2 more UFOs completed
I think I started the hats about 15 years ago and just never finished. I found them in the box and decided to finish it up. I used left over fabric for the blocks and the strips and left over binding strips I decided not to use on another quilt.
I practiced stippling which I am getting better at with each quilt.
The embroidery blocks I think have been around about 20 years can you believe time. My daughter saw this and remembered helping me embroider the bears.
I did purchase another fat quarter to finish the red checked squared and I found the cutest fabric for the binding and the strips. It is the embroidery stiches fabric.
I practiced the quilting and it is a blanket for the puppies. They have pretty snazzy blankets for their crates. HAHAH!
I'm about done with a new lap quilt for the bedroom done in Shabby Chic fabrics. That fabric has been around for about 2 years now. Getting better.
I'm on to get some of my kinda ugly fat quarters into something.
I keep reading articles about using up all the scraps but if your like me I am so sick of looking at the fabric I just can't get myself to use it again. I've been donating it to Goodwill where I hope someone thinks Wow! what a great find. Maybe someday I will have picked fabric out that I will want to use every inch of it, just not there yet mine mainly consist of "why did I pick that up?" What was I thinking???????
