Has it really been a month since I posted last???? I have got to get better at that. I have noticed, though, that I am not the only one. Seems like most of the bloggers I visit regularly have been posting less often. Must be the time of year!! I HAVE been sewing, though! Just not as much as I would like to. I made a second quilt for "Blueberry":
This one is called On the Go and can be found at Moda Bake Shop.
I am wonderfully blessed to be gifted with scraps and leftovers from my friends. Judy gifted me awhile back with all these leftover flying geese she had made:
I wasn't sure what to do with them, so they sat for a while. Then, for my birthday in February, Judy gifted me with this charm pack from Moda:
She hadn't realized it, but they went perfectly with the flying geese! So, I started making these:
I started making some courthouse blocks as my leaders and enders:
But then, I realized how lucky I was because Judy didn't trim the extra triangles off her flying geese:
So, I used them also as leaders and enders and ended up with these:
Now I was working on 3 quilts at once! lol Funny how that happens.
I also made this little wallhanging for Judy to hang in her shop. I just need to embroider the eyes and some little details and bind it and I can deliver it to her.
Then, in April, I started having some more chest pains and went back in the hospital. 2 new stents later (the 1 I had done in August was already 90 % blocked!), I got to come home. Since I wasn't up to sitting at a machine, I started browsing blogs. The I found the most amazing hexagon quilt. I swore I was never going to make one, but oh, this was lovely!!!! So, here is the start to mine:

That's about it. I have a bible study/sew date with Judy and Shelly today and am hoping to finish SOMETHING up! lol Have a great day!!

I haven't been blogging as much either - too many projects and no words to really help them make sense to other people. Love your multiple projects - I have gotten the hexie bug, too -but haven't started putting any of mine together yet - they are wonderful during Nathan's karate class. Sorry to hear of the second surgery - take care of yourself!!! Have fun today!
ReplyDeleteReenie, I love your version of "On The Go" wasn't it easy and fun?! Glad to see you doing better! Miss you! SandraJ - SC
ReplyDeleteGlad the docs got you fixed up and you had some handwork to keep you busy! Love the other tops and hope you are feeling better :)
ReplyDeleteGlad you only had to have stints. Your 'On the Go' quilt seems like my life lately (going every which way). All of your new blocks would look nice put together, in one quilt, too. I keep thinking about starting a hexie quilt. One of these days....

Oh Reenie, I so agree with you about blogging. I am down to one a week and sometimes I get two and rarely 3 a week. Your stars look great. I love the little owl wall hanging. Hum, I wonder if I should make one for Natalie's room? Hope you are feeling much better. I notice you have been zapped by the Anonymous commenters
