Schizo Saturday

Working on UFO's, several at a time...may have something to do with why I have so many. No matter, doesn't make me a bad person right? Just offensive to the quilt police!

Been fiddling with this OBW- the longest part of the process for me. Moving half hexes. Take a picture. Move again. Determined to get the thing sewed together sometime soon, but I can see I am not there yet.

These are cut from a mod witch fabric...if you look closely you can see them. I think it will be called Hexed Witches.

Meanwhile, I am sewing triangles for this UFO whilst I study the movement of the witches.

Makes for an interesting, somewhat schizophrenic sewing day!

Valentine Quilt Top Finished!

We added some borders and some hearts I had made awhile ago...and we had a nifty Valentine quilt top finished! Not bad for a first quilt for a ten year old! It's such a cool thing to see a budding new stitcher so enthusiastic!

From OBX Guild...

Remember that Monday night, 7 February is the Outer Banks Quilt Guild Meeting.

The meeting will be held at the Colington United Methodist Church on the curve on Colington Rd.

7 pm start time.

If you bring 1 1/4 yds of fabric – preferably batik, you can make your own grocery sack with no sewing. (you need a piece of fabric that is square or close to square).
