Well, I got more done than I thought I would considering I was at the beach last week.
My biggies for the week were Block #3 for Embroidery 101...
Block #5 (not counting the challenge block) for Skill Builder Sampler...
and my center design for my red and white hexie quilt.
I also did some work on my Riley Blake Christmas quilt...
I kind of wish I just had a little blue or different shade of green to go with it. We'll see what I can find. I think I'm just going to make a crib size for a wall hanging or small throw for the sofa. That fabric in the middle with the cocoa and mittens hasn't been used yet. I can't decide whether to incorporate a block into the front or only use it on the back.
As far as UFO's go, I played around with my Charm Pack quilt from way back. I contemplated working on my string quilt which I desperately need to do but didn't get around to it. However, it is placed in a prominent position on my ironing board to make sure I get it done though!
Check out all the other weekly progress over at Lee's at Freshly Pieced!
Love your embroidery block and the Christmas quilt!
ReplyDeleteYour hexie quilt will be absolutely gorgeous. I love the design so far.
ReplyDeleteFor being at the beach last week you still managed to get a lot accomplished. Love your stitchery block :)
ReplyDeleteI was drawn to your blog post by the red/white hexies, and I seem to have red and white on my mind! But then to see all your other blocks and projects all lined up is inspiring--done while on vacation! You must have way more energy than I do when I go on vacation. Bravo!!
