piecing of Fariy Duster.

Have a great week!
