Friday Fun Day

          Yeah it's Friday, I have a day off and I'm gonna get the yucky chores out of the way, (smog check on the car, but I  HAVE to wash it first), work on my Underground Railroad mini, some FMQ and enjoy some sunshine. In that order!





          I decided there is not enough contrast in my fabric so I changed over to this


          Some of the prints are unusual and I would never pick them but in the mini they will look good and since there is no repeats it will, be very scrappy.  

           Now I need to figure out what to do with the blocks I made in the 1930's print.  Any suggestions?  They are 3.5" square and are supposed to have sashing and corner stones in between.   I still have a bunch prepped so I can make more and there was 4 pieces of each color in the charm pack so I have some options...Just don't know what they are at the moment.


   Back to the machine....Happy Sewing, K

    I like the Primitive Gatherings pieces. As for your tiny blocks, I'm not sure. Mug rugs? A table topper? A border down the side of placemats? A border across the bottom of an apron? A strip down the front of a sweatshirt jacket? Candlemats? The possibilities are endless, I suppose. I don't work that small, so I'm not a good judge of what works at that size.

      I started in on the primitive gatherings fabrics and they are working much better. Thanks for the ideas, for not working small you had lots of suggestions!!
