Progress ...

43 x 3-1/2" (3" finished" Ohio Star blocks for Line Dried.


All the blocks laid out - now pinned in groups ready for stitching together.


The borders are on the pink and red Cakewalk quilt.  Once the backing arrives this can be quilted.


Last Good Friday we had a stitching day at Karen's sewing Cake Mix Recipe 4 sheets with a layer cake.


I decided to go with a star block design and was so happy with how quickly and accurately the half-square triangles go together.


The blocks are all made and ready to sew into a quilt top.


I've been watching many episodes of "West Wing" lately while sewing - started Series 7 last night and will, once again, be sad when it ends.

Mum has been looking for a few extra things to do, so I gave her the pieces of this jumper to sew together.  It should fit ChaCha in a year or two but she doesn't like wearing wool and has taken a dislike to buttons, so the jumper might be going to a different home.


Had a busy weekend - picked up ChaCha at lunchtime on Saturday, spent some time with Mum before heading back to my place.  The Stitching Girls came over yesterday afternoon and then Mum and I went to the hospital to visit Mum's newest great-grandson who was born on Thursday.  Another little sweetheart has joined the family.

Gee such tiny Ohio Star blocks...
Lovely border on the pink/red quilt top.
Great fabrics used in your Cake Recipe quilt top..
Funny how kids decide wool and buttons aren't nice anymore.
