I have been sewing and machine embroidering like a madlady the last few days, but don't have a lot to show for it. Here is the first half (without the border of course) of my Carolina Straightaway. I think that when it is finished I will like it a lot. I have also been working to catch up on my state flower quilt, and midstream I decided to also make one for my daughter as she seemed to like it. I have caught up the blocks, except today this week's came out and I need to do two of the Colorado blocks. Then, I will need to add the borders to 10 blocks, and I will be caught up until next week's block. Yeah! Meanwhile, I also need to finish the second half of my Carolina Straightaway top and then it's on to the 4 star blocks for the borders and it'll be smooth sailing. Next picture, hopefully will be my next 4 states with borders. Then it'll be 8 blocks done and 48 more to go. Good thing only one comes out a week.
Gosh, you have been busy. I do like the look of your C though, it's going to be great when you've finished.
ReplyDeleteSounds to me like you have accomplished a lot, looks like it also. The quilt is looking splendid, have fun with the other half; can not wait to see it finished.
ReplyDeleteYou have really done a lot!!
ReplyDeleteI haven't been over to your blog in ages to see what you are up too. Your Carolina Straightaway looks great! Love the pictures of all the flowers you took too. I have a bunch of embroidery to do as well. Mostly quilt labels. You have been busy!
