Woo! Anyone else feel like things are moving at a million miles an hour right now? The school schedule sure does take up a lot of my time it seems, but I have been managing to get some creating done in between mom duties. Do you want to see what I’ve been up to?
I got all of my Jelly Roll strips made into Rainbow Quilt blocks! I got 13 blocks out of the roll, and apparently the poodle decided I was taking a picture of her and not my design wall of quilt blocks. Its Ok, her bed and harness fit right in with the color scheme.
I took a creative detour after getting the Rainbow blocks done and used all of the chopped corners to make some teeny Half Square Triangles! These are 1.5″ in this photo and will finish at 1″. So tiny!!
I just got my rainbow quilt top sewn together this morning. This was my design wall as I sat down to type this post.
My plan was to make the extra block into a pillow, but I happened to set it on this cute little bed I just found for The Darlings and now I am thinking it might become a tiny bear quilt instead. Also, please ignore my messy cutting table, creativity is not always very organized! I ordered the backing and binding for the full size quilt this morning, with enough extra to make this a mini quilt OR a pillow. I will see how I feel once the fabric arrives!
My friend Mitzi and I went antiquing this weekend and this was my haul. My plan is to turn this all into Darlings accessories!
My Louie The Lovebot pattern has not been available for some time now and I have been getting lots of requests for him to be available again. I started rewriting the pattern last June (*ahem*), but didn’t manage to get him finished until this week. I am getting the pattern typed after I write this post, then I will re test the pattern, and I should have him available again soon! Woohoo! And, he will be FREE!! Even better.
And working on Louie has reminded me Valentine’s Day is coming soon. I started on this heart project and I am excited to share it with you soon!
As I look back over it I got lots of things done, but I definitely was not feeling very accomplished before laying it all out in one post. It is amazing how hard you can be on yourself and your brain tells you that you are not doing very much when you actually are. Or, at least that is how my brain works….
What about you? What have you been working on?
