I made another bow tie block (and cut a bunch more too) and then sewed the row together and added it to my top. Unfortunately my featherweight has a smaller seam and so my row was a bit longer. I eased to fit with lots of pinning but think I may have to take the row apart and do some block trimming before I put it back together. Sheesh, I will never quite get that down.
I was in a puttering mood so I sewed my pinwheels together in the colors of the rainbow. These will eventually become the border on Jack in the Box. I did some organizing of leftover bits and pieces and sewed this together leftover from about six years ago when Kathy and I made a Jewel Box quilt in a mystery. It is likely to get made into a dog quilt or dog bed.
Kathy decided to join in on the fun of the mystery I am making online. She needed fabric so we went with the leftover line that I have made two different quilts out of. I prefer these fabrics to what I went with...mine is a QOV and hers we aren't sure yet but the colors are right. She has already sewed up clue two and is caught up for tomorrow's clue!

That darn quarter inch--so pesky. Glad you are injoying your feather weight though. Rainbow quilt is looking great.
Yay Kathy!!!!!! And you bet--those colors are right. LOVELY.
And yay you with all your tinkering. Impressive size to your Cheddar bowtie already; how large do you plan to go?
