Happy 4th of July 2025

Happy 4th of July wishes to you all. This is a little pin keep that I made from block #51 in Kathleen Tracy's book Schoolgirl Sampler. It is named Patriotic. Perfect for today's holiday. 'Never can have too many pinkeeps, right? Do you ever make any patriotic projects?

Completed: Civil War Mini Quilt 2025

This is my completed quilt for The Civil War Mini Quilt Challenge 2025 at: Kathleen Tracy's Facebook Group. As you can see in this photo, I just was not happy with my choice of sashing fabric. So, 'changed it to the same fabric as the borders. In my years of quilting, I have found that it is usually better to just go ahead and make a change instead of looking at the completed quilt and always wishing that a change would have been made. It is so much easier to makle a change before the quilt is all finished, isn't it? Please continue reading for this little quilt's stats.

Planning on getting this one finished very soon. Thank you all very much for staying with me during my down time. You all are the best!

SAHRR: completed quilt top!

Finally finished my quilt top for: Quilting Gail's SAHRR 2025. Although several weeks late, and after a few changes to my layout, it is done. Thank you to Gail for this very fun SAHRR. Everyone's quilts and quilt tops look fabulous. Hoping to get this one quilted and binded soon.

SAHRR more progress...

Have you ever decided, mid project, to redo a quilt block? The center block? Well, that is exactly what I have done. It seemed like my center Lady of the Lake block needed some more color. Now, the {former} background leaves print has been replaced with a solid julep green. That was not an easy task. Very pleased with the change though. The block needs a bit more tweaking, but I really like it much better now. What do you think about the redo decision?

My health is improving, slowly. The redo on this project is the 2nd time doing any sewing in 7-8 weeks. Getting back in the groove for sure. Blocks 5 and 6 are sewn, just awaiting to be added into the quilt. What are you working on currently?
