My sewing machine had to spend a week at the spa, so I've been doing a lot of cutting and hand sewing. I did, however, finish my Prairie women quilt before the end of the month. I attached the borders with my Featherweight! This is much scrappier than it looks in the picture.
Other OPAM projects include my Baltimore Album, and my RSC16 quilt, along with three place mats.
I've also quilted a few small charity projects for a friend, but I can't really count them since I didn't make the tops.
Beginning on Monday, you can enter the Perfectly Pleasing Pincushion Parade over on Ida's blog. She's got some great prizes lined up, and anyone is welcome to join in the fun. It runs until September 16, so round up your pincushions, or make a few new ones.
I'll leave you with a few wildflower and sunflower pictures from the last couple of weeks.

Sunny, it's definitely hard to imagine the scale of destruction & loss in Texas & Louisana; it's hreatbreaking to see it on the tv.
ReplyDeleteGreat finishes there.
Not ce fi she's there Sunny. Living your photos too.
ReplyDeleteYour sewing machine may be at the spa, but you have been a hard working girl. So many projects completed, that must feel very good. I love the garden photos especially the spider web. It looks like fine lace :)

ReplyDeleteYes, we are watching the next hurricane as our SC family will need to make a decision in the next day or so about evacuating. Fingers crossed.
