Design Wall Monday

More Minnesota Stars finished. This pic shows 18, I have 4 more waiting to put up and 11 more to finish. That makes only 33. I thought I had 35 cut out so I guess I'll have to do 2 more. That will make a twin size quilt. I made a huge mess trying to use up these scraps and get things under control. I cleaned up today so I wouldn't be tempted to take a photo and post it! Three or four times in the past couple of years I have knocked out a few quilts in an attempt to reduce my scraps but to no avail. I have some ideas for at least 8 more so I'll just keep going and going....

Design Wall Monday

I haven't been very motivated to get anything done lately so I started cleaning up my sewing area. The fabric scraps are getting out of hand so I cut up fabric and started some new blocks today. They are called Minnesota Stars. The pattern is a free download from Connecting Threads.

Design Wall Monday

Finally something new. I have been working on finishing projects that have been hanging around too long. I was using this project for leaders/enders. The pattern is called Fabulous Blues and is from Evelyn Sloppy's book 40 Fabulous Quick-cut Quilts.
