I finished the clamshell quilting on my Pat Sloan Solstice Challenge quilt. Here it is in a ball waiting on the binding (that I already made!) Sometimes I just like to show the "real" pictures of things instead of the glamorous photos of beautiful quilts.
Yesterday it was on the quilting frame. It looked pretty like this:
I made this scrappy pieced red back for it.
Swing by Susan's blog and wish her a happy birthday here. I'm linking up with the Midweek Makers.
I made great progress on my Good Fortune quilt. The first set of borders are on (but not in this photo.) I also fixed the two red/white 4-patches that were turned the wrong way.
I sewed a few more "seeds" onto my Kim Diehl table topper called Short & Sweet.
I added Bonnie Hunter's Sand Castles quilt to my list of things to do for the RSC19. Here's two red blocks.
I'm linking up with Lorna for Let's Bee Social. Check it out today at Sew Fresh Quilts.
I made two jars of yummy fermented carrots. These are ginger flavored.
I set my Q1 FAL goals. It's basically the list shown below. You can see projects pics here.
