Almost there

 

The weekend came and went too fast….having a family with pharyngitis, or I guess, the technical term for ‘throat infection’, all good plans were laid to rest.

DS has been sick with it all last week and guess who he decided to pass it on to????  He is a very generous boy but there are limits!!!!  LOL.   I had planned to get lots of my projects finished yesterday but I just felt like sleeping so…….

……..here are some of my ‘almost’ finishes….!!!!

1.  My Scattered Tiles quilt that just needs to be quilted now.  I’m thinking of echo quilting the hand appliqued blocks and quilting an all over floral stipple for the rest….we’ll see!

Very ‘girly’ and all the fabric was from my stash!!!!

2.  A pair of potholders….

I started with the small projects club of the month over here and these were my 4th month projects.   I love it because I’m learning about (and using) quilting tools and products I’d never known about before….and they’re all supplied in the kits!  Great learning curve!This month I’m using “Insul-Bright” and “Unique Stitch”, two products I’ve never used before but certainly will be again!

3. And finally, a little sneaky look at a design I’m working on for something special.

Can’t show you too much because then it will spoil the surprise!!!!

Hope you get lots of finishes done this week!

Sugary hugs
