Design Wall Monday

So glad that on Saturday 
we had a sew-day 
organized by the GLHQ.
As always I had a great time 
and got tons of sewing done:
The Hashtag quilt top is my February UFO
and I am all done - with time to spare
wohoo!
(pattern from Camille's Craftsy class)
Had some good times 
matching the outer border print,
but it worked!

Next project:
sew the blocks of "Fit for a Hero" -
free pattern by Judy at Patchwork Times.
As you can see
I am still missing the 4 corner blocks,
(and borders)
but am glad to have the blocks assembled
into the quilt's 'middle' section.
At least now I can't loose 
or misplace them any longer...

And in preparation for 
in May 2014,
I have started to sew HST's.
For ease and speed
I am using triangle paper
and it is perfect mindless sewing
after a day at work.
It may not look like much,
but these are 192 HST's (of 504 needed...),
size is 2 inch unfinished.

  5. The hashtag quilt is wonderful! Glad you finished that one up, way too pretty to be a UFO. Over 500 of those itty bitty HSTs needed, good job getting a nice chunk of those out of the way.
