I finished a Red and White Quilt top and started on these stack and whack which I had been dreading for ever loving the look but worried about the complicated blocks. Not too difficult at all once I spent one whole day figuring out a routine!
Thanks

I spent the morning getting a wall hanging to lay flat, then got all the borders on it. I need to go buy some parchment paper to iron on my fusible to do the embellishing. (oops-got the kind with no paper backing-won't do that again)
Then I spent my evening into late night fixing another project. I had a block of the month that I did my own setting pattern for and I messed up the triangles to put the center on point. Didn't notice how bad it was until it was all put together :(. I ripped out the center and reset it. Interesting learning experience. But it's one more FINISHED UFO now!!

I spent the first 3 hours of the day quilting, then had to run to one place and another to celebrate the 4th. I could have been content staying home though. Love to spend a long day sewing and enjoying my music

I spent the day sewing. I made 353 biscuits for DH's Red, White, and Blue quilt. Only 151 left to go! I guess it is time to make Bruno his own quilt. lol! :thumbup:
THis is what happens when I lifted the lid, they are packed in there.

This is what I found on my sewing table this morning. I think he was fgeeling ignored yesterday. I don't get whole days to sew very often.
