Little Projects

There is only so much quilting I can do at one sitting.  I still prefer piecing to quilting, but I'm sticking with the quilting...even if it kills me.  The entire time I am quilting, thoughts of new projects and ideas fill my head.   It is very distracting ;-)

My Bernina for quilting

You would think I was my daughter trying to avoid homework ;-)  

I rearranged my studio....AGAIN!  

I ordered my Christmas cards...had to figure out a Plan B since my oldest did not make it home for Thanksgiving...hence no recent family photo

Change of address cards were designed and printed...took longer than necessary with my limited PhotoShop experience and printer issues

A trip to JoAnns was necessary to use the 50% off coupon....bought a HUGE bolt of batting.

In between all this some quilts were quilted....partially.

My Janome for piecing.

I moved my Janome into my studio as well.  This way I can easily work on a smaller project when taking breaks from quilting.  Usually my Janome is either in its travel bag, on the kitchen table or on a desk in the laundry room.

This scarf was one of those little projects.  I used a tutorial I printed a while back.  (I'll try and figure out where it's from and post the link.)  This is a quick and easy scarf to make.

The front is made from scraps.  The background fabric is leftover Moda Grunge from Basic Grey that I used in "Quilt #1".  I love this fabric!!!  I need more!  The red is Plume; the green is Nest, and I can't remember the middle fabric's name.

The pattern called for flannel backing, but I used this really soft corduroy I found at my LQS on Black Friday.  I think it is a nice touch.  I tried it on, and it feels warm and cozy!

That's two now from my list I never thought I'd get to ;-)  Not bad.

Have an amazing day!!!
