We've been going out and about more than usual the last few days. We drove down to Richmond to do a bit of shopping and have a nice lunch out. We stayed masked except when we were actually eating. I enjoyed the time away from home especially since we haven't been going out all that often.
It didn't cause any problems with what I wanted to get done this past week. Yep, I handled all the goals I wanted to.
2/14/2022
✅ More sewing on Looking Glass quilt — ready to be laid out & sewn together.
✅ Do first clue of Stop Tossing -- All done
✅ Make more √Red Spider Webs, RSC blocks, and √16 patches -- Hum, I want to get one more RSC block done...
✅ Bind Baby Bricks -- done and turned into guild. See the finish here.
✅ Work on SAHRR -- I added the rest of the border from the star round. I'm behind on the rounds but at least I have an idea for appliqué but I haven't decided yet.
✅ Cut up some smaller scraps -- I churned out some triangles & 2" squares from some small pieces of fabric hanging around.
Here's what I'm going to be doing this week. I won't have as much sewing time because of some activities.

Here's what my design wall looks like this week. I'm lucky to have a big wall to put up lots of different projects. (Well, until I put a whole design up!)
Here's a close up of a couple of projects I'm working on.
I'm off to do a bit of surfing--you never know when something will inspire you.
Happy Quilting All! Bonnie
that is an interesting version of the Feathered Star I made one once that has a cardinal appliqued in the middle and then of course I started a new version last month and then tossed the block this month in the trash because of problems with it I might try another next month. I too have enjoyed getting out a little bit more now that covid is getting less and less in my area - do people wear a mask a lot in your area still? My sister in Williamsburg says a lot still wear them there
ReplyDeleteYou've got lots of lovely blocks on your design wall! So much inspiration! xx
ReplyDeletelove that feathered star...anxious to see more of that project!
ReplyDeleteI like how you incorporated the star into the white border on your SAHRR. And which project is the churn dash red blocks in the upper left corner for?
ReplyDeleteWhat a fun design wall!!!
ReplyDeleteYour design wall provides a host of potential. I really like those spiderweb blocks! (Are they AccuCut or paper-pieced?) We never thought how great it is to get out until we can't!
ReplyDeleteFun projects on your wall. I’ve been venturing out more — always masked even though few others are masking. Positive numbers have dropped considerably in the last three weeks.
ReplyDeleteExcellent award with getting your goals accomplished! Well done!
ReplyDeleteBonnie you have so many lovely projects going on on your design wall. It certainly sounds like you have a busy week ahead of you. Have a wonderful week and happy quilting.
ReplyDeleteLove all your variety of projects going on, Bonnie!!! You have me holding my breath on your SAHRR!!! Have fun at the quilt show!!!
ReplyDeleteHi Bonnie! So glad you got to have a nice lunch out. Masks aren't required here anymore. The only places we have to wear them are doctors' offices and hair salons, and I feel like I'm slowly suffocating!
ReplyDeleteYou really did well on your goals - I'm jealous - lol! Pretty fussy cutting on your churn dash. I love your SAHRR star so much. I'm behind on my rounds too - I sure hope to catch up this week.
Thank you for joining in with To Do Tuesday!
You've got some fun projects up on the design wall. Hopefully you've already checked off most of your list for the week.
