A Great Weekend of Sewing



I finished the next Casserole block - love this one! I have now made SIX!


The pattern calls for 9 blocks for the big quilt or 4 blocks for a large wall hanging. I got to thinking...I could use a twin size quilt for Sadie's big girl bed at our house. Mind you, she's still in her crib, but I know it won't be long before she makes the move.

I took some measurements....hmmm... the top two thirds of the quilt would be a good twin size! That would be SIX blocks! Boom! So all I have to do now is sew in the sashing (which I cut today). Boom, boom!


I also finished another Birdsong block. This makes five done.


Here's the group shot.


I spent the last week mulling over the half square triangle quilt. Remember I wasn't happy with the plain borders? Yet I want this quilt to be on the modern side. 

I pulled out some dark gray strips and sewed them on two sides. I'm happy now! I felt like adding this to only two borders was the perfect solution and it was easy to do. Now I have to order some minky for the back - this will be my lap quilt and I want minky!

I spent some time this afternoon sizing up what's left on the Cheddar Bow Tie quilt. I counted how many bow ties I have left (only 28). Then I counted the cut pieces I have at the ready. I only need to cut a few more, so I did that. Sadie likes to sit in my lap while I make these blocks so I'm ready for her to help me sew this week.

Hope you also had a wonderful weekend! Continue to stay safe!

    In Dec, 2021, I invested the sum of 19.78 BTC with a fake blockchain impostor I met online, all the money I had saved up since 2014 got stolen just within a Month, my whole life almost crumbled, to crown it all my FICO score was so bad that I couldn't even afford securing a loan to help my kids, but everything became better after I joined a forum online where I met people testifying about HACK VANISH, a hacker who has been helping thousands of people all over the world. I decided to reach out to him via the following contact shared on the platform Text/Call/WhatsApp: + 1 (747) 293-8514, Email: hackvanish@ gmail. Com, they responded and requested for all necessary details needed in carrying out my JOB, to my greatest surprise my bitcoin was recovered and my credit report fixed, FICO score was boosted to 783 across all 3-credit bureau's, all negative items cleared just within 8 days. I can't stop expressing my profound gratitude to this great team of hackers, I strongly recommend them to anyone in need.
