Design Wall Monday

This is the UFO from Liz for the month.  I had these bulls eye blocks that needed to be made into a quilt.  First, I don't like making them.  They were a swap many years ago, I only had 6.  So, how to set them.  I used fabrics I had in the 30's lines and made do with what I had.  Not the prettiest of quilts, but....

I'm playing with adding some applique to the center blocks, but am not sure yet if I want to go to that trouble.  I just want this one done.  I found some green fabric to add a border and we will see how that goes from there.  If that is not enough, then I'll do piano keys with my 30's scraps.

Stash Report

Judy, thanks for keeping us accountable.

I barely sewed this week.  We had a girl scout camp from 5-9 and I was so exhausted that the only things that got done were what had to be done.
Dad also had surgery to put in a wound vac this week and all the pre-op stuff takes so much time....

Used this Week: 0.05 yards
Used year to Date: 112.37 yards
Added this Week: 0.00 yards
Added Year to Date: 37.25 yards
Monthly usage: 28.58 yards
Net Used for 2013: 66.62 yards

Sampler Society BOM

This is the "Iris" block for the Samper Society BOM of blocks with flower names.  Lots of pieces, but it goes together fairly easy.

I have one more block "Thistle" to complete to have this set of sampler blocks done. 

Then comes the setting and finishing.

I hope to do this for an Aunt of mine.

Zinnia done

This block was hard for me.  I don't know why, but it was.  I cut wrong, I sewed wrong, but I finished it.  I loved the way she did the smaller qst process.  She used hst to sew to the base.  It was interesting and one moer of the sampler society blocks. 

2 more and I'll be caught up and can put them together.

"F" blocks done

The alphabet BOM is "Friday the Thirteenth".
I had 2 to make to be up to date and got them done today.

This one is mine.  I think I would like the outside another floral, but this will do just fine. 

This is for Lynne and I made sure the background fabric was not on the outside.  I like it better.

Design Wall Monday

The main design wall can't be shown, since it is a mystery.  But, my design cutrains are there.  Two projects on them.  The left is the sampler with flower names blocks.  I have 3 more to do and then I can put that together.  The one on the right is the long term bonus triangle block.  I really like this one.

Happy Father's Day!

Wishing all the Fathers out there a wonderful fun filled day.

I'm not sure what we are doing.  My Dad is still not up to going out to eat, and DH is still sleeping.  We shall see what happens as the day progresses.
