Saturday I got out the CW buckshot pincushions I began in January. They are all stitched but need to be stuffed. I had stuffed one earlier but I am not pleased with how the top finished so I put them aside while I thought of a better way to finish the top. I now have an idea and Saturday I got out all of the things needed to stuff them. I ran out of pellets after and I will need to use pellets for the last two of them. Then I ran out of stuffing. I did pick up more on Monday and perhaps I will actually get the pincushions finished some time soon.
I also finished my Nine Patch Quilt. It still needs to be washed and the label added but I am pleased to say that it is done at last.
I finished the March embroidery that Kaaren at The Painted Quilt is so good to provide for us. I have a button on my side bar and if you like embroidery look at the lovely ones she has provided for free.
I got the house done for the July Jan Patek 2008 BOM. Now to add the roof and chimneys and applique it to the background.
I finished the April embroidery from Kaaren. She made a notebook cover with her design. I am making a basket cover using mine. Her words at the top or different. I changed them for my project.
At last I got the flimsy made for the next Country Cousin block, the fabrics have been selected and I have started cutting out the pieces to applique.
What a BEAUTY to behold!!! Your mini 9 patches are SOOOOO pretty set on point! I need to make the time to get started, I have hundreds already made up (from when I hosted an ongoing mini swap a couple years back)
ReplyDeleteI’m thinking I will have things
wrapped up this summer after the kids’ birthday parties and then I can get started on mine.
How many did you end up using in your quilt? Finished size lap? twin? queen? thanks.
