I've sewn my legos strips in rows of three each; and have set them onto
long muslin pieces.
This way I will quilt each one separately
and not have to
pull the whole goldarn thing through the machine....
A quilt-as-you-go-by-row,;)))
Next, of course will be pinning each row to ready it for quilting...i will also
be figuring out what kind of quilting I want to do...that is a puzzler....???
***********************************
My big day lily plant finally bloomed
and it's a very pretty one..
.
I don't know what color you could call it as it is so
varied....
Aren't those colors amazing--there is even yellow and mauve and cream
inside...and a little bit of orange on the anthers...
Light pinky-mauve...
dusty rose, cream
yellow, hint of green
l
and I love those ruffled edges...
AND................
there are about 20 more buds ready to open...
Well worth the wait...💛💚
*******************************
We are in a heat warning here--I
haven't poked my nose out today...
staying in the AC...
Soooo,
I also sewed up some more snowballs:
Here is my collection so far.....
I didn't realize that I've made FIFTY-FOUR!!!
And this will be the fill-in on the last top right block:↓↓
Dark teal squares with pink and green triangles...I only had 3 of the teals
so I added the closest color I had in my box;
As you can see below I STILL have a ton left--and those are only the
solids....;000
Good thing I really like making these, right?(heh heh)
Well that is where my projects stand right now....
I hope you are staying cool....

Side borders are sewn on Stone Soup
Now to decide on top and bottom; I was thinking of:
This lovely rich print...to pick up the purples....
and sort of anchor it all together...
**********************************************
My Snowballs are amassing...slowly but steadily....
I have 6 more blocks set up:
Here:
All ready to be trimmed and sewn into blocks...
I am running out of little corners..
but I think that rows of 4 wide by 6 long
will be big enough with borders ...we shall see...
👀
AND
speaking of "seeing":
I am told by my eye Doctor that I have eye issues that are going to be
resolved by some laser surgery in late March and early April--in office
and "not a big deal",
so they say....;0000
In the meantime, my vision has really taken a beating--
my eyesight is like looking
through a dirty car window right now..ugh..
so I am trying to limit my reading, sewing, postings, crosswords--
all the things I L O V E to do , etc etc
what a....................................
BIG DRAG!!! ;((((
*******************************
A N D .........on a brighter note 👀
My Red Surprise amaryllis is throwing up an entirely new set of
shoots after its prodigious first blooming ;)))
Will there be a flower in there?
Anxiously awaiting while coddling her along....
**************************************************
My posts may become more infrequent until my issue is taken care of...
be assured that I will be following your postings, a few at a time,
each day...
