I started cleaning my sewing room Sunday, it's looking better but still a LOT to go. LOL

I watched a video for a piecing method that I am going to try today. I drew a symmetrical sketch similar to the video.

Did more de-cluttering my spare room this morning before work. Working toward converting it from a storage/catch-all space to my permanent "quilting man-cave". In the past week I have also finished cutting all the patches for my current WIP. It's nice to sit down and just start sewing without having to stop and cut more.

I kept my great grandbaby for a couple of hours this morning. She is almost walking. I had a fun time with her and she took the hexie play rug quilt home. Her mom, my granddaughter loved it. I think I want to make another hexie quilt but bigger hexies this time. I chose the fabric for it and now to decide on the pattern design.

I started yesterday making zipper pouches from the sandwiched scraps after making a gifted tortilla warmer. One simple flat one, and one with 1" boxed corners. Small projects really help recover missing mojo!
I gathered 8 squares of blues and a light lavender binding. Gonna prep the interfacing today and start creating. Yeah!
The blocks are positioned in groups of 4 for the effect. I am wondering to continue with blues or vary the color of the 4 blocks to make each section a different color. Any thoughts welcome.

I went to your previous post and watched the video link, although it ends up pretty, it would drive me bonkers doing it😜
her blue sample sure looks rich though.

Oh I admire you 100% for piecing these blocks, they are beautiful. No opinions on colors, just excited to see what you create!

Im cutting fabric for my first quilting class on Friday. Im gonna make 100+ geese and conquer triangles, or at least like my fabric enough to fight them to completion.

Well, I am only just beginning to not be an invalid from the shingles. I tell you this has been a terrible experience.
I was able to make three quilted project bags for cross stitching last week. I paid for that in the worst way. But, dog gone it I did it! I am making a set of sewing accessories from some woolen crewel samplers I found in a drawer I was clearing out. I cut them up after I ironed on some stabilizer to the back. I can't believe I did that! But, why not? If they are better used as something other than a wall decorative picture, I would never use now. Honestly, I think they are coming out great! A needlebook, scissor fob, pincushion matching combination. Mostly hand sewing, so easier for me to do.
I have so many kitted-up quilts I want to make. I just cannot move my left arm all that much yet to do them. I am considering taking some of my finished quilt tops to the long arm quilter. I would love to see them finished and giftable.
Then there is the quilted jacket fabric, pattern and threads waiting to make before the cold weather hits again. I think I will try to do a little quilting here and then there so as not to aggravate the shingles too much. In three days, it will be nine months living with this itchy stuff. My house and sewing have suffered so much.
Hubby thought I needed a new cooking space. He has scheduled a kitchen remodel starting in a week. I have been boxing up most of the kitchen in preparation for that. Oh, and washing down what needs cleaning. I love him, but, I think I am being tested beyond my strength. Pray for me ladies, please!
He has just gone through months of chemo. I cannot tell him no. He is such a good hubby. I am just so thankful he is getting well.
