I can strike the donation quilt off my list - managed to get it quilted, bound and washed yesterday afternoon. FMQ continuous lines through the blocks - quick and effective for covering large ares quickly.
And then I got started on the baby quilt - a Disappearing 9 patch, made using the charm pack of It's a Hoot, I won from Kaelin over at The Plaid Scottie. Added a few extras from my stash, and got all the blocks done, and laid out. I'll look at them for a while, but will have it quilted and bound by the end of the weekend.
I love it when things come together! And a three day sewing retreat this weekend - wahoo!
And today I had my amazing friend Laurraine from Patchwork Pottery came over, and she was helping me re-organize my sewing space! I love it! Still sorting and organizing my fabrics, and no pictures right now, but I have floor - and room for my design wall! Yayyy!
Happy quilting!
