Polka Dots




My progress on my Pieced Hexie quilt is coming along......this month I am Queen Bee in the Get Your Hex on Quilting Bee.   4  blocks are back from the busy bees...the bow tie and baseball near the bottom right corner came all the way from Switzerland!  ( I kinda name them, silly I know).  Every time I finish a block I have a new favorite.

  You can see the rest on my Flickr page and check out our group too.  So many talented ladies, I can't wait to see what's in store for us next month.

 I did get some more basting done this weekend and it will take me all week to sew these 2 inch babies together.  I love my mini design board from Lori Holt's tutorial, it's so easy to carry around and the pieces don't get mixed up or fall off.  It does catch A LOT of thread....not so pretty in the pictures, but I still love it.  I will say don't iron on it cuz I scorched my other one duh! Iron too hot!!
Off to play with my fabric.... Happy Sewing, K

Spring is Here

It's spring in my neighborhood. Flowers are starting to bloom and jasmine perfume is in the air. Baby bunnies are starting to come out of hiding but I can't take a picture they are too quick.
