Yesterday it was time to get my sewing room reopened and I started by ironing all of my Fab Farm quilt blocks and got them up on the design wall. I started by just putting them up in order and not paying attention to placement. After lots of rearranging and consultation with friends, here's the current layout plan. I'll start cutting sashing today or tomorrow. I visited Mom Sunday and she had this donation quilt ready for quilting so it will be the next thing on the longarm. Quilting will be simple since it won't show at all. I'm going to make some more chemo drain bags for From The Heart so I pulled some fabrics to cut out for bags and I've ordered grosgrain ribbon for the straps. The weather here is amazing this week so we got outside a bit to work on this. We had a dogwood tree there that died a couple of years ago. We finally removed the edging, the stump and flattened out the area. I now have a better scene from my sewing room window.
Today I have to return shoes to REI and we have quilt club tonight. Yay! 9/10/2024 10:45:32 am

The Farm Animals quilt looks so adorable. I love the way that the hand dyed fabrics add much to the visual appeal.
