Random Blue Block Mini

 I started working on the hand stitching on this Random Blue Block Mini.


I was supposed to sub for and intervention specialist at an area high school.  The US History teacher reported off unexpectedly. I was switched to her classroom.  It turns out that it was pretty much study hall/make-up work all day for all of her classes.  I got a lot of stitching done.  Glad I brought this project.


This happened yesterday -- Regional Corn Hole Tournament WINNER!


Headed towards another finish, I'm binding on Old Town!  I can't wait to show off the pieced back.


It will be a little while until it is done.  I just started enjoying stitching binding by hand.  All this practice on hand quilting mini quilts has really payed off on my skill set.  I also LOVE these binding clips.  I bought them last year to keep my Bonnie Hunter mystery pieces counted and organized.  They are handy.  Looks like it's going to be another beautiful, sunny day in Ohio.  I'll be outside getting yard and chicken coop things done this week.  I might have an hour or so each evening for stitching.  No rush.  I feel that this will be finished before Bonnie starts the next mystery on Thanksgiving weekend.

I'm linking up with Kathy's Quilts for Slow Sunday Stitching here.

  1. Not many people have their mystery quilt completely finished before Bonnie announces the new mystery quilt. Congratulations to your son for his corn hole skill. Happy stitching!
