Wednesday Workings, December 3, 2025

Part 2 of Lupine & Laughter is complete.  There are 72 each of the two different colorways.  Bring on Part 3.

There was quite a bit to trim off in these units.  The trimming took me most of Tuesday night.  The purple/neutral FGs were the first to be trimmed followed up by the neutral/pink FGs.  I would have liked a bit more variety in the pinks, but this project will come from what's on hand.  Well at least until I can get to a fabric shop!

Although I have no photos to share now, Winterberry is coming along in the cutting process.  I missed needing one more of the Make it Merry line of fabrics.  Shabby Fabrics had it and I will soon have it for Block 1 =^.^=  In the meantime I am putting together Block 2.  

Have a great Wednesday.

Design Wall Monday, December 1, 2025

Well it is the first day of December...just ran through all eleven months of 2025 in a flash.  My quilting sure has kept me busy.  I am so thankful that I found this hobby.  I love a new project and the finish of the one in work.  It would be awesome if all the great projects that have come my way could be stitched.  There is only so much time in a day.  That said, Bonnie Hunter's Winter Mystery is in full production in my home.  I cut out the neutrals and purples on Sunday.

Today has me finishing the pinks.  This shade of pink, I'll call it carnation, is not one that I have readily on hand.  I used more than a few of one fabric to come up with the 72 units required for Part 2 of Lupine & Laughter.  Rosie's is calling my name for carnation pinks when I get there this Friday.

Hope to get done with all the flying geese by Wednesday.  There will be pink geese with neutral wings and neutral geese with purple wings.  A combined total of 144 flying geese.  My featherweight is all set to "fly".  

Happy December =^.^=

Sunday Stash Report, November 30, 2025

Say hello to Month 5 of Home for the Holly Days.  I will be cutting Month 6 once Lupine & Laughter is cut.

My Lupine & Laughter Part 1 complete.

This is the first of three fabrics I located at Suzie Q Quilts for my Winterberry project.

Shabby Fabrics had the other two fabrics to complete the requirement.  The rest of the fabrics will come from my stash.  I have the first block cut out except the fabric on the bottom.  I am anxious to see how this project turns out.  It uses 1.5" pieces which I have an abundance of.

Trying to get into the Christmas mood!  Yes it is dogs, but the similar cat puzzle was already completed a few weeks ago.  I think the cat puzzle was harder =^.^=
