As the title reflects, I was fretting over my projects. (That and the darn Olympics.) And although I was sewing a little each day, I am behind in getting things done especially for my online sew alongs.
But I am so grateful for my quilting friends. Encouragement was what I needed to get going. And your comments rang in my ears as I sat down yesterday to sew.
THANK YOU!
So my first big AH HA moment was when working on my SAHRR round 4. I finally put the blocks next to the center, and yes, I needed that coping strip.
I then worked on arrangement of blocks around the center. My idea of having matching colors near the corners bombed. Oh, Well...
But it came out. The coral/peachy stars are brighter in sunlight.
And then I got back to embroidery. I got cold and didn't want to move from under the quilt, so I just pulled the gnome out from my basket next to the couch.
Lastly, a mug rug. So cute for Valentine's Day.
One was given to my daughter and this one to a very good friend.
Progress.
More to come!
And quilty friends are the best.
Hi! Those are such lovely projects. I'm glad that you got unstuck. Your quilt is coming along nicely.
