One more block to go…

#positivitiesquilt

Waaay back in the before times of 2023, I signed up for/purchased a block of the month quilt from stitched in color and had every intention (ha!) of making a block each month. How hard could that be? Of course the best laid plans of quilters always intercept life and I didn’t pick up the bulk of the sewing until this fall…my new goal is to complete the top by the time we go to our neighborhood New Years Eve gathering…one set of blocks left to make…can she do it?

Aaaand go!

Getting to the point

Still working on my #positivitiesquilt These blocks are part of Julys instructions (yes I’m aware it’s December). My goal is to finish by the end of the year.

I’m particularly happy with these points as this kind of detail is not always my strong suit!

Can’t wait to see it finished.

What are you working on for the end of the year?

Happy New Year 2024!

Hello friends! It’s been 3xx since my last post 🤣🤣🤣. Happy making in 2024.

To celebrate and kick off the year right, I’ve made a mini-bag for Charlie’s golf bag (and replaced the Velcro on a previous make-never have seen Velcro wear out!) for him to store his tiny things in.

With that as a warm up…I’ve commenced the “Postcards from Sweden” quilt I’d planned for last year. This quilt was designed by Kelly Liddle for Jeli Quilts.  I am very excited to get this one made up because A-It’s very pretty and cheerful and B- I purchased the kit from Craftsy (remember them) somewhere around 2017 (!) so happy to be actually working on it! Here’s the photo from the pattern:

Hoping it will chase the gloom away on these dreary New England winter days! 

Happy Making!
