Travel kit

I taking a long flight tomorrow, and have prepared some hexies so I can do some sewing by hand since I have to be without my sewing machine for a few days.

The pair of scissors have traveled with me before, they are tiny and flight approved. Lets see how this project will look when I return!

Block #13 of Blogger's BOM


I finished it last night, and used the nice light today to take pictures.
Here are all the 13 blocks. It will be interesting to see how we are going to sew them together, the instructions will follow next month.

BIMB row #2 is done


A perfect fall day to display my first two rows of the sew along, the last rays of sun were caught before it set.

This year the apple tree bloomed very late, so the apples are tiny and not fit to eat or process. But, they made good support for my two rows!

Halloween Quilt #2 finished

My DH and I took it with us on our Sunday walk in the forest. It was partly cloudy and the light was perfect.



The charity quilt is made for a boy, and the back reflects this.


Here is a detail picture taken inside, showing off the quilting and the multicolored orange binding.


Another detail picture.

 


I managed to finish it well in advance of Halloween, and it will be on its way to the hospital as soon as possible.

Quilting started

Just a quick post to show that I started quilting my latest Halloween Quilt.


The same design, though a bit bigger, in the attic window blocks. I'm doing both free motion quilting and using my walking foot.


I will be occupied a few more afternoon/evenings after work on the quilting, and then it will be time for the colorful binding.
