I have finished my hand quilting on Orange Slice...;)))
I have decided to put this and other RSC pieces away for binding and
finishing until
the month of December...
*************************
Now "Maru-gata Kimmi" is all layered and pinned; so this will be my next
handquilting project...
I really L💖ve that little Kimmi doll...........................
************************
Meanwhile, we have stocked up for the c-virus ...staying away from crowds...
our State is, little by little, closing down and cancelling events and
closing schools--going "online" for students' studies...
Good cautionary measures for a Pandemic event...
We can only hope and pray that we and you and your families stay safe
and healthy....

ORANGE YOU GLAD.....
I am SO so close to finishing up my hand quilting
on my Orange Slice for RSC February...;)))
I will be working on this during the Red Sox Spring Training Game
this afternoon...;))))
I have used 3 different shades of thread:↴↴↴
The outer band (on white) looks like a white thread;
but it is really a light peach thread...
I am so enjoying stitching round and round on this
"roundish"
circle
dresden...
AND
Here is the reverse side↧↧↧
I am using up a VERY OLD fabric that has lain
undiscovered up to now
in my stash
pushed back
underneath my novelties...
And......Why did I put it there?
I don't even recall having done that!!
Those are the unanswerable questions that give me pause....
********************************************
And now, I will have "Maru-gata Kimmi" to move onto.↡↡
Another "sort-of" circular, free cut dresden ;)))
Isn't that little girl print just adorable???
I free cut those blades,
{and sometimes I have to take darts
and/or tucks to
make the shape lay flat};
and then machine applique the outer edge,
hand folding as I sew; and then machine applique the central circle.
My plan is to make one each month in the RSC color of the month
and use them as monthly table toppers -- this is a very free and
relaxing project for me..
So the dresdens will get cut FIRST each month--
out of whatever scraps
are in that month's baggie...
I am hoping I will have enough for each month--
some may end up being very ....very ........
small
rounded
shapes--
we shall see..👀👀👀👄💝
these are.............
A little monthly surprise for me....;))))
*************************************
I hope your Sunday, this first Sunday of Daylight Savings Time,
is wonderful....💖💖💖
