Baby Quilt etc

Yesterday I quilted this top, well the electronic saddle did.  I love this picture first thing this morning.  It shows the wonderful texture of the baptist fans.  It will be gifted to Sam who just had a son a few weeks ago.


And the back.  



Maestro was right there giving her approval.

And for slow stitching Sunday I'll be continuing stitching down the binding on Liz's quilt.



Be sure to see what other stichers are doing today

Sneak Peak

I have been rather quiet of late.  Working on finishing Liz and Bills bed quilt. I had to add a whole other 12.5 wide section to bring the size up.  These blocks are 4.5 unfinished.

I am supposed to travel to Minnesota the first week of May and Liz and Bill arrive on the 12th.  Next weekend will be machine quilting and binding.

Today I am play sewing for me.  I will have plenty of hand stitching for when the Masters finally is playing on tv.

I do smaller eye fooler quilts....  Can you say afflicted lol.

This one the blocks are 2 inch finished.  It's still a work in progress as it has not told me to stop yet.

Eye Fooler

I attached the last regular row onto Liz and Bills quilt top yesterday.  This picture is a teaser for Liz as she will not see it until it is done.  This is a good representation of the fabrics and colors.  



Disregard the rug and litter box.  I am in the middle of a bathroom renovation and space is limited.



I found this top in the massive block pile.  I have other blocks.  Do I make it bigger or make another with the other blocks?



Sweet Maestro chillin.

Sew something today.

Weekend Update

It's been a busy weekend here.  One day I worked on Liz's red, pink and cream eye fooler.  I have nine blocks completed.  Each block is around 20 inches.  I also have all the pieced sashing and connector blocks done.  Now I need to figure if it needs to be bigger.  Wish I could show you but Liz would peek lol.

I put together another baby quilt, quilted it, bound it and it is waiting for a label and stitching down the binding.



And the back which is flannel.



I finally got an opportunity to play with my mini eye fooler quilt.



The components of these blocks contain two inch finished pieces.  I love this pattern in batiks.  There is something about working on these that makes me smile.  The quilt has not told me how big it will be.  So until then I will happily piece and SMILE!  

I hope you took time to relax and stitch this weekend.
