Pinwheels...still in Progress

These are yet to be assembled from the Pinwheel Quilt along. It is more fantastic neptune. I I am still deciding if I want to make a few more to make it a little bigger....there are so many fantastic other blocks in the FlickR group. It is very tempting. I am also thinking of making two more blocks, and then making two smaller baby sized gifts.....so many options....any opinions?

Charming Goals for April

My goals this month are going to be a little more adventurous....

1. Sunday Best Schnibble
2. April Schnibble
3. Finish Neptune Jewels Top w/ Border
4. Use Swanky Honeybun.....I don't really know what the plan is, but I want to make something with it.
5. Use Simple Abundance Jelly Roll Scraps.......these are left over from my Scruffily Quilt. I have them in a bag, I want to use them while I still can possibly purchase yardage. I am determined to use them. There is a Moda Bake Shop Coin Quilt Pattern....or a little tote....one of these might do nicely!

Pinwheel Quilt: Block Five and Six

...and with Block Six, I am all caught up!

Pinwheel Quilt: Block Four

This block gave me a bit of trouble. Silly me, I put it together, without paying attention to the directions, and when I started to look at it, it was wrong. So, though you see only two blocks here, they were each sewn together twice....




See all the others over at the Flickr Group!

Pinwheel Quilt: Block Three

More Pinwheel Fun!

Pinwheel Quilt: Block Two

It took a bit of fussy cutting to get some of my favorite parts of the print actually show up properly in the block, but I am glad it worked out!

Pinwheel Quilt: Block One

So I am very proud of myself. I am only a month behind everyone else, but I have finally gotten a few blocks done! I just know how adorable this is going to turn out! Thanks for stopping by!

WIP Wednesday

So I am actually making good headway on this one. I have about 10 of the blocks done. Assembly required!





So this is a fabulous little quilt from Quilt Taffy. It is the Love U by deb Strain. I do have a tenative plan for when this does get finished. I am about halfway throught the cutting process!



This is cut and ready to sew the first five blocks of the Pinwheel Quilt-A-Long over at Psiquilt.com. Yes, it is more Neptune fabric. But I love this line. It is awesome. I purchased enought so I could make navy related quilts for all my fantastic navy friends (this seems to be slow going)!



This is March Schnibbles. I hope I can finish this one so I can be in the parade of schnibbles. Yes, I know there are two blocks that have the same three bars. Somehow this was acheived randomly. I don't get it. I am not taking them out though. I will just have to make sure to stick them at opposite corners.





This is my problem. I was doing great last night, when the foot pedal cord fell out of the machine. This has been an ongoing problem since before the move. The pegs that plug in had gotten a little loose. The husband made a great fix, and it left me with a few weeks of uninterrupted sewing, but that fix has now come back to bite me in the behind. Seems after 59 years of wedded bliss, these two are no longer *ahem* compatible. As you can see one of those little metal conductors has broken right off the cord, and has lodged itself inside the outlet. Hmmm....now we must get that metal thing out of the outlet and somehow acquire a new foot pedeal cord.

Yikes, what am I to do...so many projects to finish!
