Little projects here and there but nothing BIG complete or worked on this week...
I started quilting the wedding present that I am working on and found that the backing wasn't laying flat so I un-pinned and re-pinned my 'sandwich' to make sure it was flat with no wrinkles... Have to say that 'un-pinning' is right up there with 'un-sewing' on my list of favorite things to do!! Augh! It's ready to go again and I plan to quilt it on Sunday!!
Over the past week I completed several blocks for the Comfort Quilts at my guild SVQG. Here are a couple of pictures.
2-12"x12" finished size |
9 of the 10-6"6" finished size |
Can't wait to see what they do with all the different blocks our members create!

Love that heart!!
I love the heart! I would like to try it too...
I love those blocks for the comfort quilt!
Recently we made the walker bags as a guild project. I didn't get in on the Ronald McDonald house project.
They are working on a quilt for the show in 2013.
One lady is collecting star blocks for quilts of valor.
I don't know what the next project will be.
