Design Wall Monday, July 27, 2026

This is Confetti.  A 2026 UFO from a workshop at RD2CA earlier this year.  The top row is complete.  The next four rows are sewn into blocks.  The last row is waiting for the generosity of Pam.  Much of the fabric was scraps from Home for the Holly Days BOM that we both participated in.  Pam is on the last of the parts putting her project together.  I have lots of reds that I would need to double up on; here is where Pam's scraps come in.  For now my Confetti is napping until I can meet up with her.  This project doesn't use a template and it is real tricky to get the arrangement right.  If you see anything out of place due let me know.

There is always another project to work on =^.^=

Sunday Stash Report, July 26, 2026

This charity quilt is made from mom's stash with a little help from mine.  I am at the point of putting the sashing together.  Purple is what the binding will be; it matches the purple in the sashing.  There is one more project planned with the pinks from this project.

Since Wednesday my Accuquilt Go has been busy cutting layer cakes and charm packs.  The project is with the cuddle quilt fabrics of Sunshine Quilters.  I am taking a break from all the standing that it takes to sort, iron, prepare and finally put through the cutter.  The results are great so far.  We will be selling these precuts at one-quarter the price of yardage.  You can do whatever you wish with the precuts; they aren't only available for the making of cuddle quilts.

Not much to share on any of my projects.  Not any change to stash either.  Above all I am trying to stay cool during this hot and humid weather patternwe are in the midst of here in San Diego.

Wednesday Workings, July 22, 2026

I enjoyed very much working on Klarity.  The purples were just soothing to sew with.  It is probably the cool colors that I am enjoying during these very hot and humid days we are experiencing of late.

Next to share with you today is the Teddy Bears cross stitch project.  Last I shared photos the bear with the blanket was not finished, but as you can see this cutie is done.  On to the next...

I have been working on this 2026 UFO, Confetti.  I had it layed out nicely on my design wall until a windy day two days back blew off lots of blocks where they had been placed.  Oh well, nothing is concrete until it is stitched together!  I also finished more blocks so perhaps the fill-ins will make it a little bit more pleasing.  Until this project, as yet unnamed, comes down off my design wall I won't move on to my mom's project #3 or my next project which is butterflies and pastel flowers.

This table runner came back from Kerry a few days ago.  I'm busy on the binding; about half way around now.  Wanted to share with you the cute quilting design in very bright green thread to match the fabric in the center and border.  Mom's going to love how I am using her stash.

Along with the table runner came Kommitted.  I want to bind it in this solid blue fabric, but I don't have enough.  Will be checking for more before I move on.  I did put the sleeve together so it is ready to go.

Have a wonderful Wednesday =^.^=
