Postage stamp flimsy

After emailing with Karen I decided I was tired of looking at my blocks on the wall.  She was just the inspiration I needed to get going on these.  So this morning I picked out a neutral batik and got busy.

The picture is a little blurry...  Sorry about that.  To finish it I think I will make more 5 x 5 blocks and have them float in the neutral fabric.  It will look great when I finish and there will be plenty of area for quilting.

I'm steadily making the orange peel blocks.  There is something so soothing about stitching them.

It won't be long before I will need to design the rest of it.

Time to get back to stitching.

Saturday Sewing

I was asked about my postage stamp quilt.  Well it's been off and on my design wall.  Currently on...

There are a couple other blocks laying back there. 

My latest obsession is orange peel blocks.  Each is made of batiks and are needle turned.  I can stitch a couple in an hour.  The stem between will be different colors.  Wild and funky just like I like it.

All those 4 patches I showed the other day are being turned into sewing machine covers.  

Time to finish the second orange peel.  Mmmm what color should the stem be?
