A quiet day

I spent a quiet day yesterday, the anniversary of my son Johns passing.  I let needle and thread soothe me all day.

In the process I completed 19 red string blocks and there is still a pile of red strings.  I think they reproduced while I sewed lol.



Today's priority is finishing the directions for the string stain glass quilt.  Then if there is time I will tackle some sewing.

Sew a stitch and soothe your heart.

Sunday Sewing

I meant to get this posted sooner but, but....

I finished sewing and trimming my four patch in a square blocks.  Now they are ready to assemble into a flimsy, the fun part.


 
Sunday I started a new stain glass string quilt top.  Have two pink blocks done and a whole lot of string blocks.



Back to a few more sprouts.

My Latest Blocks

Here are the latest Dear Jane blocks.  I had most of these completed by last Monday


I also sewed a few string blocks as the string pile is out of control.

I will add these to my collection.

I am working on my COW Challenge quilt today, finishing it up.  What are you stitching?

Court House Steps quilted and more

Yesterday was a productive day. Margeret came over and we sewed ALL DAY!!!!!! We both accomplished a lot. Margaret completed 16 star blocks that she is working, a commission. Me, I had started quilting the court house steps quilt Thursday night. Got two rows done before bed. Yesterday the machine ran all day till around 5:30.



The panto I used was giggle. I am SO HAPPY with the results.


Today I think i will try and string a rope between two trees, clothesline fashion to display my quilts.

last but not least some green string blocks from last Sunday.
