TWO STARTS.....et al

 

I began hand quilting this morning--

"It's A Jungle Out There" 

table runner....

The squares are made from

leftover jelly roll strips;

and the backing:

is a  fun Laurel Burch fabric......

[the fabric is much 

more vivid than this photo!!]

This photo shows the LB fabric 

across the top in truer colors.......

I am using this lovely thread

and a Milliner's needle 

[my hands can no longer grasp

small quilting needles]

to hand quilt...

⇓⇓⇓

Such a luscious color that goes well

with both sides....

**************************

And...

TA-DAH....

I began my next little scroll--

I am calling it 

"Summer Memories"

Using up those little cut-offs of favorite 

blue and green fabrics that remind

me of Summertime....

Here is the start already

basted down....

 

The backing is a long piece

of old linen which needles

so beautifully...;)))

followed by this section and

this one

↡↡↡

The rest of the length is pinned in place

out of the way while I baste

it all down before adding my

enhancements

;)))

I've rolled up and pinned out of the way

the rest for ease of working...

All just scrappy pieces that 

I could not bear to

throw away

😉😍

This project is just my fun, 

relaxing, 

"in my lap project"...;))))

So far, I have made four

little bobbin scrolls....

{shown below}

I have them displayed on my 

buffet atop my cherished 

Grand-mere's 

hand crocheted doily....

:))))

Tonight will be an easy supper:

BBQ'd cheese burgers,

 Tom, doing his magic ----

and

I have prepared us a 

German Potato Salad

for the simple side dish...

Y U M !!👌😀

P.S.I am also still trying to 

re-organize my space

a little at a time 

as my back allows...

:))))
