This is one of those weeks that I am sewing on so many different projects that I don’t feel like I am accomplishing much at all.
I did start Celtic Solstice, Bonnie Hunter’s new mystery. Â Everything is cut out and I am on my way to getting the blocks sewn. Â I’ll have them done by Friday when the new clue comes.
I didn’t really plan on my blues being light blue until I opened my blue drawer and I had a whole bunch of light blues that needed using up. Â I figured what the heck and cut into them. Â I don’t know at this point if that means my other colors are going to alter or if they will all stay the same. Â I think the yellows are going to be gold and the greens…they’ll either be light greens or browns…I haven’t decided. Â We’ll see when the next set of directions come. Â I like this whole process to be stress free.
I was a little distracted by a project Kelli and I are working on using this… Â It’s an awesome new fabric line coming out from Moda called Chantilly.
The project is scheduled to be coming out in a magazine for 2014. Â Kelli is doing some calculating.
We sewed like crazy on Friday and ended up getting a quilt top together. Â We got backing together for two quilts and the binding together for two quilts two. Â We have another quilt over half way finished. Â I love it when we can tackle a deadline project so quickly.
This one isn’t due to the magazine until March but we really need to get working on some of those projects as I have to get sewing on Kelli’s Double Wedding Ring quilt for her wedding in March.
Believe it or not…I have another deadline project that I am sewing on right now too. Â It keeps life interesting.
Today I am hooking up with Judy at Patchwork Times and Bonnie at Quiltville.
Make sure to stop by tomorrow for your “Try it on Tuesday” Giveaway.
The two of you together are a quilting powerhouse! Amazing what you accomplish!
can’t wait to see the light blues in this quilt
Wow, lots of quilty stuff going on at your house – and you still managed to be #1 linky on Bonnie’s blog. Good luck with all your projects – back to mystery sewing for me…
Way to use your Stash. All this and a wedding coming up! You are BUSY!!! I’m happy to be sewing along with all the Bonnie fans around the world.
I love the orange with the lighter blue — really pretty!
I really, really like the look of the light blues with your oranges and neutrals. I don’t know how you juggle so many projects at once!
Same at this house….busy, busy, busy! (Wouldn’t have it any other way!) :)
The oranges and light blues look great together! Way to keep up the good work. I seem to have lost my “sew jo” lately. I need to find it, as I started Celtic Solstice, too.
I like your colors! I was considering using lighter gray/blues, I had more of those in my stash than the navy’s I ended up using. I linked up too. I am #188. It has been fun seeing everyone’s fabrics. Have a great day.
I really love the light blues instead of the darker blues. Gee, I’m doing Bonnie’s colors but they really are out of my comfort zone and I so like what you picked:) Perhaps next time!
