This week I started joining up hexagons for my Field Journal blocks.... I am also still self framing the cream and teal hexagons.... lots more of them to do.....
Machine sewing day with friends I started working on a project I cut up years ago.... so long ago I have forgotten how gorgeous and rich these fabrics are. Luckily I had a drawing of what I was planning to do with them and they were all kitted up in little groups of colours so I could just sit and sew....
These are not sewn together but this is how the big blocks will look.... I still have quite a few of the smaller blocks to make before I do this....
The UFO box it is in is called "Man Quilt" !
My pretty Intermezzo scarf has been neglected... I do need to concentrate on this one .....
However, I did do a few more shells this week and I am over half way.... I started the first ball from the inside and then the second ball from the outside with the hope it will end up sortof the same each end....
Way back in 2011 my local daughter was into browns and I made up this chocolate coloured quilt for her in the disappearing 9 patch block.
Now she is into different colours so we did a trade... I took this quilt back and will recycle it...
The back was pieced with left over fabrics and blocks .....
I had used lots of coordinating scraps and smaller pieces of fabrics - just bought the sashing and border.
Righto, Gotto Go.... it's a stunning late Winter/early Spring day and I have a Caswell block to prepare....
Have a good week....xx
