Sewing up a Storm....(pun intended)

A long wait at the airport

gave me plenty of time to plan

what sewing I was going to tackle

when I finally arrived home!

First up, Debbie's MCM bee block...


Rolling Diamonds by knottygnome


Do you think there is enough contrast in it?

Next I pieced all my Scrappy Sandwiches together...


I'm looking forward to quilting this soon 

when I get backing and batting.



I have my binding ready though!


Finally, my Liberty cushion...

Before stitching it together

has its final stitches completed.



But I will save the full reveal for another day!


Did you have some sewing time this weekend?

Happy sewing!

  3. Your Scrappy Sandwiches quilt is my fav. The colors! I've said it before, and I'll say it again, you have a true gift for choosing colors. Glad you could return home (safely) with some time left for sewing. Know you've missed it. You're creating lovely things.

  16. Glad you got home safe and sound. Perfect contrast in the bee block - as there is differing scale as well. Those itty bitty pieced blocks are really effective aren't they? Were they with scraps? And has the scrap pile diminished?

  24. Debbie's block looks fabulous! Your quilt top is really wonderful, too, and I have seen the finished pillow (one drawback to "batch reading") but it's fun seeing it in this stage, too.
