Well I had a wonderful weekend. *smile - smile - smile*
Lot's of laughing, lots of talking and sharing of ideas and sewing tips. And way, way, way, too much yummy food - and chocolate. One of the ladies made peanut clusters and every day brought us some. Very Very good!
Okay the leaf was done on Friday - Quilting and binding. I showed that in the previous post.
This green table topper is what I got done on Saturday.
It is only the top, I wanted to sandwich and quilt, but there were no empty places to sandwich, so I went on to the next project which was putting together the ABCD Quilt. It may need a little more work before I can show it, so I'm not including the picture of it right now. But I trimmed all the blocks arranged and then sewed together.
I had to add one block and a little section - put the top together, put the grey border around it all and then not pictured here, I made about 55 of 96 - 3.5X6.5" blocks sewed them together to make a piano key border to go around the outside. It will be king size when done. :)
All in all, I got a lot done and so happy I went. Some of the ladies that were staying at the Motel, would get up at 4:00 in the morning and start in again. I might consider staying next year. :)
Well - I still have 3 full weeks to finish the rest of my goals for the month. And since I got such a big jump on them, I might do pretty good this month.
Have a great evening,
Blessings,
Lynn
I love your colorful quilt, especially the way some of the traditional blocks are worked in around the others. Very cool!
