What I’m Working On

I feel like I’ve been pulled in a lot of different directions at once. There’s a pretty good reason I feel that way, I think. I have been trying to get as much done as I can at my shop—I have a couple of new customers, and I don’t want to get behind—but there are other appointments and commitments that I keep having to leave and take care of. In all honesty, some are optional….like an invitation to lunch. Haha. 

I got Karen’s breast cancer quilt done and had a good amount of fabric left from the back and the binding. I texted her to ask if she wanted me to make a pillowcase from the leftover fabric. She was happy for me to do that, and I didn’t mind.

Today is the Cuero quilt show, and I needed to get Janice’s quilt trimmed so I could take it to the show with me. 

I added the closeup to show the variegated thread I used. I hope she likes it! I’m also taking scissors and a knife with me to get sharpened. The scissor sharpening man will be at the show. 

I finished a couple of other quilts that were picked up Wednesday night after church.  I made an attempt to work on a couple of my projects. I have been busy cutting and fusing key fobs.

They aren’t near finished. I get tired of them and can only do so much at a time. I did find a jelly roll and some yardage I forgot I had.

It’s the Walkabout fabric line from Moda from a few years ago. It was a quick trip to the quilt shop to get a pattern and some background fabric.

I’m happy to report this is all I bought while i was there! I got the background fabric all cut, but I ran out of time before I got all the jelly roll strips cut. Maybe this afternoon if I get back early from Cuero.
