Still on a Break

 With a few exceptions everything I've been doing sewing / quilting has been pretty routine or downright boring. I received a bunch of fabric from the Quilts 4 Kids free table and from my guild free table. Lots of ironing and folding - boring.

Then I had to try to find someplace to put them...lots of sorting, consolidating and labeling of tote boxes - boring.

Part of that was grouping my 5 and 2.5 inch strips by color / type.

Boring.

Finished framing my string blocks.

Still need to make another 25 or so but bored with it so I put it back in a project box. I'll work on it again next year.

Cut out two scrappy quilts from 2 inch and 2.5 inch scraps. Put them in project boxes. Who knows when I'll get back to them.

Made one test block...I like it, okay, not boring.

Made another Aunt Daisy block - I have made half the blocks.

You can see it in the background of the above picture.

Not so boring, although starting to get boring, are the five pouches I cut out and am currently making.

Above are the two I've finished. I only had little bits of these border fabrics and thought they would look good as pouches. Three more to go.

I want to make this.

Sorry for the bad picture. I'm trying to decide on the background fabric.

It's paper pieced, made up of 14 small sections. It probably won't be boring but there may be a lot of bad words said.

Got to babysit this little cutie.

Tilly is smaller than Bella (they totally ignored each other). She was so sweet. I tried to steal her from my niece, but she wouldn't give her up. Definitely not boring.

Back to my blogging break.
