Since Mother Nature so kindly tended to my garden this weekend with her natural rain elixir, which in turn gave me a legitimate excuse to not mow the yard ;-), Ive had a couple of days to sew. Because of that, the Front Street Memories townscape wall hanging is ready for Lilly Lucier to machine quilt it. I'll have to take it to her and chat with her about the best way to quilt it.
I also started a blue & white scrappy quilt which I've named The Blue Hour. The final size will be 16 blocks square or about 54" square once the borders are added. The amount of blue fabrics in my stash dictated the size of this lap-size quilt. Should finish it up in the next day or two. Then I have two more applique wall hangings in the queue.
Today I'm linking to
Patchwork Times for Design Wall Monday - a terrific source of quilting and crafting inspiration.
Ohhh I love the buildings - its really an inspiration for me to do one myself!! You could really add a ton of stuff to it! Great job - can't wait to see it done!
ReplyDeleteYour houses are sweet!! We actually got a little rain this morning. Rare. Around here they measure rain by 1/16th of an inch....
