FRIDAY FINISHES, et al

 

June Fabric Journal page finish...
I am calling it 
"Tattered Heart"

Here I've added
the little silk heart that
gifted me in her
bits n' bobs 
happy mail for
my project.
Thanks so much Lizzy;))
💗
I added a beaded flower with a
french knotted center
and then 
couched and beaded the
tattered heart...

Along both sides, I sewed
my version of 
"Falling Stars"
and more  french knots...

The whole piece is kantha 
and seed stitched.

I now have to sew it onto the muslin 
page for my book...
********************

Twenty blocks of Many Trips
are finished!
I've decided that this will be
big enough (with added borders)
to be a decent lap quilt;
and I don't think I can handle
anything larger...
Next:  sew them together...
in blocks of four I think...
not long rows...

************************
I still have lots of strips left as
I had cut enough for 30 blocks, plus
tons of other jelly rolls to be used up!!!
and with that in mind.....

I saw this on klein meisje site
under "Jack and Jill"
which uses 2.5" squares and
strips that i thought I may
try next
↓↓↓↓
I really need to use up all my jellies...
Isn't this a neat pattern?

Also Cathy at (click)
made one of these that is
just lovely...

For the solid in this I have a variegated
roll of turquoises that might work out...
Stay Tuned...;)))

***********************
Tonight's dinner will be
my meatloaf,
boiled new potatoes
and applesauce...
