WOW May 29, 2013


Another week whizzed by me.  Well Chloe is done with all her garments and I can go back in the sewing room.  I sewed the last few days like crazy. I worked on the applique blocks for the four corners of the lone star quilt that I started over a month ago. I like the way they are turning out. I’m doing a small zigzag around everything so it will take some time to complete.





I also finished the quilting on my challenge quit. I will be adding a piping and facing to this small quilt. I need to go to the store to get piping before I can finish it. 

 
I also finished the second Dr. Who block.  The new one come out today I will have to stich it up tonight.

WOW May 22, 2013


Thing are moving right along with my daughters final line for garment design school.  I have not been able to sew for the last few weeks due to Chloe using the entire sewing room.  She has only one more garment to finish and should be done by Friday.  WOOO HOO so I should be able to sew this weekend. The only thing I did this week was the Fandom in Stiches Dr. Who stich-a-long.  This is my first Block.  The next block came out today so I will have to stich it up tonight.

WOW May 1, 2013


This week I did very little sewing.  The only project I worked on was my challenge quilt.  I have been worried as I worked on this that it would be just too busy.  The two green aboriginal prints on the background are the fabrics that I have to use for the challenge.  Originally I had a different organza for the vase it was to light and I had to rip it off yesterday.   I think the dark green works way better.  I still have a lot of stitching and more applique to put on the round flowers.  Let me know what you think. 


 

My office is on Lake Union in down town Seattle and the sun is out today and my view is wonderful.  I hope everyone has a great week.
