It took two weeks but I finally finished this "Berry Picking Party" block. I am trying to get all of these blocks done so I can start piecing the rest of the quilt. I want to give this as a birthday gift in May. May seems far but in a quilters world it is just around the corner.
I finished the last block for my "Calendar Redwork" quilt. I have to find a nice red w/ white fabric for the sashing so I can start putting these together. This may be a Christmas gift for someone next year.
I also finished the binging on the redwork basket table runner. My mom will be ready for spring.
I had no time on my sewing machine this weekend. :( I really look forward to a day I can spend in my PJ's and live in my sewing room.
Have a great week everyone!

Love all the stitchery. I also love using 1 color of floss. It makes the job go faster.
As usual, lots done by you last week!
All of it beautiful! I'm looking forward to a pj and sewing day myself. Not sure when that will be, but one can always hope, right?!
