I've gotten a little sidetracked. The main thing I want to accomplish this week is to get all the papers off this quilt and get it ready for quilting. I'm about 75% done but it's tedious work! Country school meets tonight so I hope to bring home some veterans tops for quilting. Once I do a few of those this quilt will go on the frame. But I've gotten a little sidetracked because my scrap bin is out of control. I've decided to spend a few days and see how far I can get reigning this in. I started off easy by putting together some new Mystery Packs. I have a bin of pieces that I cut with the Go Cutter so I'm going to add to this and, later this year, will try to make some quilts from them. It's a start... But there's lots left to do! Plus I have another bin of just symmetry scraps and I want to get those cut up too.

The tumblers in hand dyed fabric will be awesome! Jenny Doan over at Missouri Star Quilting has a video tutorial on a sashed tumbler quilt that’s on my bucket list. 2/15/2022 04:44:54 pm

Your hand dyes are wonderful! Wouldn't mind having those as scraps .... oh, wait, I do! I won a crammed mailing envelop full of your hand dyed scraps and have finally pulled them out to work on a challenge quilt with my small quilt group. It will be interesting to see how they come together. Comments are closed.
