Design Wall Monday, November 11, 2013

Kookaburra is active on my Design Wall today.  I have all the units for the pieced border assembled as well as the four corner units.  After I get some additional small scale black with white print fabrics more sewing can be done to the center.  In the meantime, if I can't get the fabric I need, the border pieces are to be sewn into pairs so I will continue there.  I hope to get by one of the quilt shops tomorrow.  I'm anxious to have Kookaburra finished this week.

I found some time to put down the binding on Koda's Keeper.  I didn't get time to photograph, but plan to do this later tonight.  I'm very happy with how this 2007 Block Exchange Challenge with Canyon Quilters turned out.

Hope your week is a good one.  See other projects in the sewing rooms across the globe at Patchwork Times.

About Veterans Day...
In 1918, on the 11th hour of the 11th day of the 11th month, the armistice with Germany that ended World War I took effect.  Since then, November 11 has taken on special significance around the globe.  Whether we call it Rememberance Day, Armistice Day, Poppy Day, or Veterans Day - as it's known here in the U.S. - it is a time to honor the military men and women currently in uniform and to remember those who gave their lives in service to their nation.  Thank you.

First day is today with 11 designers.  Enjoy the fun!
