This is my block representing our getaway. I wanted to include everyone in my block because it is everyone that makes this a fun and successful time. They really are the nicest group of people and EVERYONE gets along! How great is that?
This is one of the things I worked on while I was there. These are the leaves I made with the Petals Galore ruler. I think this will be finished and put into the Calico Cutters Guild auction. One of my bees is making a basket and we are all making things for it. It is 18 x 18 but I think this could be a nice large quilt too. Put it on the list......
Here is my 12 x 12 challenge for the month of February, sans binding. I used all my scraps and just started sewing.....so much fun and perfect to do around a lot of chaos.
I also started a zig zag quilt. I have been wanting to make one for a while. A draw back to being at a getaway is no design wall. Some of my zigs have no zag......the contrast is just not right. I may just stop here and start all over, I really want to see those zig zags.
How cute is this? I found this online and just knew it would be perfect for spring.

I am thinking I have bronchitis.

ReplyDeleteWow. I absolutely love everything you are making!
ReplyDeleteWhat a great idea to get everyone's signatures!!! Youre really working on fabulous projects!!! I love Zig ZAg quilts and your scrappy zig zag is awesome!!! But I see what you mean about it not being ziggy enough if that's what you want. I keep saying it but get better soon, You have lots of wonderful sewing to do!!
ReplyDeleteLots of goof things. Feel better.
ReplyDeleteGreat idea to collect all the signatures! And I love your 12" challenge, the log cabin block. And the zig zag too. I like it with some high contrast, and some low contrast (no zag).

Oh Kelly, I am looking forward to more on your zigzag quilt. It's going to be a gorgeous quilt!
ReplyDeleteCan't wait to see that 12x12 in person. Soon I hope!
I love everything as usual, lol. I like that some of the zigs and zags are not such a strong contrast, it's interesting to look at.
ReplyDeleteYou are so creative, Kelly! I especially like your zigzag....in a large quilt, I think what you have done would blend in nicely...keep going!
ReplyDeletegreat calendar block and I love your challenge block - so free and fun!
ReplyDeleteall your work looks great and I take it you are feeling better
