March was a busy and productive month.
The 3 challenges were:
1. Use white scraps and make blocks....done....and sold.
2. Piecing red, white and black blocks...made 80...done. They are on eBay
Other things accomplished in March...
..Quilted a heart quilt for my sis
I made the Sweet Pea house block for March
And embroidered and quilted the April and May snowman wall hangings for the studio.
I had these snowman faces half fused....and got the other half fused. They are now on eBay. They are all different.
The new sweater block for Bona Lisa came out, and I got that appliqued.
I made a quilt from some Dear Jane blocks that my sister made. She rejected them for her quilt, so I rescued them. haha
Another half done project is now complete. It uses 16 patch, 9 patch and rail fence blocks. Now it just needs to be quilted.
I got a few more blocks made for the pantry quilt.
dog bones...
garlic...
tomatoes
April challenges are now started.... they are...
1. Make blocks with red selvages. These are actually done...and sold. I started a couple days early. haha I actually made mostly red, then added pink, orange and yellow blocks. Put them on eBay as warm color selvage blocks. They were sold in hours. Made 120 blocks.
1a.. Since I already finished the red selvage blocks, I pulled the next one for May....blue selvages. I am working on those now.
2. Embroidery....to finish all the monthly snowman wall hangings for the studio. I am done through May, so 7 more to do.
3. Piecing. I'm making a tamale bag quilt. We eat tamales that come in cloth bags. I have been saving the bags and now have 30 of them. It's time to make a quilt. For the past 3 days I have been taking the bags apart. It's a chore. It's a thin muslin, so I have to be careful not to cut the bag when taking the seams apart. But, I have a plan. I have about 8 more bags to take apart first. Then fuse a thin interfacing on the back of them.
That's all I got. Told you it was a busy month.
