Greetings! I hope everyone out there is staying nice and
cool inside. Oh, unless you are up north
where there are snow storms happening – I hope you folks are staying inside and
warm!
I
got all my circles done - all 42 of them.
After about 2 dozen, I got into a rhythm and I think the remainder came
out better. Seeing all 42 on the wall,
laid out in rows of 7 X 6, I didn’t like it.
So I took 7 of them out and made it 5 X 7, and I think it looks loads
better –
Maybe
I will figure out some sort of small companion wall hanging for the other 7
blocks.
It’s
hard to tell, but because there are Butterflies and Bamboo in the prints, that
is what I am calling it. Now I am trying
to figure out what to make a border out of – since this was a charm pack, I don’t
have any yardage of those fabrics, and I really don’t feel like going out on a
hunt for them, not to mention I probably couldn’t afford to buy it right now
anyway. So I will be rummaging through
the old stash for a couple of days to hopefully find something that looks good
with it. I am itching to start something
else, but lately I have been trying to finish a project before moving on.
Other
than that, I have just been helping Layla with her quilt – we are onto the
border now, and she is going to have to piece part of it. I think she kind of lost her momentum by
finishing up all the 9 patches so quickly last week. Fingers crossed we will have it done next
week, and in time to take to Janet the longarmer when I go to pick something up
soon.
Hope
all is well you. Thanks for stopping by!
Love it!
