I finished Swoon a few days ago. I'm very happy with it. It wasn't difficult, didn't take long and looks great! It measures 80" X 80". I will be quilting Color My World next on the longarm. I'll probably quilt Swoon after that one is done.
I spent Saturday morning sewing the binding onto Rhododendron Trail. I had enough of the green accent fabric so I decided to use that for the binding. This quilt was a lot more time consuming than expected but it's done now. Amen!
And I'm proud to report that I turned the heel on the second sock that I've been working on for ages! The hard part is over. I just have to keep knitting until it's long enough. Then, I'll just have to knit the toe. Yay!!
I'll keep busy with these projects for awhile. I plan on making small projects until I clear up some of these older items. There are only so many hours in the day and I hate to feel overwhelmed. It feels like winter today. I'm hoping it warms up soon!
Swoon is gorgeous. Your Rhododendron trail is finished. I always feel that way about the mystery quilt, but I love the end results. Love your socks.
ReplyDeleteThanks, Colette! The mystery quilt is a pain but it does look nice when it's done!
DeleteSwoon is beautiful--I especially like the soft blue/pink one!! You have been so productive also finishing up Rhodie Trail!! So pretty...I always feel like the sock has literally turned the corner and is almost done when that heel is turned;)))
ReplyDeleteHugs for a great day--waaay too cold though!! Brrrr hugs, Julierose
Thanks, Julierose! I really enjoyed making Swoon. I'm hoping this second sock goes much faster. I'm still waiting for the warm temps to show up!
DeleteWow, your Swoon quilt is so pretty. I look forward to seeing it quilted and bound.
ReplyDeleteThanks, Jeanna! I'm trying to decide what quilt motifs to use!
