Wednesday Workings, February 11, 2026

 

I am just moving through my 2026 UFO List!  I had so much in work towards the end of the year is partly why.  Krinkleberry is the first of several you will see in the next month or so.  Kerry has several in her queue that will soon make their way to me.

Kontroversy's back is staged on my design wall.  100 10" blocks are ready to sew together.  There are all kinds of prints from the very cute cats to the adorable pigs.  A few wordy blocks and all kinds of stripes and dots are in this back.

The scraps are destined for Moonflower.  Again my Accuquilt Cutter will be used for the 2.5" strips.  Moonflower will also use grays and golds.  I have an abundance of grays; golds not so much, but little is needed of this color.

Before sewing this one I took the easier finish stitching together a bit more fabric to Mistletoe Moment's back.

Another Kitten cross stitch block was finished making it the fourth.  I am already far into the fifth block with only the turquoise yarn to stitch out.

Happy Wednesday =^.^=

Design Wall Monday, February 9, 2026

 

Today was installation day for two windows in our home.  The installers were working until around 3pm.  I worked on binding Krinkleberry during this time.  Missed aqua fit since they were to arrive between 8 and 9am.  They showed up right on time =^.^=  We are very happy with the result.  When asked if we plan to do any more windows I responded maybe when we rebound from the cost of these two!

Not much to show quite yet with Krinkleberry.  I want to have it done for Sunshine Guild monthly meeting tomorrow night.  I will share a photo with you on my Wednesday Workings post.

I have also been working on gathering fabrics with a white background for cutting into 10" squares to make a back for Kontroversy.  My Accuquilt Cutter will be used for this task.  Remaining pieces will be cut into 2.5" strips for the many HSTs for Moonflower.

Finally, I needed to cut a bit more to add to the 2025 Jolly Box panel to be enough for a back for Mistletoe Moments.  The panel was just about perfect in size.  I realize this isn't conventional, but I'm not planning to make another tree skirt or two stockings.  The fabric is printed with the same prints used in the top so why not?

Quilt photos to share with you on Wednesday Workings.

Mistletoe Moments is what I was sewing on Friday at Rosie's.  I had lots done then finished it off on Saturday...up to the outside border.  After getting our home and foods all ready for Super Bowl gathering with Chris and Rebecca; time was right to get the outside borders on.  This is a 2026 UFO from the 2025 Jolly Box at Fat Quarter Shop.  Will be considering names for this one =^.^=

Mom received her gift of a pillow case.  She is always making them for charity, but this time she is getting one as a surprise from me.  Mom loves cards!

Our guests are on their way.  Hope you enjoy the game.  I had two completions Kontroversy and Mistletoe Moments.  Two 2026 UFOs!
