Good morning!!! I have almost finished my mini for last month. I just lack hand sewing the binding down, which I love to do. Hurrah! I added hearts in the red pieces of the borders, as the big red splotches were just too much. I also added embroidery to the hearts, for some texture and interest.
Speaking of mini quilt, here is mine for this month! Or next month? Anyway, the wagon wheel centers yielded some off cut circles...thus, this little circle quilt was born.
I did get three more wagon wheels appliqued. Very scrappy; nothing goes together, which is just fine.
I made a little rug for Memorial Day and the fourth of July, coming up. I have made this particular quilt in the past...just a little thing.
And a tomato! First of the season. It is a tiny thing but is a welcoming of summertime.
*************************An idea****************************
What if you needed, say, 2-inch purple strips for a project you were working on, but did not have many purples? (Just an example). Or what if you needed plaid brown fabrics? Etc... you get what I mean. Would it be possible for us to share our fabrics with each other? A quilting circle of friendship! A sharing of resources. A lot of quilters have a LOT of fabric. Wouldn't it be fun to share with each other, rather than go and try to buy something? Just thinking of using things up, here. A circle of quilting friends!
If I do not have it, I could post it on the blog, and share your email so that people could help you...I bet we could widen and enjoy our circle of friends, and also share our resources, and use them up! It would be great to share, instead of dying with a huge fabric stash some day, which gets sold in an estate sale, LOL!
So...tell me...what do you need? Is there anything specific for a project that we could help you with?
Just thinking here...do you think it would work?
Also, I am having the hardest time getting comments to go to my email consistently. From now on, I am going to answer in the comment below your comment, if it does not go to my email. That way, you know I am paying attention, and very much appreciate the comradery and fun of comments!!!
