Design Wall Monday, February 10, 2014

I'm busy sewing my February UFO.  I need a boy quilt for a great nephew that was born near Thanksgiving time.  This design by Sally Frey called Oasis will do the trick.  Certainly had to change the fabrics to something more appropriate.  I will also be making it a bit shorter, by eliminating the last two rows.  The stars in the borders will definitely stay.  I tried to find a website for Sally Frey without luck.  Kenmar Designs is her company and if you decide you want to make the design she shows an email address fgertie@aol.com.  Mind you I have had this pattern for a few years....

I only have one block sewn up, but lots of pieces ready to assemble.  Besides the dragon and green star fabrics everything else is coming from my stash.

I also took time to separate out the Red Strings/Nine Patch Swap that I have been coordinating.  The swap was designed for parts needed in Bonnie Hunter's Talking Turkey.  I think several of us in the swap plan to make that project.  I'm excited to get mine started.  

I'll have pictures later this week of Kilowatts and Kaptain Khorous finished.  Come back and check them out!  Others are working in their sewing rooms too.  Visit Patchwork Times today and see all the exciting projects.

dragon fabric is so cute and will sure make a nice bright quilt.

Is the dragon fabric the border?
That is a very fun pattern--much more work than I put into a baby quilt. But then most any quilt you make is more work than I put into any quilt! : )

This will be a great quilt. It will make someone very happy. The colors are great. Looking forward to seeing Kilowatts completed. Would love to be there to see the owners face light up.

This will be a great quilt for a boy! I love seeing your flying geese all lines up.

Hi....I have doing a search for this Oasis quilt pattern.....I start this quilt some time ago and have misplaced my pattern, do you have any idea if it is for sale somewhere? I believe I got it as a free download on the Fabri-Quilt website at one time, but it is no longer there. That will teach me to leave UFO's lying around :(
