It was my turn to host a small gathering at my house, so I ( with expertise help from my dear husband) have cleaned and organized. I always feel so bad, because my sewing is scattered all the open room next to the kitchen. It makes me feel guilty.
Spring is arriving slowly and very gradually in Wisconsin. I have not seen the robins, but others have. And on our drive, I definitely could tell the willow trees have yellowing branches.
And on the way to Madison to see the international fair of ethnic dancing, music and crafts, my dear husband and I stopped at Sun Prairie for a fabric at J J's Stitches. And ended up getting fabric for a baby quilt gift and an applique quilt. So excited...
On Friday, I finally felt like sewing and created a door quilt for my mom for Easter. All that is left is the binding, eyes for the chick and a few details.
Then I saw a real simple small quilt and started cutting 1 and 1/2 inch strips. Fun to create!
I just need to embroider a winding border and add some tiny flower buttons. Well and quilt it, of course.
And then I had extra pieces, so I started some new blocks which then got me down another rabbit hole:
I am trying to make them spring-like colors, but use more of my reproduction fabrics.
It sure is fun to create.
