WHAT'S NEW, WHAT'S OLD, AND COMING ATTRACTIONS.....
Remember how I told you I LOVED fun with Barb's "King George" quilt? Well, I found some George fabric and am going to try to make a smaller (a lot smaller!! )
version for a lap quilt. I am titling mine: "Georgie Peorgie"
Here is the start up on my design wall. I have been putting 9-patches together and cutting a bit at a time. It may not end up just like this, but I wanted to get an idea of how my fabric choices would play together...
I seriously love this fabric grouping with the pieces of flags and edges of cherries ("Did you Chop Down that Cherry Tree?" lol
And I wish I had bought MORE of this lovely...yum!!
This will be my big work in progress for a while.
Here is the next block laid out....
AND--finally, our floors are D O N E ...furniture back in and dishes back in buffet.
PHEW--not a ride I want to take again!! But I love the results...
Here's a snippet of the floor, old oriental from DH's Mom and my Mom's China closet....
love, love, love!!
And here is my latest quilt library addition...want to make a log cabin using this method--perhaps bash that pink stash...this is a wonderful book...really enjoying Jera's methods...
great explanations and fun quilts....
Health update: aaargh--will not bore you with anything more after today, suffice it to say that my back is so-so--still icing
my thumb is a toughie to heal--so it'll be a while,
and my poor lil finger cut is healing....
RX: short times at machine and standing to cut...more fabric washing--next batch will be black and whites....and so
I leave you with
Fall by the shore...captured on the way to see Mom...
Hugs to you all and many thanks for your patient commiserations....
