My sister is at it again. she cannot resist the cuties at embroidery library. in the last few days i have done these dogs for her....have to admit...they are cute.
I love the little guy with the laced up boots.
Next up for her are the Baltimore Quilt blocks from Anita Goodesign. they quilt up nice. there are 20 of them and they take an hour each...so it will be a few days to get all those done. here is the first one.
And in MY corner..the Tokyo Subway Map quilt is on the frame. i really thought it would go faster. i think that EVERY time...i need to quit that. LOL i have gone around all the tracks and am now doing the background in a square meander type thing. there are LOTS of stops and starts and thread burying. i was going to quilt the tracks with thread to match each one but have now decided to just do them all in gray to save time and what's left of my sanity.
And i am definitely on a selvage kick these days. the newest brainstorm involves the box of neutrals. i cut 10" blocks and will do half of it with selvages. the difference this time is that i am going to use all of the same selvage on each block...as far as i can. i have 36 blocks cut out...that will make it somewhat 60ish inches square. then i will see if i go larger or just add borders. i know i have enough selvages for about 32,597 blocks. siiggghh!!
OK. break is over...back to work. it is now raining and the weatherman promises snow for tonight and tomorrow. not looking forward to that. i hope to get to Illinois tomorrow for a funeral...we'll see.
Stay dry and warm.
