I thought I would do a quick update since I am going to gone all day Friday quilting with Sue Patten (and a trunk show in the evening).
Saturday I have an all day gardening expo to attend. I have to admit I'm really feeling the Spring Fever now that the lake opened up !
 |
I gave up on the traditional piecing for my square in a square units.
I'm half way through paper piecing them for my Devil's Claw quilt.
A painful decision, but totally necessary! |
And I'm a few more wool hexies closer to the end:
 |
| Holly and Swirl |
 |
| Wreath |
 |
| Christmas Tree |
 |
| Mistletoe |
 |
| Poinsettia |
Have a great weekend!!
Those mystery blocks would make a great quilt all by themselves.
ReplyDeleteMy favorite of the little hexie ornaments is the wreath. Very pretty!
Hello Karen! I just love visiting your blog to see what you are working on! All your projects are always so lovely! Hope you have a great time at both at your day with Sue Patten and the gardening show! Sounds like a great start to the weekend! :) x
ReplyDeleteI rather like paper piecing, and I know that I can get better results with that method, so it's worth the extra time and effort for me.
ReplyDeleteI struggle with those square in a square blocks too. One designer suggested using full squares rather than triangles for the corners. I need to try that as paper piecing is not my favorite though they come out great.
ReplyDeleteSo many little pieces in your mystery quilt!!
ReplyDeleteI can see the end is very close with your hexies.
Your Thimble Creek Mystery quilt looks very interesting! Love the new wool blocks.
ReplyDeleteGreat projects - ALL!
ReplyDeleteSpring fever is a tough one. I just want to be outside all day long!! Hey maybe I should bring my sewing machine outside!!
