Sewing these together

These are coming together nicely....

I Love the Economy Block quilts I've seen around, so I made one block.  Need to figure out how I want it to look...  this one is a larger block, 8.625" but uses up more material and will go faster.  Although the smaller ones are adorable for a baby quilt...

Pinwheels and Daisies

Luckily I had the pieces cut when I stopped working on this quilt top, so it was a snap to sew them together.  A few more and I think I have a baby quilt!

Working on small projects

This cat face quilt top is put together and ready to quilt, future baby quilt.  The blocks to the left are some I started in November of Pinwheel and Daisy which I stopped for some reason (another quilt mystery I think), so will continue on with them
OOPS, this is the cat face quilt top, with borders...
 
 Finished the valentine wall hanging I started last year.   The light pink at the top between the heart halves should be a darker pink (I goofed), but I guess it still looks like a valentine!  not very good lighting....
Digging out other projects started and taking a look at what needs to be worked on.  I ordered some batting from Connecting Threads, so am using the waiting time!

Thursday's trouble

I finished sewing together the 2 different blocks for Bonnie's mystery, only to discover I am short one block.  Guess I counted wrong!  I'll fix that and start sewing these together - I am nervous about matching all the seams!

slow progress on Celtic Solstice

a little progress and an idea of what this will look like.  not sure I like scrappy green - I would have preferred a singular fabric, but too late now!  I will have to like it!
a few more blocks...
and here's a few more.....
