First Finish
from ... Cat Patches
The sock monkeys win the first finish of the new year. The binding is sewn. The quilt is washed and packaged up for mailing. Here's how it looks.
From the back...
Not sure how I like that white fabric folded to the top as a binding, but I doubt the kids will care.
It was late in the day when I made my way into the sewing room to finish it yesterday. By the time it was finished, it seemed too late to start on anything else. As it turns out, I could have done more because Mike was ... read more

Sock Monkey Business
from ... Cat Patches
It was a dark day yesterday...lots of rain and dense cloud cover. It was a perfect day to stay in and sew. My first task was to check the size on the first Tiny Tuesday block. A couple of you have asked me about Tiny Tuesday, and so I've linked to the Tiny Tuesday posts back there. You can find it on the Soscrappy blog, and it's a part of the Rainbow Scrap Challenge for 2019. Click on the tab that says RSC19 Sampler. I mentioned yesterday that I thought I'd trimmed it too small. As ...

String Piecing Charity
from Becca's Crazy Projects
After I made some of the units for Bonnie Hunter's mystery quilt Good Fortune, I decided to pull out some of the strings for charity quilts. These are leftover bits that I've collected from many of the charity quilts for Annapolis Quilts for Kids.

Sock Monkey See, Sock Monkey Do
from ... Cat Patches
With a lot of help from my feline friend Sadie, the Going Bananas quilt was sewn into a flimsy yesterday.
Surprisingly, the blocks hadn't moved much from when I laid them out the day before.
I've never tasted sock monkey, but I imagine it's delicious.
She was less help later on, but she loves the sock monkeys. She's a cat after my own heart.
When the blocks were all sewn together it looked like this.
Then I added the stars and moon border. The sock monkeys in space will appreciate that.
And then I used the ... read more

Handmade Christmas
from ... Cat Patches
Most of yesterday was spent in the sewing room. I love a good rainy day, don't you? With outdoor activities curtailed for the season, there's plenty of time for fooling around with fabric. The project I alluded to yesterday's post was this little angel, made from a vintage clothespin. She took about half an hour.
Here's how she looks from the back.
This was made from a kit I picked up when we visited a quilt shop in Summerville, South Carolina, just about a year ago. My only comment about this little angel is her dress ... read more

Quilts For Kids
from Baby Boomer Quilting Bee
These eight (8) quilts are being donated through our guild to the Quilts for Kids (Baton Rouge Chapter) The Pinwheels above were hiding in my B'Box (Box of Blocks), waiting for the perfect little project. Finished size: 38" X 44".
Using left-over "Chunks" (those scraps too large to cut up), I was able to create a little Rainbow Quilt and I had this little scrap of Zebra print perfect for the inside border. Finished size: 38" X 44".
Twin patch quilts from "Chunks". Finished size: 38" X 44".
Another Rainbow quilt -- those little fish fit in perfectly. Finished size ...

Scrap Control Update
from Baby Boomer Quilting Bee
With Thanksgiving around the corner, I'm sharing my little turkey (still needs feet). A tiny dent in the scraps.
A "Quilt for Kids" start - rainbow colors of 6 1/2" squares. A couple of borders and then done.
Another "Quilts for Kids" using blocks left over from a Family Quilt made in 2015 -- just enough for a small quilt and reduction of orphan blocks. My goal for "Quilts for Kids" (Baton Rouge Chapter) is almost done - most are quilted, bound and ready for delivery. Pictures as soon as the last binding goes on.
Next goal .... Our guild was introduced ...
