New plans!!!



This is the state of the living room floor at the moment. LOL!  I am trying to work on one project each day of the week.  Let's see how that works out!  I started a string quilt earlier in the year, and here is it.  Plaid strings, and hearts.  I have been busy appliqueing more hearts and neglected to piece more string blocks...this was a good reminder to get busy and piece more strings, so that when the applique is completed, I can sew it all together.  Time well spent making a mess, right?  At least I know what I have got going on!!





More of these blocks were sewn.  Getting closer!!!





OK, well these blocks had little strips sewn to the right side...I don't know why I did that...I am sure it was part of some grand plan.  They are becoming their own little quilt...so there!  Stubborn little blocks, anyway, bless their HEARTS!




 Leaders and enders blocks are continuing.  I love these so much!!!





What kind of messes are you making today?  LOL!  I did vacuum and scrub floors and bathrooms before I let myself play, today...hurrah for me!

What a sensational idea! Work on one quilt per day instead of hopping madly from one project to another. I think you will notice more progress this way. Not that it is all about the end product, but it is nice to see a quilt moving ahead. I love all of these, especially that string quilt with hearts. So cheerful! Just what you need to see after a day of caring for people.

Those stubborn hearts are sure cute and will make a grand little quilt. You have fun projects in the works!

Perhaps you were going to sash those heart blocks with plaid and started with the right sides. Everything looks wonderful. I had some very well worn(40 years) pot holders and just hated to part with them. Voila, I covered them with leftover pinwheels and four patches. Amazing how long it took me to think of that. Have a blessed week with the wonderful work you do. Dotti in CT

Hurrah for your housework before fun! But not too much. =) I'm making vortex messes and getting ready to start a new pattern tomorrow with Wedding Dress Blue.

You are such a busy bee. Wish I had your energy. Love all of your blocks, but those last ones are really special!!

I love all your projects! Especially the hearts/strings combo. What a good idea. I have been pretty single-minded about sewing on binding every day and trying to finish up a quilt for the living room. Lord knows why I'm hurrying- it's been 90 deg every day for close to a week!

LOL yes I am always making messes... every day!
But it makes me happy and keeps me moderately sane, so it's all good!

What kind of mess did I make today, I made a mess of our budget by going grocery shopping! So easy to do too!

HOW I GOT MY WIFE BACK HOME WITH THE HELP OF A REAL AND GENUINE ONLINE LOVE SPELL CASTER DR. WALE TEXT/WHATSAPP +1(978) 406-9575.

I am very happy to recommend Dr. Wale to everyone that truly needs help to fix his or her broken relationship and marriage. I found Dr. Wale online I was desperately in need of help to bring my ex Wife back. She left me for another man. It all happened so fast and I had no say in the situation at all. She just left me after 3 years of our marriage without any explanation. I was very worried and could not eat till I went online and I found testimonies on Dr. Wale so I decided to contact Dr. Wale through his WhatsApp and I explain everything to him so he helps me cast a love spell to help us get back together. Shortly after he did the spell, my wife started texting and calling me again. She said that she was sorry and said that I was the most important person in her life and she knows that now. you can also contact him now for urgent help.

WhatsApp/Text him: +1(978) 406-9575

I've had very little stitching time lately. I'm hoping that changes this weekend. Nice projects you've been working on.
