coalrange1 - 2010-02-28 18:51:00

I am not having much success at posting a message on here at the moment. What was in that coffee I had earlier. Glad to see you are all working hard as weather permits. Been doing a lot of reverse sewing this week, yep right back to the bare blocks. Made error after error. lol

Have managed to get the blocks framed and joined in rows again after reverse sewing cause I forgot to add the end framed on one side before doing the across piece. Just as well I had my darling hubby to check things for me before I went headlong into the next stage.

bhs47 - 2010-02-28 19:20:00

wow, are the girls appliqué??? They look fantastic!!!

liz_taylor - 2010-02-28 19:43:00

Thanks liz. Yep the girls, boys & hearts are appliqued.

bhs47 - 2010-02-28 19:47:00

coalrange1 - 2010-02-28 20:04:00

twilight23 - 2010-02-28 20:11:00

Hey there Twilight did you get your stash management quilt sorted out today ?

Top shelf aye bhs, Twilight oooh we should try it haha gosh we may make something incredible .............lol one day aye we will all get together and see what kind of quilt we could make haha lol

coalrange1 - 2010-02-28 20:24:00

Yep coalrange, I have 7 blocks done from a stack & slash quilt, the fabric is still in its stacks waiting to be cut and made into more blocks. Maybe it will be the next one to get finished.
Hubby has just taken this one for me. I had these all sewn up and three rows joined wen hubby spotted that mistake, so tomorrow it will be back to the sewing machine.

bhs47 - 2010-02-28 20:30:00

coalrange1 - 2010-03-01 07:36:00

twilight23 - 2010-03-01 10:18:00

I am being lazy today, cant be bothered going to the shops to buy needles, cant even be bothered hanging the washing on the line (but hey at 25 weeks bending gets tricky) so, will put washing in the dryer, do the dishes, and then may start cutting out mr's quilt... Am going to do Dissapering 9 patch with the Beatrix Potter fabric as the main squares
