Monday Making

Three clues to prove a quilter lives here:

Wall quilt.

Sofa quilt.

Sewing machine.

:)

This is hanging in my sewing room

trying to GROW.

It stares at me, waiting for the day when I'll answer the question:

Should I continue making this block BIGGER???

Or....

Make some more blocks similar and sew them together??

Aah the wonderful scrappy kind of questions 

that keep our minds on HAPPY things!

Knitting is my side line.

It keeps my hands busy in waiting rooms and meetings.

I love this pattern that is so striking and so simple.

I found it HERE on ravelry.

These were made a few weeks ago for my twin grand babies

already TWO months old!

Today I am quilting.

Every month I TRY to pick up a small charity quilt at my local quilt guild.

It gives me some practice quilting

and it also makes me feel good!

It feels good to give quilts away, right??

This pretty quilt was pieced by someone else.

I get to FINISH it!

In ONE week I FINALLY added the sashings and cornerstones

to my Sally Post Floral quilt.

The finished blocks had been sitting idle for a while now.

PLUS....

Drum roll please....

I BEGAN quilting.

Emphasis on BEGAN.    :)

Finishing a quilt top

and getting the quilting started in one week

is a minor miracle for me.

Let's not talk about how LONG it took to get 

all those appliqued squares completed.

I DO MISS that quiet evening activity.

What are YOU making this week???
