FALLING STARS
I might have to add a lower border--but I canNOT find anything that I like--so for now,
this is hanging in my flimsey closet...
SHORELINE SUMMER
I just love this border fabric....↧↧↧↧
****************************************************************
I had these two pieces hanging up on my wall for over a month...😏👸
so, this morning I went in and looked at them again,
and determined to find borders, and get them to the flimsey stage.
&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&
Now it's time to bring out my Courthouse Steps blocks intended to be a
king size bed coverlet for us....Tom is going to help me to lay them out
on our bed to see just how many more I need to make (or can stand to haha);
I do have a lot of strips sorted for these in little bins awaiting my attention...
The weather has turned hot and humid again after those two lovely
coool, Fall-like days we've had. So in the AC again...$$$$$ for sure...
*********************************************
Tom is cleaning out the window sills and along our double awning windows in our
tv room--it seems he's found wasps building grass nests along them--inside!!
We didn't realize how they can SQUEEEZE into such tiny spaces!!!
We have the wasp spray
close at hand--so far so good... meanwhile....
I was washing spare room sheets and airing out the bed blanket...while sewing;)))
******************************
Tonight will be leftovers: we have on hand: Tuna Noodle Casserole, rice with
Tom's marinara sauce and I made a big salad to share ....
TGIF people;)))
Hugs, Julierose, La Blageuse (flimsey-finishing-euse)



Both quilts are beautiful. Your fabric collection is amazing.
ReplyDeleteWasps are scary, be careful!
Are you airing the spare room bedding for guests to come soon?
love
lizzy
ps. storms again tomorrow? Are you bringing things indoors?

I love the top border on your Falling Stars top. Why not just piece together random squares/rectangles of all of your dark blue scraps for the bottom border.
ReplyDeleteWow, I love the cloud bank fabric above your falling stars! Lots of pretty fabrics in your second flimsy too. Happy Friday!
ReplyDeleteLove the night sky above your star blocks. That is really striking. The border on your Shoreline Summer is really pretty. Look forward to seeing your Courthouse Steps all together!
ReplyDeleteWasps like our entryway. We always have a can inside to spray them when they start building again. Cute quilts. Dinner sounds yummy. I think they boys are ordering pizza and I'll have leftovers - pulled pork and coleslaw.
ReplyDeleteI love both of your blue quilt tops.so pretty. I may need to make a blue quilt.or finish one of the many i have started lol
ReplyDeleteI love both of your quilt tops. The sky at the top of the quilt is perfect! Our air conditioner was on yesterday too. It will take awhile to get that cool autumn air more often.
ReplyDeleteNice job on getting this quilt tops together, Julierose. LOVE how Falling Stars came together!
ReplyDeleteYour Falling Stars quilt is so dramatic with that top border fabric--love it! I am terrified of wasps--hope your hubby can take care of them unscathed!
ReplyDeleteFalling Stars is GORGEOUS! That is one lovely piece - congrats, Julierose!!!
ReplyDeleteBoth these are so beautiful...yes get them finished so you can have such pretty pieces on your bed (says she who has a few flimseys of her own). Watch out for those wasps!I like your supper choices too.
ReplyDeleteHope your quest for The Ideal Border Fabric is successful. I will tune in for the reveal!
ReplyDeleteWow, I heart both of these flimsys!!! That moon print plus stars!! Great border on the second one, to tie it all together!!!
ReplyDeleteThe stars may be falling but they absolutely lifted my spirits :-) Have a good week, Julie. Hugs to to you!!!
ReplyDeleteRe the lower border question - if you have more of that strip of moon fabric from the top, could you cut it so that the moon was removed and then stitch it back together so you would create a border that just had the stars? Just a thought.
ReplyDeleteWe're getting the odd wasp in our apartment too - not sure how they're getting in.
