Finding hidden treasures...

I found these Cheater quilt tops in my stash while looking for a certain fabric.  It's amazing what you find!  These were part of an estate sale that I bought a couple of years ago. 

There's enough of both to make 3 quilts each!  Now will I ever do it?   My thoughts were leaning towards cutting them up and making framed blocks, pillows to match, maybe a wall hanging.  Then I thought maybe I should sell them.  Any suggestions?

And now the progress on my wall hanging...things have been slow, because I made some silly mistakes....

....But a few hours later and a couple of numb fingers there's progress....
Until next time QUILT OUT OF YOUR COMFORT ZONE, and make your fingers numb!

Piddling around....

I spent most of yesterday cleaning and rearranging the studio.  Today it was back to the sweat shop!  I found my HST project that had been laid aside...
...seeing these again inspired me to look through patterns and the internet to find new ways to use HST's.  Well from there I came up with a plan which involed more applique than HST's.
 
After all that work I needed a break.  Snapped a few photos of the flowers that are finally recovering from the horrible drought.
 


Until next time ...Quilt out of your comfort zone!
