Catchup - March 13th-17th

March 13th

Sorry I'd filed #40 into the older folder by mistake.  Glad #41 is able to showcase the last of the Sunflower charm.



Darn it but I've lost one semi finished block, 1 traced block and my container of back basting supplies - I'm thinking they were in there to finish off tiny circles?  😢 🤔 😢  Honestly I do not know where/when I last had it!!!!



March 14th

Not sure about these colours or fabrics!  🤔


March 15th

Don't miss out!  I can't wait!

If you're in the city, come check out these awesome quilts on display, the quilter's boutique or various vendors with interesting items for sale, maybe bid on the Silent Auction quilts to help a local charity (I've made one for this) or buy tickets for the various Choice Auction baskets!

I even have three of my wall hangings entered and Sylvia has a lovely large quilt and four wall hangings entered.  Competition is fierce here!


Here's the photos of the info card!



Another see sawing on likes or not!  🤔


Well I had to stop and thank goodness it was the end of the quilting on this hanger.  Yes my shoulders were really giving me grief but I'm happy it's done.  I even used my 1x6" ruler to guide my walking foot for fairly even wider than the foot is - it worked beautifully!  No need for some marking in future when this works!!!




WOW!!!  Thank you Melissa for the beautiful pictures!  🥰  It sure shows what a decent display and lighting can do for ones quilt!  WOW!!!

Outside on their garage door!

On a Church pew!!!  That's a new one for mine!

A brighter one on the door.

March 16th

Okay so I’ve sandwiched a Western Retreat UFO from I think the mid-2000s but again no info and can’t find pictures either!  Very not like me, but then with so many camera and computer changes, what do I expect.  All I know this was a stack n whack class for a full sized quilt that I minimized to a table topper or wall hanging.  Also before I learnt the basics of pinning and lining up seams!!!  YIKES!!!!

A bit late but getting done, I could not push myself more!  This is an UFO from Sylvan Lake AB retreats early 2000s!  I definitely can see my growth in precision quilting since this baby!  30 inch square that needed quilting, label and binding.



Nifty try, will do this more so!


Attached my sample fabric whacked up!

A little late, sorry!  Here's wishing you all a Happy

My St. Daddy's Day block.....even with the Eiffel Tower!   ❤
