The Little Ghost Who Was a Quilt and More!


Barb sent me "The Little Ghost Who Was a Quilt" for my birthday and it inspired me to whip up a little quilt to match.  
This is an Eye Spy I finished at the old house that I am not sure made it in the blog.  
Hazel enjoyed doing some art work at my house yesterday.  She made a pom pom jack o lantern and then several monsters.  She is three now--time flies so fast!
I decided to machine stitch around the flowers and all for September Golds by Kathleen Tracy.  I then quilted around those same things and got it bound.  I did a single fold binding and figured out how to meet it up.  I like the method and may try doing that on all my quilts (the meet up not the single fold).
Sewed with Becky and Barb today for a bit.  I made my brown RSC blocks (Dakota Farmer) even though brown has not been called.  October is light neutrals which I am not doing.  I did start putting some of my blocks together too.  The RSC is coming along and I have too many blocks already in too many sizes.  Super happy to be using up the half square triangles that have accumulated the past decade or so!

A Pile of Progress!

Last Thursday I sewed with Becky and Barb online, we have a standing Thursday sew time which is nice!  So I decided to put most of the applique on this on by machine and then chain stitched the stem.  No awards won, but I will get it quilted so we can enjoy it this fall.  The pattern is September Golds from Red Button Quilt Company I love her patterns and have amassed quite a collection.  Barb made this one with me too.
I quilted this quilt myself a few months ago.  It turned out alright.  Finally got the binding made and on it a few days ago.  This one was BJ's Sundown pattern.  I love the chain in it and could see making it again.
I finished this one awhile back but do not think it ever made the blog.  Found it on my camera when I was cleaning out my pictures.  Barb sent me most of these leftover blocks (or gave them to me in person several years ago) and I made a baby quilt with them.  

 

Summer Sewing!

I have not been sewing too much this summer.  Playing lots of games and reading lots of books instead.  Barb keeps on trying to get me in th...
