Progress! Hearts & Apron Strings

These rounds of churn dashes & butterflies has been sitting about all done but for 9 of them since 2012 sometime, maybe even longer.   Thanks to a sew day and happy news medically, I finished them off and got it all sewn together.   Now on to the 56 T's!

Utaupia - nearly finished when...

...my arms gave out.  I stressed them too much doing the outer machine quilting and binding all in one evening.   I got through one and one-half sides of the binding and had to stop.  My arms are badly stressed and ALL sewing and quilting is on hold.
After taking these two pictures I had to put it away so I would not be tempted to sew on it.  At least I can look at on the blog for now....

Another purse made!

Last and final Civil War Love Letter block

I am finally done with all the blocks!

Feedsack Squares - Finished

Actually, it's been on my bed for months but I only now got round to taking some pictures of it, this very morning, before work.  
It is wonderfully soft and pliable and has this wonderful ORANGE binding.   I surprised myself by choosing it, never thought I'd use Orange for a binding.

 I like how the clamshell quilting shows up in this photo.  Like it?  I love it!

 

Dear old thing!  "Making the quilts we didn't inherit."
