Daily Quilting Report

 

Another basket block today.

Yesterday I listened to a minimalist expert tell me that it is wrong to want things. Yeah right. Like that goes down well with a quilter. I did think I needed to make my work table a bit neater so I put the dolls behind my computer and divided the table so quilting things were on one side and doll dressmaking things were on the other side. It's much nicer now.

I also thought that I might put some stacks of my doll clothes fabrics at the back of the doll dressmaking side so I can be thinking about what I will design next. Never a thought of getting rid of anything. I would say that I am not addicted to buying things just because I get an email or see an ad. I also don't think I could live without having many different choices of threads or trims or teapots and cups and tea.

I don't think I will ever be a minimalist! But I do like to have my things neatly arranged most of the time.

Cheers,

I was a bit tired this morning so I decided to just tackle one of these basket blocks. The little HST are made by sewing diagonally across the two pieces of fabric then cutting it many times. The seams are a pain. They seem to go every which way. So just one block today.

I have to do 3 more basket blocks, free motion stitch the appliqué block and then quilt it. I already have the next kit but I won't be starting that until I finish this one. 

Cheers,

Today I did my quilting later so my sewing wouldn't disturb my visitors.

I have done the second two tulip blocks in pinks.

This morning I managed two tulip blocks. They have a left and right so it takes some concentration to get the pieces right.
