Anyone have time they can give me?

I found two hours this morning and I locked myself in my sewing room. I make this weeks Civil War BOW and another make up block. I also worked a little on my "Blue Ridge Beauty" quilt. (no pics) I have made 996 2 patches, the next step is to put those together to make 448 4-patches. I do not look forward to ironing 996 2-patches, summer is finally here in Southern California so I am sure that won't happen until October.


During the week I stitched this months "Kitchen Fairy" BOM.
I also finished another band on "Vignette in Stitches". I have another 4 bands prepped and will work on those the rest of the month.
That's it! Have a great week everyone!

Great projects--civil war blocks look good--some really nice fabrics in these blocks. The kitchen fairy stitching is so cute! And I've already told you (more than once, I believe) how much I love the Vignettes in Stitches.

You crack me up Yvette. The way you said "That's It" like you didn't get much done. I love all your projects and particularily love the fabrics used in the first block :0)

I'm hoping that your week is a good one Yvette!

The Vignette panel is amazing and so is the kitchen fairy. I need an embroidery lesson from you I think. And you are fast at it.

Let's not talk about the Civil War blocks...I'm so behind on mine, but I love yours.

Robin said...

Dude. That's a lot of 2-patches. :P

The stitcheries are gorgeous. :)

WOW look at you go on the stitchery BOM. I took mine with me on vacation and only touched it once for a very short time. I'm needing some time too. Or maybe you could just stitch mine too???? Love your kitchen fairies. Isn't that going to be one cute quilt? I need to get crackin on mine I still have a few blocks to stitch. Next kit is ready to roll by the way.

The kitchen fairy block is so cute. I love strawberries. Both to eat, on quilts, and on stitcheries.
