Design Wall Monday - Celtic Solstice

Ok, here it goes - 

the list of my current sewing projects.

First up:

Bonnie Hunter's Mystery Celtic Solstice

Step 1 - completed!

                    Step 2 - 25 Chevron blocks done (of 100)

I am waiting for some 

yellow fabric reinforcements 

from Judy and MB

to complete the chevron blocks.

Thanks ladies,

can't wait to see you on Saturday!

As with the 1st step,

I have found an Accuquilt die 

that works for the HST - 

and now I have officially become 

a fan of fabric die cutting!

Then moving on to the next project - 

I am trying to use more fabric from my stash

and thought of getting in on

 Judy's "Fit for a Hero" QAL.

All 6 current instructions are done - 

you can see the 2 stacks of the partial blocks:

(Sorry for the stray threads...)

I really love her short 

step-by-step instructions 

and no HST's!

A bit of cutting, some sewing

and you are done: nice!

And last but not least:

Modern Xmas trees # 2

a QAL by Christa:

Having some decision time

for the fabric border selection:

My first version had the red border fabric,

but I really love the green fabric with the Cardinals.

Hm, it might be too dark though,

maybe I can use a smaller inner border in green 

and then a red outer border?

What do you think?

Wow, all 3 projects are web freebies - 

isn't the quilting community the best?

Thanks so much to

  Bonnie, Judy and Christa

for sharing their incredible talent 

with all of us!
