Were does the time go. I had planned on posting the items I worked at retreat later in the week, and before I know it a couple of weeks have past.
Anyway here is what I worked on that weekend. I started a new project. there nothing more fun than staring something new. I know some people would say finishing, but if you look around my sewing room I defiantly like starting better.
This one will be a wedding gift, but I have lots of time the wedding not until 2014. I knew that the bride loves green and white so decided to make a modern square in a square quilt using 4 greens, 1 blue and 1 white. I completed the blocks but think I will put this away for a bit.
I also took a few Farmer wife blocks, I had per cut but this didn't work the best for me as I had made a couple of cutting errors so only finished 2 blocks at retreat. Once I was home I able quickly finish the cutting I needed and finish 2 more.
I had a mental block on my flower quilt, I think it had sat in the same state for over a year. I got a block on the applique border. So I was able to add the plain border that goes before the applique one, and then with a little help for one of the ladies get past my metal block and start adding the steams. Not sure why this was such a block but am happy to be past in now.
I have not done much sewing since I have been back, the last couple of weeks the weather turned nice and I have been busy outside.
