Happy Friday!
I'm so glad the week is over. I finally got a chance to get some sewing done. I completed two bee blocks yesterday and a block for a mug rug (herringbone - yay!). I also started knitting some golf club socks for my dad for Father's Day - I hope he likes them. I figured it was better than a tie and it will keep me busy. Here is what my day looked like yesterday:
 |
| baby quilt layout - still need to sew these together and finish the top. |
 |
| woven block for simply solids bee - I really like how this one turned out. The colors are wonderful! |
 |
| Foundation piecing Lone Star Burst block for Beeful of Paper. |
 |
| A spy. |
 |
| Finished Lone Star block for Beeful of Paper |
 |
| Herringbone block - not sure I really am loving this block - but it can be turned into something good. |
 |
| Sock for driver - it only has one stripe. I can't wait to make the big fluffy pom-poms for the tops of these. | | | |

Golf club socks were a truly inspired idea. He probably won't like them, but maybe he can be persuaded to use them if some nice cigars are included in the box.
Have a great day and get some work done yourself!
Ooh! I love your Herringbone block! If you can't find a use for it, send it to me! Actually I'd just love to know how you made it.
ReplyDeleteIda, I actually "winged" it. I had found a great tutorial and then I just thought I could make it happen. I will post a tutorial for this block if you would like. Check back next Wednesday, please. Thanks for your comment! Green
DeleteLoving you SS blocks, i'm in the UK Amaranth group :o). The baby quilt is looking fab, really pretty, good luck putting it all together. Hope your dad likes his fathers Day gift.
ReplyDeleteMy fave is the Lone Star block. I was wondering if there was a pattern for one out there in the blogisphere!
ReplyDeleteOh, I love all of your blocks but especially the woven block! Very stunning! How big is your lone star block?
