I can tell you it's not those cookies--
they are A L L gone....
Y U M M M M 😁😂😃
In keeping with using my stash and leftovers....
I am making my favorite Ojos in just whites,
off whites, and low volume colors
--all my cut offs and leftovers
from sides of quilts, bindings, etc...
All on 4" square telephone book papers...
I really do like this kind of sewing--
almost, but not quite "mindless"
and so relaxing...
😇😊😌
I want to machine sew, but I am not in the mood
to be able to decide on a project these days...
and so, this type of sewing is just perfect...
********************************
Below is my final binding project for
this year...
My Christmas Ojos is
all set for me to use this year....
Here is the "Plum Pudding"
fabric background which really
shows the dense quilting...
I 💓how this came out and also that lovely fabric....
*****************************
Below is a photo of my secondary work area where I
do my fabric journals and hand stitching...
Talk about "stuff"---right????
I mean it is almost
always messy for sure!!
I am working on a little Christmas project for our
holiday decor right now...
BUT
more about that later on....;))))))
fabrics alongside my three cabinet
drawers full of threads
here to the left of where I sit --
so as to be easily
accessible...
I am still having to be very careful about
how much I actually sew and for how long
these days...but I am stubbornly refusing
to give up...
I hope to get to hand quilt
a couple more sashings
on "Sunrise, Sunset" tomorrow...
Those plus the borders are all
I have left to do...
****************************
With the advent of these colder gay
days, and early darknesses
I decided that I needed to pull out my
brilliant colored Kawandi
to brighten things up....
Here it resides on my cocktail table:
"Sunset over the Ocean"
is my first Kawandi project--
I really love how it came out...
AND...
FYI:
I purposely pulled the side edge few rows
of threads tighter than usual to give it a
"wave" look for the ocean feel....
↷↶
You can see that effect here.
What fun this was to make...
I plan on making a ]nother Kawandi i
n the New Year
for my dining table...
I hope you are all managing to stay warm
on these colder days and enjoying your
sewing projects...
Hugs, Julierose
