Above is a 3yard quilt that I am working on this week. Coffee fabrics were picked out by DH at the last Rusty Barn Quilt Show. I needed a fast finish this week to get my sewing mojo going. All that is needed is sewing blocks together and adding two borders! Done!

Also on the sewing table are more of the string blocks for Sandcastle. I have about 15 done, need 64 total. Hope to make more progress this week on these blocks.

Happy Sewing!

This is my last UFO for 2024, Acorn Love, a pattern by Lori Holt. Fabrics are all pulled and I will be cutting and hopefully sewing it up this week.

My second to last UFO is to use up the Fish school blocks made in 2021 from Bonnie Hunters Leader and Ender project. I have over 100 blocks made, they finish at 3.5". I will need to make some string pieced blocks to make the quilt above, called Kismet.

As  always, lots of projects in the works in my sewing room!

Stash Report

Yes, a finish happened this week. The final borders of Heart and Hand were sewn on and now after 4 years this one is finished! Backing is ready and it will go into my quilting que.

These fabrics were purchased for a project called Garnets and Lilies by Kim Diehl. DH had purchased the fat quarter bundle for me back in August, but I needed a couple more fabrics to make the quilt.

This will be  UFO for next year, and yes I am already thinking about projects I want to complete in 2025. I still have two more UFO's that I will be finishing up for 2024.
