It's a great quilty Sunday - a little cool, just enough for socks...
and so many quilty projects to choose from - I can just wander around and find a different project waiting for me to play!
Remember this ? A lovely Madeira table runner... I am stitching away... gradually it is starting to look like it will look... and I finally got a good photo for color...
See how the underlayment fabric looks poofy through the cutwork? That will all be sewn down...
Lots more to do on that one !!!! And I have decided to add some beading after all the stitching is done.
But - I can only work on this detail stuff for so long and then I need to power sew and I yearn for bright color...this little charity quilt filled both needs - the center fabric is African fabric that someone brought back from a medical mission in Africa - and donated it for us to make quilts that will go on another medical mission - too fun ! Don't you love these Caribbean colors? I do.
And I finally got this quilt photographed - those are 5 inch pineapples, made from a Bonnie Hunter pattern . . it was really really fun !
And, being quilted, one of the several tops that is a result of my manic war on scraps lately - I am just making scrap sections, like these 16 patch units, and then finding places to put them in quilts later - fun, fun! Like seeing a history of all my sewing laid out before me !
Well, nothing is getting done sitting here, now, is it !!!!
Thanks for reading my quilty ramblings...
Kate
