Over the weekend I spent quite a lot of time reviewing finishes, UFO items, not cleaning as much as I should have, and sewing off goals list. Here are a couple of pictures of what I worked on last week that weren't listed on the goals list.
First up a project that must be an antique. There are 56 1.5" squares pinned on a a folded piece of muslin. The three missing have already been sewn together. As I was plowing through my various UFO bins and boxes I ran into this. I figure it is probably 10+ years old. I eyed the very nice red ball pins and the muslin. It dawned on me I could put both things to work doing something else. So, I'm stitching this as an ender project. I've gotten two and a half rows done. I have no idea what I'll do with it but it will get done sometime in the next month or two.
Love your brights and white squares, pretty and fun project! Great goals done ;)
ReplyDeleteThe 4x4 quilt block looks like a great way to use up all those random 2.5 inch squares we all end up with. I'll have to check out the MSQC tutorial.
ReplyDeleteI’d struggle coming up with “brights” for the blocks. My scraps are mostly navy, reds-burgundy, and greens - even my stash is limited to those colors, plus grey. Pretty boring!
ReplyDeleteHi Bonnie! Great job on the red and black/Dalmatian quilt. Also, I love your ender project - I wonder what you're going to do with it when it's all together? The 2.5" blocks are nice and colorful - I do the same thing with leftover scraps. I use them to make doll quilts when I have enough of them. A R/W/B quilt - I have a hankering to make one myself. I am leaning toward using the Road to Oklahoma block. Good luck with your goals this week and thanks for linking up today. ~smile~ Roseanne
ReplyDelete4 X 4 seems to be a really cool quilt to do mainly by using lots of small scraps. Thanks for the tutorial link.
ReplyDeleteWhat a treasure you found with those little 1.5 inch squares! I'm going to check out the 4x4 tutorial - love the brights you're using.
ReplyDeleteLove your scrappy quilts in progress. Reminds me of my 1.5" squares Postage Stamp Quilt that is still in many pieces. It has been a leader and ender project for two years. I have lots of pairs to sew into blocks. This slipped so far down my mental "to-do" list that it has been lost in the shuffle. I need to write and cross off my list as I sew along like I used to do. You are sew organized. Thanks for the inspiration and for sharing in my linky party ... :) Pat
ReplyDeleteYou've got a great list - not too complicated. Your quilt is off to a good start.
ReplyDeleteThose blocks are going to make a nice quilt!
ReplyDeleteThanks for the note about a new link up.
