I also spent a small amount of time making up a pillowcase from a kit I had cut out in January. I bought the fabric last fall specifically to make pillowcases for Ryan's Case for Smiles. But I bought way too much fabric. I'll probably make some this year and more next year.
I did make progress on most of my goals. I started and finished a customer quilt yesterday so time I would have spent on my goals was hijacked. I also figured out I wasn't putting the plus quilt together correctly so I'm fixing that little issue and trying to decide whether to make it longer than wider. But it's already about 70" long and it is suppose to be a lap quilt. That seems long enough!

That's it for today. I'm linking with Oh Scrap, Monday Making, Main Crush Monday, and Moving It Forward. I hope you join me at looking at what is being worked on across the Internet. Enjoy!
Happy Quilting All! Bonnie
❤️ the runner and the pillowcase. I have trouble with directional fabric when making pillowcases. You did well with your goals last week.
ReplyDeleteDon't sweat the directional print. Kids won't mind at all. It's just us OCD adults who can't hack it!! Cute hearts.
ReplyDeleteI guess I'm one of the OCD adults. I fussy cut my pieces for pillowcases when I use directional fabric. Cute hearts. Did you see the heart digital patterns on intelligent quilting today?
ReplyDeleteThat rabbit fabric is darling! That will make a child smile, I'm sure. Your hearts look really nice, too. Will you try to finish it by Valentine's Day?
ReplyDeleteBeautiful job on your hearts table runner. I think I used stitch in the ditch on one I made last year that was very similar to yours. Pretty fabric on your pillow case. Happy Valentine's Day!
ReplyDeleteLove your hearts! Those turned out so pretty. At least each pillow case uses up a good amount of fabric each time you finish one. Those bunnies are really cute. Hope you've made good progress on this week's goals.
